FOUND Teardrop Template
Posted: Mon Oct 31, 2016 1:46 am Hello everybody, well I have been wanting and planning my first teardrop trailer build for what seems like an eternity. I am fairly decent when it comes to woodworking but the first stages of the teardrop build seem especially daunting. When I say first stages of the build I am referring to cutting out the sides of my trailer. So I opted to seek out a little help by way of plans, but it seemed like every teardrop trailer plan ive bought/obtained so far was absolutely 
, especially the digital plans I have purchased 
. But all I really needed was something reliable and physical that I could actually work on. Well after more searching Im pretty sure I finally found what I was looking for on eBay http://r.ebay.com/fcKwnN. It's a legit 5ft x 10ft tall template on one side, and 4ft x 8ft teardrop template on the other side (so you have a choice of which one you want to make). It's made by a company named Juno Custom Teardrops (JCT). Anyone here used it to make their own teardrop trailer? Was it difficult to do?
I contacted them to ask more about the Template Package and to see if it was in fact what I thought it was, and they confirmed it is life-sized and said that every template comes with a set of instructions that gave you indepth steps, tools needed, the jigsaw/routing/cutting process, how to make sure your sides will perfectly match, even gives measurements for shelves and galley options, etc. I looked at their website and was very impressed with their work so I will for sure be getting their template. The whole thing is only like $50 bucks and it already seems a for sure better bang-for-my-buck than the "plans" i have purchased previously. It is just what I have been looking for. I searched the forum and did not see any mention of this so I had to share my find and ask if anyone else has tried the this JCT Template out and what kind of results it has generated for them.
Feedback would be GREATLY appreciated. - bwilly8917

& no offense taken Dale, thanks for letting me know, ill be more careful from now on.
Man, that sounds like the life! I agree the kufflekreek plans are better than average, he put a lot of work and time into that walk through, so major kudos to him. The pop mechanic plans are excellent also, you are right. I saw a lot of things I liked between the two of them, and I will definitely be using other elements of the plans you recommended in other areas of my build. But in all honesty if they give me that much freedom in the teardrop profile creation it wont matter how great those plans are, I will STILL inevitably mess up those sides beyond saving at least 2x before I get it semi-correct lol. Since making the trailer sides dictates every step after in the build, I have to make sure the process is as straight forward as possible to minimize my unintentional sabotage. When you said:
The Rondack plans sound like they could do the trick as well. I've got to find out how to get a sneak peek of the content before I hit that buy button. I just saw the digital mountain of design associated content on the home page... 
I don't know how I missed that yesterday. Now I HAVE GOT to check it all out. The amount of information on here is incredible, almost intimidating haha. Thanks for the heads up and the great info.
