I like the shots of Cliff's. I am hoping for a similar look, except I'll be doing the top all the way over the front, and I hope my trim wood turns out as...
Sweet... Can't wait for the pics.. Compile a list of the suppliers you purchased materials from as well. I think it would be interesting to know who sells what...
I put some pics in the photos section under Duane's Teardrop Build. Nothing exciting yet, just the frame. It's just a boat trailer frame. More to come. Duane ...

Looks great so far.. What type of fenders did you opt for?...
Just got back from the valley - I got the fenders and they look great! they are very good construction. I ordered them through the Teardrop Fix-it Shop...
Hi ALl, I am fairly new to this idea of teardrops and I have got the bug. I haven't started building yet, still working on ideas and materials. I have placed a...
Thanks for all the info. I am about as much a new-be on TD's as anyone. I am wanting to make a real small one for pulling behind my Goldwing motorcycle. I have...
I'm making a SMALL one to pull behind my trail/X-country bike. I am going to make it with insulated sides so I can use it as a cooler. Because it does not...
Got all the dado cuts made on the pieces, and assembled the basic shell. I have to let the glue dry before I can move it, but I added a picture of one side to...
Greetings from the land of rice and mosquitos! I finally got the floor bolted on the frame last night. The possum belly really slowed me down. I got the door...

Dang Leon.. You're just flying through the project.. Slappin' this thing together in no time.. Love the burners, sink and microwave.. This thing is going to...
Hi Leon, Thanks so much for your reply. You've helped me greatly already. ... I'd love to do a bit of this myself, but I'm feeling the need to speed up the...
Leon, not to sound dumb, but do we need special tires for '46 teardrops and what is a NSRA show and how again do I get to your site, Gotta see this trailer...
