First I want to thank the contributors to this forum, I am a new member but have been gleaning information from this site as I have built my Tiny Teardrop over the last 8 months. I recently completed my "Lil Hobo" ultralight trailer and will be posting a build journal to show the process I used and to "give back," to this wonderful resource. I am a disc golf player and travel to play in tournaments around Texas, I used to tent camp but a 3-day trip last Fall was a cold and wet experience. I am 60 and getting too old to sleep in a tent. I decided to build a small dry place mainly to sleep and carry my gear so my vehicle would be free to go play golf. My Honda Fit does not recommend towing but a little research said it would be OK but the load must be less than 750 lbs. The total gross dry weight of my trailer is 425 lbs., fully loaded with camping gear it is 525. It is an original design, I had a basic idea and just adapted the design as I built. It is possible to build on the fly but it helps to have an overall concept. I am putting together photos and sketches to post a build journal, and thanks again to this site which was a great reference and inspiration. Long-time lurker but now a member.
