Hey all,

As you can see from my signature I'm in the middle of restoring what I used to think was a small trailer.

Have been reading many threads on this site and am finding a lot of the build/design ideas to be very helpful as I prepare to rebuild my "large" trailer.

Am also thinking of building a very small (possibly teardrop shaped) trailer for a cross country trip next summer. Currently we only have a Toyota Echo and Mazda B3000 so using the truck to tow the camper and having my wife follow with the 2 year old seems like a waste for a long trip.

Thinking of a tiny fully enclosed trailer just to carry our tent and supplies with possibly a galley like a traditional teardrop. I want to minimize unpacking and repacking at each stop as well.

Any ideas or suggestions would be welcome. I look forward to reading more of these awesome build ideas.

Thanks,
Not so tiny, but a lot of work: http://mytraveltrailerrestoration.blogspot.com/
