RTT spec help

[Tkdx00]

I've started the search for an RTT that will be able to handle a larger than average sized person. I stand 6'5" and weigh over 300 lbs. In life most things are not created with the LARGER person in mind, NOT knowing a thing about RTT designs, ie flooring and supports, where do I start? Or am I destined to create something from scratch? Whatever I do come up with will be set atop a trailer. Thanks for the help.

By the way, I've just about read all the trailer builds here and finally have come up with a design I think will work...Thanks to all those that have come before.

I wish I could find the picture Jess the owner of Eezi Awn tents sent me when I asked him what the weight capacity of one of his tents was. He sent me back a picture of about eight of his employees crammed into the tent.

Your issues are going to be setting up the ladder correctly to support your weight and the weight of the cantilevered portion of the tent, anchoring the ladder so it doesn't slip out from under the tent, and getting in and out of the tent comfortably.

All the Series 3 Eezi Awn tents are 8 ft long so your height won't be an issue.

Thanks, I will start there.
