Mike I will take a picture of it here in a little while and post it sometime a little later today. We put the camo inside because we saw it in a tear here a few months back and it really looked good. When you are sleeping in the tear, it feels like you are sleeping all cozy in the woods, no matter what is happening outside. LOL We plan to make our ceiling and front wall like a strip canoe look. Something like this model canoe I built a while back.

I have a scaled sketch that I drew and will be glad to post it if you want.
I started out with nothing and I still got plenty left.

Sure, the scaled sketch will work. It's nice that you have the pictures all figured out! 8)

Mike...
The quality is remembered long after the price is forgotten, so build your teardrop with the best materials...
