Congrats on getting it done, I know that feels good to be able to actually use it now, and frees up a lot of time, some of which you can use camping !.

Beautiful Job! :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Congratulations on your wonderful Teardrop Lauren!!! Just Fantastic! You and your Dad must be very proud! Now get out there and have some fun. Of course, we'll all want to see your pictures.

By the way, have you named her yet?

Warmest Wishes,

Dave

Thank you, everyone! I am so happy that you all have taken the time to view the pictures and leave comments! I have a few more for you as we have completed our hatch props. We used left over 3/4" aluminum angle (bent with a rubber mallet), 1/4" stainless pan head bolts and locknuts, ~1/8" spacers, 2- 48" mill finish aluminum tubing (3/4"OD), sprung steel grip clips, and black foot ends (or whatever they were called). AND, it only cost us ~$22! I think this was the cheapest thing we did on this trailer! I am happy we went this route with the props. They are easy to set up and put away and even one will hold the whole weight of the hatch. :applause: We also got the trim around the top of the cabinets nailed into place for all my plates, etc. and the aluminum trim and edging under the hinge. We also added LED puck lights on each corner of the hatch and the illumination is perfection! We even shut off all the garage lights for the last three pics. Only one exterior amber light was on in addition to the galley lights. The galley is complete! :D :applause:
