Newbie in New Mexico

Postby jaimefg17 » Fri Feb 10, 2023 3:12 pm

First time building my own teardrop, but not my first time building. I live in Albuquerque and after camping most of my life in tents, my wife and me decided to build our own camper and enjoy the outdoors more. I'll make sure to add more info about my build in a future post.

That looks pretty cool, unique for certain. Is that large opening a slide out or tip out ?

One side has a 3' x 5' door that swings up with gas springs and the other side has a smaller 30" x 36". the bigger door is going to be used to remove the bed and cleaning, and the smaller door is for daily use as I don't like mosquitos when I sleep.

Interesting build technique & profile. Looks like a bit of thought will go into the compound curves on those corners up front... Going to be a very interesting build!

Welcome to the journey. :thumbsup:

It is so wonderful to see how many ways there are to build a teardrop trailer. I have found the TNTTT group to be a wonderful place to get support and inspiration for my build. Lots of experience and lots of friendly. :D
