Just thought I would share an idea I have for a tiny trailer for two. Features include an enclosed head, shower, full sized bed across the back that converts into a two person dinette. The galley slides out of the side and a standard 10' ez up creates the covered patio and outside galley. The design also calls for a removable roof section so you can build/store it in a standard garage.

Hey Bob,
That's an interesting design. That's the first time I've seen a shower worked into a TTT design. That corner is actually a very good place to put it, and if you put up a shower curtain in the little bathroom, it would actually work out pretty good. I don't know what you plan on doing with all that gray water, but you must have a plan!
The 24" width for the porta potty area seems a little tight... I would probably try to make that a little wider. I've got some scrap wood, I'll build a little box this afternoon and see what width works for me. I might just have to borrow your shower idea for my Tidget.
Yes, you heard right... so far my winter midget will look a little bit like a T@B, so I have to take the T and swap it for the M!!! The interior design is all up for grabs though! But I really like the shower idea. That's the one thing I hate at campgrounds is waiting for showers. I may not actually put a porta-potty in my Tidget, but I'd leave space there for one!
The other idea you have, the pull out galley is good. Just enough room for a grill stove! Maybe you could add a hinged counter next to the pull out galley?
It seems like you have a lot of room between the counter and the bed/table area. Can you tell me how much that is? On the tab here are the dimensions that were quoted to me...
"I measured the depth of the counter as 20 ½” and the floor space from under-sink cupboard to table-top as 23."
In the next few days I suspect that you'll have some competition for your design... as I am working on something, Bev is working on something, and Andrew is cranking out designs as fast as he can move his mouse!!! We might have to get him a new mouse ball soon, as I suspect he's wearing out the old one!!!

The quality is remembered long after the price is forgotten, so build your teardrop with the best materials...
