My new trailer.
Took a lesson from one of the younger folk that reside with me, about this techno. stuff, so I am hoping that this will work, if it does not , it's not my fault.
Hopefully there will be some photos included with this.
They might not be in the correct order of the descriptions, but hopefylly it will all become clear , if not to me, maybe it will to you.
1st one, is the basic lay out of the under pod storage box ,which will house the Tent Bed, with side storage bin for longer stuff like a tent pole, or tools and other bulky or dirty stuff.
The ply top with the pod will lift up from the side in order to access the long side pocket.
2 one .
This is another view from the front, it is planed that the bed tent will slide in from an opening door which is accessed ftom the rear.
3 rd. one.
Basic idea with the 12mm. ply on top with the pod in position.
4 th. one
Rear view with the rear access door open in order to extract the tent bed ,and or other items such as the portable cooker, water, folding stool, or anything else without having to lift the pod from the side.
The rear door will have storage built into it, approx 800 by 150 wide by 100 mm. high for small items such as, warm beer supply, cans or dehydrated emergency food, cooking utensials, the afore mentioned stove and its fuel supply, and the myrid of other small items that will inatevially be aquired as necessary along the way.
5 th.
Another view from the side towards the rear.
6 th.
Top and pod moved sideways in order to show the longer side compartment which will be accessed when the top is lifted from above the wheel.
7 Th.
Top and pod still not fixed down, But pod opened up for stowage, photo from the front.
Other work still to be done is Fixing of the tail lights etc. provision for the esky at the front, possible storage for a spare 5 litre or so of ermergency fuell supply, I still cannot decide if that will be necessay, and probably some other items that I have not thought of yet, one just came to mind, that is , a spare suitable 12 volt motorcycle battery, as a possible spare whilst touring , ( sealed Lead Acid) complete with its own interegated charging circuit, powered from the bike, a special supplementry circuit ,this will be used for supplementry lighting as well as running a small 150 watt inverter for charging the android and or any other battery operated devices ,
No doubt there will be quite a number of modifications , and remakes of my origonal basic ideas , so if any one has any comments about the concept or anything that has been found to be usefull in practice ,your thoughts will be appreciated.
Cheers , Winston 66, Northampton.
