Teardrops n Tiny Travel Trailers

I really love the look of tinted flush mount windows, and plan to do this, one way or the other, but it would sure help, if anyone has any ideas or has done this, or made custom windows?

thanks in advance

Reminds me of a fort we built as kids, we hot glued a piece of plastic over a hole to make a window. You could cut out your hole about 1/2'' smaller than your window, rout out a little step 1/4'' wide and the depth to match your plexiglass thickness, and epoxy smoked plexiglass windows in. You could repeat on the inside and have a double pane window.

...errrrr, how flush do you want it...how thick are your walls...more/better info is needed to answer your questions.........

my walls are 2 inches thick,
I like the look of the window in the pic above, that would work,

i may go with these if they are not crazy expensive, I have no idea how high priced they might be???

here is what I am doing,

1st, I know this camper really does not fall into the catagory of what most here build, however I have found a ton of good info here, with custom ideas and styles, as I am redoing this camper with a more modern design, rather than going back to all vintage stuff.

I am wanting to go from this





to this (photoshoped)

Hmm, a fresh 6er of Becks... Oh I'm sorry, this was saposed to be about windows.

You are in luck, a standard RV wall is 1 7/8" thick, so a standard RV window will fit ok, just a little gap between trim ring and window, but you probably won't even notice. A lot of the bigger RV places have used windows for sale. How many do you need? I have one I got for the front, but can't use it because my tongue box will block it. PM me If your interested.

I got my windows from this guy: http://myworld.ebay.com/bottomdollarsurplusinc/

He has some pretty cheap windows, just no trim ring so you'll have to get creative. The one I've received so far is in like new condition.

I'll second that, bought two windows and they were nice...but no trim rings. Very quick delivery. Sound eBayer.

I'll pitch in and say that I've gotten quite a few things from bottom dollar surplus. The window I got didn't have a trim ring but it is a front window that came with a rock guard perfect for a sun roof.

Thanks guys, I am trying to find slanted or tilted side windows like I photoshopped into the above pic.

What pic???

Do you need the windows to open?

You mean like custom van windows from the 70's?

no they dont need to open,

I'm looking for windows like this, that are slanted or angled or what ever you want to call it.

I've found a company that makes them but they make each one to your specific sizes and shapes needed, probably high dollar.

Austin hardware sells rubber window gaskets in varrying wall thicknesses. Just cut out plexiglass windows the shape you want, cut out the hole, put in the gasket, put in the plexiglas, done. A lot cheeper than a custom built window. I saw a thread on it a few years back, might try searching for it.

sweet, that is what I'm looking for although I will probably use real glass, I got a friend in the business, so I can get a deal on getting the windows cut.
