I must be crazy for even thinking about doing this or am I?
I want a teardrop but don't like the high prices of most of the "production" models out there so I am thinking of building my own.
Couple problems:
1) I live on a sailboat and have no place to build one. However, there is a solution to this. Out here in So. Cal, there are always garages available for rent for around $100/mo. Sometimes cheaper.
2) I don't have a lot of woodworking skills.
3) I don't presently own any tools.
My goals, I think, are pretty basic:
1) Water tight
2) Road worthy
3) Comfortable sleeping for my 6'2" frame. I doubt there would ever be more than just me sleeping inside.
4) Small galley with an ice box or thermoelectric cooler. Don't think I really need a sink or anything fancy.
So, this has me seriously considering buying Kuffel Creek's Cubby plans and renting a garage for a few months.
Those of you with HF trailer-based teardrops, how well do they stand up to the roadways?
Am I crazy?
Thanks
