My first teardrop before I sold it

I started building a teardrop about 10 years ago but had to sell it before it was finished due to financial issues. I'm close to being ready to start again. I'm gathering ideas now and starting the planning process! It's so exciting starting a new project!

BTW, there aren't any other Texans on this board whatsoever. 8)
Holy cow, Rose is a teenager now! Done? Surely you jest. A teardrop is never "done".

I know there are. Seems half the folks on the forum are Texans. God Bless us all.

I'm a bit late to the game, but welcome from another San Antonio resident! I had to put my own plans on hold this last year due to lack of funds, but I'm about to start buying parts/supplies next month and hopefully start construction in May. Good luck to you on your build!

I'm from Sutherland Springs, Texas. Well, almost, it's a Stockdale address, but we live two miles from Sutherland Springs and five miles from Stockdale. I just joined the forum. I have been looking at teardrops for about three days now, but I already want to build one. I have a shop and equipment, but not metalworking, welding, etc. Mine has to be a Woody.
