Teardrops n Tiny Travel Trailers

I've been trying to work within, 1. my budget, 2. the few materials I collected from the parsonage demolition.

I'm about as handy with a hammer as a whale is with ballet slippers.

Nevertheless, I've been measuring chairs, tables things in the house and trying to get a sense of absolute minimum scale to have a standable type tear.
After creating a scale/grid on my mac put together bike boxes to draw the outline of the tear I created on the mac.

It seems almost a match to my computer drawing and looks like my scaling is about right. I've a few questions to research, but I feel I've taken a real potential step.

...sharing this with you, reinforces my efforts and resolve. ...maybe this really might happen.

ps.. the tear, if it was a box looks to be (interior) 7x7 by 5 foot wide.

Go for it!

But, don't be shy about calling in some help if you don't know tools and there proper use.

You use a Mac, which proves you are smart. So, I look forward to seeing where this goes.

Start a thread in the "Build Journal" forum, so we can watch and help.

You can lower the overall height by putting in a drop floor – that way it won’t be so tall when you try and park it (garage-able – if done carefully and if that’s important to you) or tow it down the road (better gas mileage).

Yep... I will start posting in the Build Journal as I can get to it. Thanks for the encouragement. (Today I plan to read more of the postings and improve on what I thought I knew... a drop floor...?)
