I came across a teardrop picture online a few months ago and have been obsessed since. I work 50-60 hours a week in the Hotel Industry...so not a lot of time to build one, but gonna try anyway. I found a 4x8 trailer for $125 and I am going to start adding what I can find bit by bit. Don't have a ton of money to throw at this project so I am hitting craigslist, ebay, garage sales, and the like. I refinish furniture in my spare time, am writing a scifi novel, paint, draw, carve, build lightboxes, and tinker with interior design. I lean towards retro and modern, so I want a woody sided TD with green aluminum top (to match my subaru) and some plastic, glass, and interesting paint touches inside. I hope it comes out as cool as it is in my head. Thank you all for your help and inspiration thus far and in the future. You are all awesome!

Hello and welcome to the forum,

Wow, it looks like you have a pretty full plate. Just keep plugging away and before you know it your trailer will be done.

Thanks Matt. My plate is more than full, but I hope to have my trailer done by next summer, ready for my family reunion and some planned camping trips. Cliff, I amaze myself regularly. :)
