Will, at least one that will fit on my welding table LOL  I build pull wagons for fun and have built a teardrop trailer for my Toyota Tacoma pull wagon, so I thought it would be fun to build a R Pod to pull around when camping with my R pod. 

So far I have the frame and fenders done on the R Pod. It is 21" x 32"

Yeah based on the shiny little tear-drop with the cute little propane bottles (what the heck are those anyway?)....I'm ready to buy the quarter-scale r-pod sight unseen!

It needs an open top and a couple of windows so my little dog can be all comfy inside as I pull it behind my motorcycle!

Whoo hooo!

The propane bottles are the handle to open it.

I got the axle all welded up. The funny thing is when I welded it it pulled and had negative camber, I almost left it to be funny.

I also started on the body, still need the side it.
