Feels good to be working on it, finally. I hope the extra thought pays off, I've been 'giving it thought' for over 3 years now

It looks like you've been holding back on us with your build pictures. Thanks for posting them. Your teardrop is looking great!

I wasn't holding back, I've just been waiting for you to finish building

Thanks for following, when are we going to see a build from you?

I love the detail you are giving us on your build thread, though it hurt to see that broken board! ...Nice recovery on that! I'm looking forward to seeing more. I hope to see pictures of you camping next summer!

I like to see details too, so I am trying to share what I'd like to see in other build threads.
The damage was due to me getting anxious to finish the task at hand... I surprised myself with the recovery in that I was pretty calm about the tear-out happening and wise enough to walk away for a while.
I hope to see pictures of YOU camping THIS year.... how's your build coming along?

You need to throw a few pictures of your boat in your album.

I started one but I havent updated it in quite a while as I havent gotten much accomplished. Home reno's kind of took over this summer.

Sorry to hear about the Edmonton thing If you're ever down here in Cowtown we should compare notes. Having someone else building a Teardrop so close motivates me to get back to work on mine! Thanks!

Burke,

Thanks.

Love your album. Love your ultimate teardrop for one! It's the first 2-wide TD I've seen.

Nice Coffin!

That coffin trailer is not mine, it's a bit too creepy for my taste, I found that in a Kijiji ad.

I wouldn't sleep in it. I mean some pirate at a teardrop gathering might sit on it having his morning coffee and you couldn't get out.

I've heard more than a couple of people complain about their 4 ft. wide teardrops feeling like being in a coffin. They talk about getting 5-wides or standies. I had a 6-wide and got a standie.

Transformer fantasy: Coffin trailer pops up, folds open, and canvas sides roll down to the floor. Galley optional.

I wouldnt mind one that was more 4-5ft wide by 8ft long but same shape lol. I think my parents might not let me keep that 1 in their driveway lol.

Pirate,

Nice motor-sailer. What's it getting? Stripped and bottom paint? New mast?
