Ok, I don't really have a name for it, but the Grillenium Falcon will do for now. I got the go-ahead from the boss to start on the teardrop build in 2013, and she said that she'd even like to help. I've been lurking, researching, and drooling over everyone's build journals for months, and it's time for me to start my journey. I even spent a few hours tonight teaching myself Google SketchUp, and came up with my first mock up. I plan on building a woodie, as I'm a huge fan of old school wooden boats, so there may be some nautical themes included in the build. I will be finalizing the trailer design in the next few weeks, and have a local builder lined up. I hope to also have the template cut with a CNC machine to help jump start the project.
This will be my build journal, and I plan on taking lots of pictures. I already have a couple of dozen links bookmarked, and parts ready to order. Wish me luck!
EDIT: The teardrop now officially has a name: The Teardrop Explorer. The Grillenium Falcon was only a placeholder until I actually had my vanity plate I wanted in hand.
