misterNNL Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 I see a fair number of positive posts about builders wishing someone (anyone actually) would offer a travel trailer kit. Is there a person out there on these forums that has the ability to offer a set of computer generated set of plans that could be used by those with average skills to build their own trailer from scratch ? Now that would be a great service to a lot of builders. All we need is for someone to step up and do it. maybe the pieces could be done on one of the Krick Kut paper crafting machines that are being used to make some really amazing parts seen here recently.

espo Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 Great looking trailer. Reminds me of a Scotts or Scottsmen brand Trailer from that era.   Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

misterNNL Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Been watching the weather channel and it looks pretty nasty in the northeast today and tomorrow. Time to hunker down and just get through it. Trust me in six months this will all be gone! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been wanting to build something like this for a really long time. i have interest in doing a diorama. Â Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
