My Attempt At An Overland Trailer

I am planning on making a Overland Trailer from scratch early next year (2014) once i have moved into a new place with abit more garage room!

I have researched designs for a while now and have finally started to design mine

Originally i am looking at something along these lines...



But with everything hidden away in storage

Anyway... After a few hours of messing around in Google Sketch-Up i hae come out with this....

Designs may chance but this is the basics (with out much details) of how i want it to look like

No eBay APP ID and/or Cert ID defined in Kunena configurationThis one on ebay may give you a few ideas too buddy. like the design so far

Nice find

Mine will have a roof top tent too (hopefully)

Its going to take a while to make... mainly because i am planning in making the panels out of aluminum to make the trailer as lightweight as possible... So it will take a while for me to save up for the sheets of ali...

The frame is going to be made out of 50x50mm and 25x25mm box section to make it as strong as possible to take the weight of two adults and a week worth of camping equipment

The trailer is going to have:

Built-in Gas plumbing for two propane or butane bottles that supply a dual hob gas burner
Batteries for both 12v and 230v power supply as well as lighting for lighting up the camp site and lighting up the inside of the trailer
An CB Radio with a small aerial tower for effective Base to Vehicle comms
A front toolbox with sealed storage of x2 20L Jerry cans (Or x1 20L Jerry Can & x1 20L Water Can)

Looks abit more like a trailer now rather then a red postman pat box...

Some go ideas on here, I looked at the UEV 490 till I saw the price :whistle:
