Hello everyone. Working on plans to build a teardrop, owned a 21' Toyhauler for several years and while I loved it, it was simply too much and too big for my typical weekend outings. This website is a wealth of information. I am a welder/fabricator/machinist by trade so building is not new to me having built custom boats, motorcycles, experemental aircraft, etc, just have never built a TT. Needless to say, building the trailer will be my easy part, the woodwork will take more thought and planning

My primary use will be weekend trips to the desert and mountains to ride offroad motorcycles and occational trips just to get away. My rough plans as they stand now is the Grumman 2 profile at 4.5' wide for a full size mattress, wheels exterior of the body on a torsionflex axel, 2x2 tube frame, minimal galley with just room for coolers and storage bins, walls of 1/2" ply, 3/4" foam insulation, 1/8" oak interior and skinned in aluminum. I am located in Santa Clarita near Magic Mountain.
Mike
