First of all great forum. :applause: That said I was wondering :thinking: if anyone could help with that classic Teardrop profile (Benroy). If there is a formula for this I would sure appreciate it.

Welcome wsteely, If you try angib(in the members list) he has plans listed for just about every TD or TTT. Also try a search under benroy. All the info you will ever need is right here in this forum. It has been invaluable to me.
Cheers

ws,

I have done a pdf of the generic benroy profile - send me your email address and I'll send it to you (it's not yet on my web site).

Be quick as I'm going away soon.

WS, You'll find several drawing like this one on the link Steve has posted.

Be sure to look at all of them. Mike did a good job drawing them up.

WSteely,
Welcome to the board... The Benroy is a great choice.... I on the other hand am building the "Benorrhoid" A free hand, no plans, conglomeration of ideas gleaned from the Hall of Fame pictures and the postings on the board. When finished (very soon) I'll ask Mike to include my build pictures and maybe they will change the name in my honor to the Hall of Shame. Next one will be a traditional design however. Good Luck W now that the Tear Drop bug has bit ya!

Thanks for all the replies. I am a big fan of this forum , and find it a great tool for anyone interested in teardrops.
Thanks again, and I will have more questions as I embark on this journey of a build.
