Teardrops n Tiny Travel Trailers

Well, The first Lil'Diner is out the door!
Lil'Diner on the right, Stripper on left.

The shop is empty, for now! Want to be next??

I'm building another 'Diner for myself, and will build custom teardrop trailers in wood or traditional aluminum..or ??? I will do truly custom work..you name it...design, appearance, features. I will work one-on-one, one at a time, to create your "dream camper". E-mail or P/M to discuss details.

Steve.... Truly beautiful work! Best wishes to you on all of your future builds and may you continue to be blessed! Dave Speicher

By the way great work nice pictures and maybe soon well meat., Not sure where you are in up state N.Y. but i am in kingston ontario CANADA OK not in just east of wayner

Hey Wayner,

I got you in the hall of fame...

I also noticed that you said you bought it half finished, and that you were looking for directions to complete it. We'd be glad to help... Do you have any specific questions? Or are you just looking for a set of plans.

If you have specific questions, just post them. The guys (and gals) here are very good at answering questions.

If you are looking for plans... well, I'm working on some generic plans that might help you...

Hey Wayner,

Welcome fellow Canuck! Are you going to the Spring TearUP at Fish Creek in June? Steve will be there.

Steve are you bringing the Lil Diner or Stripper? or both!

Mike wayne here OH HI ALL This trailer is posted in my galery but im not sure how to get there LOL LOL I posted two new changes that i made to it #23 and #24 have a funeral tomorrow so probably no work This trailer i acquired looks like a stripper but no doors or no hatch I am just completing the outside before the weather turns nasty Not sure of JUNE i would probably be an outcast You see we have a JAYCO 21 With a 1000 honda generator we are us to camping where we wish algonquine park Gatineau and any point in between not usually campgrounds trout ponds are ok though LOL LOL

Wayne,

The easiest way to get to your album is to click albums, your album. As for the rest of us, it's here... http://tnttt.com/album_ ... ser_id=869

You mentioned it was half done, and you needed help to finish it. Do you have specific questions?

Mike...

OK OK First complaint is this I wish to have the album in assending ord i keep changing it from descending to assending and it keeps changing it back to descending so i give up Last is first and first ios last not sure how to change that. As for the teardrop I have no doors OK so i have one cut oput and one warpted door no lid for the rear and the rear is not complete and no interior also the axle well thats another one no place for a grease seal on the axle he just welded the axle stub on a square piece of steel not sure what to do ther either but something has to be done. Its raing now so that would be a good time for me to measure things up Oh i found a neat set of windows teardrop windows for the trailer door but i will have to change either the design of the doors or shange and build new doors to fit this opening ???????Wayner

Well it turned out not to bad headed for the tent got out the third taillight from the camero and started to make a template sure enough it fits got out the drill and started drilling Fits just and thats all so now its fill time putty and sand putty and sand Ill post two new pictures tonight have a great day AH wayne

Wayne,

The easiest way to control your sort order is to add a number to the beginning of your pic title. Then sort by picture title, in ascending order.

The generic plans I have will have a way to do doors, hatch, etc. But I'll bet you don't want to wait that long. The easiest way to build is to look at photos. My build journal has lots of detail for the doors and also for the hatch. http://www.mikenchell.com/live/index-frame.html

I'd have to see a photo of your stub ends, maybe you just have to pack the bearings before you put the hub on?
