I often have folks who ask me about 'trailer' type arrangements like this. I'll bet you could do amazing things to reduce weight with the 'skin and bones' construction technique discribed in the video responce I posted. Good luck with it. That's a pretty cool deal!

This method is different from the frame-of-reference related to building a house. In building a house, your framing is the main structural element, in this method the plywood panels are. Their purpose is to provide sufficient meat in the corners for a structurally sound joint between the panels. Using this method it's easy to build to an Explorer Box that weights under 400 lbs Vidoecamper, The Explorer Box has been designed with a corner block building method.
