...in that case, I would go with either a standy like the Puffin or an oversize tear like Rob's CabinCar or even the Widget from the Design Library in the top index...all would work out well for extended stays...............

:applause: Welcome Droid,
Have you finalized a design yet. I know that you have spent a great many hours on this fantastic site. There is so much to learn and enjoy.
Hope to see some pictures soon.

No not yet been thinking about possibly a vardo or maybe a cabin car .But like everyone else moneys kind tight especially this time of year but I'm still thinking about it and trying to absorb as many ideas as I can the hard part for me is on where do I put a bird cage for my african grey parrot we have a traveling cage but it would be nicer to have somewhat more room we have tented it before just the two of us but as most on here say Tents Suck so thats kind of where I'm at for now 8) :? :D

Good to hear from you.
One of the 2x2 privy tents may work for you as they can be attached to a tear drop on the second door. If you need a/c then that small tent may be just the thing so that you can build to tear drop the way you want it. Look around and you will see lots of what I am talking about and they are not expensive. that is my intent for a changing room.

Look forward to seeing some sawdust.
Merry Christmas.

droid, I gotta say whatever you decide to build will probably be just right for what you plan to use it for because only you know what your needs are and the particular size and width is a mater of choice that only you can decide because each of us has individual interests and needs and never should be a consideration for the shape and size of the intended teardrop trailer build no matter what your intentions are in the future so my recomendation is to proceed with whatever turns you on and and fits your needs dispite whatever feedback you recieve from this here forum which may or may not make you change your mind anyway I hope I have made myself clear in this regard BTW my personal choice is 4x8 and 4 ft high and a woody of course.
