I like how you're doing your build. It should be lite weight yet strong.

in my old cabin there was no roofwindow
or door window what i could open it means there was no vent what ever, only when you opened the door.
now there will be ventilated (with out fan) roofwindow (with insect stop and blind curtain) and doorwindows (with insect stop and blind curtain) what i can open and vent my cabin.

That is one sweet teardrop! Incredible craftsmanship and design.

[MeelisV]

thanks

i will try to give my best - the second one must be better then first

in some points there is easyer to work with wood and ply. but in some case there is better work with alu.
first tear build was from inside to outside now im doing from outside to inside and must say that fist case was easyer

hope that we will "run" after week or two but finished will be in next winter that means with all accessorys and toys.

next will be after some days.

ps. made my self a fotoalbum on paper and there is history from first build and new build till now and there is ~150 photos allready.
