Hello from Robin Hood country!

[Shaneknotshaun]

Hello from over the pond in Nottingham, England, been looking at doing a teardrop for a while now and finally got a trailer sorted and it's coming soon! Got a different idea to make a expending teardrop to fit two adults and the three kids and connect to my Vw van! So may need some help and advice, doing a scale model so I'll post some pics up soon!
Cheers Shane.

Started doing a scale model done the top/lid teardrop and going to do bottom one soon!

Hoping to do the sides in 8x4 sheet but do a angled front to gain another foot will do some more pics soon!

Have you hooked up with Rian Kemp (Grizz). I think he's a bit East of London.

Cheers,
