I haven't been able to find what I am looking for in a trailer. My thoughts are a relatively compact trailer (7'6" wide x 20' long x 7'10" tall), relatively lightweight but with room to sleep a family of 4 when the kids want to bring some friends along. I doubt if I will actually build one but if I did I was considering something like the following. I have it sketched out with 2x2 tubing. I am thinking it would make a good day trailer for snow mobiles or quads with an accessible shower and toilet when the wings are folded up and then be able to fold down the beds for a good weekend trailer.
The fold downs could fit 2 king mattresses on each side. My thoughts are to have feet facing in allowing each person easy bed in/out access without having to crawl over anyone. I would use canvas to enclose the sleeping area probably with a single support hoop. I could partition the beds on each side with a piece of canvas between the beds. I could then further use canvas to cover the interior openings making 4 individual bedrooms offering a bit of privacy.
I was thinking about two enclosed rooms at the front of the trailer where the lady is standing. One for a shower and one for a toilet. Between the two doors I would put a sink allowing it to be used while someone was in the toilet room and someone else in the shower room.
I haven't figured out a kitchen yet but I was thinking of an external kitchen.
Storage space seems greatly lacking. I was thinking of possible ceiling mounted cabinets. Maybe some floor cabinets in front of the beds.
Other than the fold down toy door I haven't figured out where to put another door. I might have to shift the wings forward to allow for a side door. Or maybe just put a swinging door in the middle of the fold down door to allow access with the fold down door up?
Just kicking some ideas around! Feel free to comment.
