Mike, I can't find the post anymore, but how is that frameless tear going that a couple were building from the internet plans? It seems very much like the ultralite, interested to see their final result...

Dear Mike,

Geez, there was a lot of good info on that post. Didn't Madjack clean it up and repost it once before? I think it had some analysis from Andrew.
Regards,

Guy

Hopefully after I get back tommorrow, I'll get the doors built, throw the under carraige together, and put the skin on within the next week. Finishing the interior will be an ongoing process, but it'll be usable for cedar hill mid march.

I need a design for a light weight trailer that can be pulled by a compact car that is cheap and easy to build.
If you could tailor your plans to that sort of need then that would be awesome.
I Cant figure anything out so I am going to have to deal with tenting for another year. :thumbdown:

Derek,

Most of the details are in this thread... but I've gone and pulled some stuff into a document... Natually this document has a long way to go, but it's good enough to build from... (I'm building from it as we speak!)
