Newb from Nevada!

Postby Themontashu » Sun Nov 07, 2021 8:36 pm

For one reason or another I’ve decided I want a teardrop (storage and mobility). Started with looking at regular trailers and realizing they are trash and might be to big, ending in me not wanting to pay big trailer prices for a teardrop, but understanding why. I’m also dumb enough to want some unique features.

Little about me, my pops is a wood-shop teacher, and I’ve currently got a garage full of equipment that I know how to use safely and reasonably successfully. I’m also a mechanical engineer by trade and have actually done some small trailer testing off road for work. Because of this, I’m expecting to spend 10 times as long designing this thing, obsessing about silly details, and basically taking twice as long for no appreciable results!

I’m excited to start my build
