Hi, From Indiana

Hi from Indiana!

I stumbled upon this site while looking for information on building a tiny camper. I have found a lot of useful information and inspiration.

I am just starting my tiny camper / teardrop build. I will try to post pictures of the journey in a separate build journal post. I'm sure I will ask a lot of questions as well. Just as a teaser I will say that my build started life as a 1973 coleman popup bought from my Aunt for $200.

I have no formal mechanical/building training but I am somewhat of a shade tree mechanic and have tackled some moderate home improvement projects so I feel like I am up for the challenge.

My wife and I enjoy camping, traveling, and hiking. Last year we made a trip through colorado, utah, idaho, montana / yellowstone, and back, all while sleeping/camping in the back of our honda pilot on a futon mattress. Needless to say, the tiny camper will be a huge improvement.

Welcome fellow Hoosier! Enjoy the many threads on building and ask lots of questions if you wish. A lot of builders here with a lot of ideas. We also have a very active group of folks here in Indiana that camp together 3 times a year. First outing this year is in May, 18-20, at Raccoon Lake State recreation area near Rockville. Come out and visit even if you don't have your camper finished. You will see lots of ideas in person.
