Teardrops n Tiny Travel Trailers

OK, we’d like to see pics of those too … around here we all love the

You asked for it...

The Jeep



The truck. Of course it is far from done too so you get a rendering.



The RC Jeep



My son's RC Crawler... The Rock Rod

I had an idea......

This would satisfy the "Thrifty" as well as the light weight theme we have going on here. I have a plastic folding table with a sink built into it that I use for my BBQ business and competitions. It could easily be converted to be hard mounted into a gally or simply be used as designed. Not bad for $60 - 70 and 20 lbs with the folding metal base.

Looks good, great price, already made, and re-use is a plus.

I have been looking at those too. There are a couple different styles out there to consider.

Well, I made through the Foamie Novel. I am going to make a hybrid Foamie Squaredrop with under cabin storage. The platform 2x4 is a 40 by 48 trailer lengthened to 8'. The trailer I may shoot my self in the foot but it is bought. My TV is 89 s-10 blazer rated at 5,000 tow capacity so weight really isn't a problem.

All right !!! No worries about the weight … Good luck , If you need a consultation or assistance , please ask …

Good job. Make sure you start your own build thread so we can follow along.

OK GL....Congrats, but did you REALLY read the ALL the big thread, or just skim & pick out the juicy parts? You can fess up, we're all (well mostly) adults here. Good trip dude, we're all in this together...........jd

It took me a couple of months but, yes I did read it all. Now I have the basic idea and just need to find e tune and ask some guestrooms as they come up

Merry Christmas and a Happy New year to everyone.

One thing to be said … we’ve got plenty of insulation !!!

We bought a tear drop camper in October that was built by someone else. I have been thinking about adding a canvas titebond roof to it. Does anyone have experience with doing this as a retrofit? And am wondering how to handle this with the galley hatch area which does not have a great seal on our camper.

Not sure how your hinge is designed, but this might give you a idea. Basically a living hinge placed over a piano type hinge.

D&S, are you doing it to protect the roof ?? If your roof is plywood , that’s a GOOD idea ...
