The Nest'r needed a new home. [ ~SOLD~ ]
Posted: Sat Jan 06, 2018 12:01 pmSOLD- thanks TNTT!
After using the Nest'r for few years now, we have done what a lot of others do as we age; we've purchased a 'larger' travel trailer. We don't want the Nest'r to become neglected, but we also do not need two campers.
No need to make your own ‘standy’; buy this one!

Important Features …
Titled , taxed and tagged! YES. So many folks in Tennessee don't bother because it is not required and you have to PAY the property tax in order to tag it the first time. DONE… And it is current.
She's ready to roll anywhere with a 1-7/8" ball. The original Harbor Freight frame came with a 2”.
According to calculations; completely empty, it weighs only 750lbs. The original frame kit was rated at 1740lbs (2000 gross) so there’s plenty of reserve ‘capacity’ if you ever need it.
Construction is from 1/8” thick luan ply inside and out on 1x2 pine framing. The frame has been biscuitted and glued with Titebond III at all joints; some critical joints have been pre-drilled and screwed.
This makes it extremely lightweight and very strong. It also allows for easy repair or update.
In the spirit of full disclosure I should mention that there are some soft spots developing in the front-rolled-pan area (not structural) and that there may be a split (check) or two in the luan that the epoxy didn’t stop. These would be minor fixes for any Teardropper to repair. I have been repairing minor spots as they occur on an as-needed basis already. You just have to “keep after it”, much like owning a wooden boat. Who knows? Maybe she’s a candidate for PMF or Aluminum; it’s up to you.
