Howdy to all:
Just saying Hello from NC. Don't have a teardrop yet but in the planning stages. Thinking about a 5X8 or 5X10 (larger galley) and so it will fit a Queen size matt. Looking forward to learning a lot before building one and I plan on attending a few meets or shows.

Materials: Any suggestions on plywood sizes? Would it be possible or necessary to find 5x10 sheets or just use 4x8 sideways and glue together for the flooring and sides. I would like to make a storage unit under the trailer just under the mattress/sleeping area if that figures in for any configurations.
Also, when sandwiching the plywood with foam for the floor and painting, sealing or under coating the bottom. Has anyone ever used outdoor or marine grade plywood for the under side or do folks use that and don't mention it????
Sorry, lot of newbie questions before I get started and have been reading a lot.
Thanks in advance :applause:
