I don't know, the folks in Fort McMurray are pretty proud of their city, too (at least when I was there before it burned down). Good to have some Albertans here, if only to remind people from Minnesota what cold really is.

Welcome to the forum. Prepare yourself, because there is a very active TD designer, builder and head of a fine "on his farm" teardrop gathering, right there in Canada, probably not far from where you live. I wouldn't even be surprised if he jumps onto the band wagon shortly and welcomes you. This guy is full of ideas, has unmatched skills and even likes a glass of wine, now and then. OK Brian, I have greased the skids, now it is your turn. Fire up Miss Piggy and swing by his place, he would be glad to meet you......I think.

Look forward to chatting and talking with everyone. Going to see an abandoned project ( Squaredrop ? as some call it ) to see if it is worth taking on this weekend. If it's good I'll post pics. I have many questions and ideas to add

Oh yes I know of the sawtooth and xl.
It is a freaking awesome build. A lot of what I like. Sadly back to looking for a trailer. I was on my way to get the project and it was sold from under me. Oh well

My build had elements of many other build from sawtooth to moby, pee wee trailers , and a couple of others. An amalgamation of all that I liked from each build. Not just one designer. That is what is great being here so many ideas.

Welcome Fred
Yes, Miss Piggy wasin Alberta briefly last Monday and Tuesday, as we took the long way around to Yakima Wa.
Turned a 320 mile drip down the road into a 1250 journey to get to our destination.
Oh..... Thanks again Rolly for the intro!
Good Luck with your new build.....it is fun to think outside of the box??? :twisted:
