AT travel trailer

The AT travel trailer is a design of a (very basic) mobile home. It was inspired on Cory Eichbaum's Ownless travel trailer (see http://www.geotectura.com/New/Projects/PrintPreview.php?Project_Number=335 ), and its main function is to provide a sleeping accomodation for people on the move; either by motor carriage or motorcycle. The waste heat otherwise escaping via the exhaust pipe of the motorcycle/car's internal combustion engine is reused for heating the trailer. Also, portable water can be tapped via the tap at the back (potable water is stored beneath the seat. Non-potable water is also stored and used for showering. The backpack container is a container for the backpack and can be locked; the travel trailer itself can also be locked, to provide safety when parked outdoors at night. In case the car or motorcycle towing the trailer do not have a internal combustion engine (and hence no waste heat), a electric powerplug is also available and allows to heat he water using a electric heater. A composting toilet is not available, but a container for woodchips is included, so a composting toilet can be made in the field. Finally, a portable wood gas stove can also be attached if required.
