Here's a twin tube version

I thought the twin tube ones were bigger, but this looks the same size if not smaller. Possibly it's that the seat is actually an adults one

Will do some reshaping to the rimu drawbar once the glue sets, and make some kind of hook set up. I have an eye bolt mounted to the back of the trike. 

Also painted the tray, will probably rivet it on using the original brackets. Painted the white part just before it ruined heavily, so it's not very nice. Oops. Might line it with some wood or something nice rather than paint again
