I live in Florida. I got the idea to build a teardrop trailer when I saw one for the first time at the amazing campsites at Topsail Hill State Preserve in the Florida panhandle.
I am gathering information to build my first teardrop. I need to make it as cheap as possible, so I am thinking it will be pretty basic. I am hoping to spend less than 1000 dollars. Can it be done?
I purchased some plans (I'm kicking myself now, though, for spending that money when there are so many free plans). Anyway, here is what I was thinking of making for my first one.
It has a soft top that snaps loose to make it a convertible, with a screen on the top. It uses a harbor freight trailer.
I think my ideal trailer, however, would be some kind of nicer Woody with some different kinds of paneling, air conditioning (or at least a fan) and a nice galley kitchen. However I think I'm going to start out relatively simple and will work my way up possibly from there, when I have more money and experience.
I am trying to figure out how to run a battery for this thing as I think I'd like to run lights and a fan from it (or possibly an RV refrigerator.) If anyone could help me out with that or direct me on where to look I would appreciate it.
