Perhaps not exactly original but it's what we wanted. My wife has picked up some great Route 66 fabric to make bedding. Thanks for all the input I just need to decide which way to go now :thinking:

Where did you pick those sings up at?

Bought these at a market in Charleston a couple of months back but these are available from a variety of places.

Mine are just cut pieces of Baltic Birch coated with epoxy. If you can cut plywood you can make these doors. Very basic but easy.

I think having your son do some cutting sounds like a great idea. Most schools have good equipment and it get's him involved in the build. Sounds like a win/win idea!

No, but they sell an entire teardrop that comes in a box and you have to assemble yourself. :lol: :lol:
