Beautiful - Just a Cute Standie... :applause: :applause: :applause: :applause:

Eric instead of the shower there could you install a Sauna instead? Id prefer that much better.

Whats the price of that ?

If I had a nice shop I would live in it. :thinking: Metal, motor stuff in one area. Wood in another and living quarters in one corner

Eric,

Nice looking trailer.

Where does the shower water go if the shower pan is a portion of the dropped floor pan? Do you have a gray water tank or does it go directly to the ground? If there is a tank, do you have a sump type pump to bring it uphill? I'll be working on a cargo conversion and will have a similar problem if I lower the floor in the area of the shower. Right now I'm planning a sit down on the porta-potti type shower. I am curious how you've handled this.

Also, I see that you have what I would describe as a "quilted" panel in the galley area. Is there a proper name for this material, is it purchased this way or is there a technique used to make it. This material gives a really nice flair to the inside of the trailer when used in moderation as you have.

I stopped by the Trailer Works on Sep 26th and saw the "Standie" up close and personal; it is every bit as beautiful in person as the pictures show.

The Trailer Works also have some GREAT Teardrops that are currently under constuction or you can order what you want. IF your in the market for a constructed Teardrop this has to be one of the companies on your buy list!

I have no financial interest in this recommendation and place them on a par with the Tear that I am currently towing around the USA, a Lassenview Teardrop.
Both of these builders provide a quality product! :applause:
