With the same focus of Tent Topped Camping Trailers tailored to smaller, fuel-efficient vehicles and designed with DIYer’s in mind I’ve created a concept trailer I’m calling the Explorer Pod. From feedback on the Explorer Box, a few themes have bubbled to the top. First, it looks like a box, hence the name Explorer Box. Second, I don’t want storage shelves, I’d rather use removable storage box to organize my stuff.

For the Explorer Pod, I wanted a more off-road look and some angles. The front galley area has been removed and replaced with a nose box. The main rear storage area is enlarged and sized for Arko-Mils lidded storage boxes.

As with the Explorer Box; a glue and screw construction method with corner blocks.  The screws are used as clamps during gluing and left in place for added strength.  I use trim head screws to minimize the hole size and avoid the extra step of counter sinking the holes.

Check out the build, we'd enjoy hearing your thoughts and feedback.
