I've always had this sort of crazy dream to build a mini-brewery or a coffee roaster on a bicycle trailer and then bicycle it around town makin' beer or coffee. Though, actually, as I think about it, I'm not really sure where I would bike it... other than to my pal's houses, and frankly, it's a lot less work to have them come to me.
I like the link to an instructable for building your own paniers. I've seen this instructable before (perhaps it's one of the more popular ones?), and I might try and take this on at some point. Mostly just because I'm drawn to projects like this, and if it can be done for cheap, then all the better!
I already have a BOB trailer, so I can't say that I have any need for another trailer, though "need" has never really gotten in the way of my desire for new bike gear in the past. I've been watching craigslist and curbs on trash day for a cheap kiddie trailer that I can turn into an inexpensive cargo trailer (the start to the brewery?!?), but have not found one yet that fits into this project budget (that budget is about $10 for those that are curious).
Anyway, truth be told, I'd rather just get one of these.
