I'm Sara Newman, a mechanical engineer from Louisville, KY. I've always dreamed about designing small spaces. I love to organize and re-organize and create new ways to optimize space. I think this is the perfect project to get into for me. My husband and I love camping, though we've never had a trailer. I plan on starting from a new trailer (HF or NT) but trying to do things like doors and windows myself to save on cost. I'm most excited about the galley design as it has a great deal of potential for creative uses of space. This project will certainly improve my shop skills (I have some experience from work at GE Appliances, but not much with woodwork) and I totally plan on buying that awesome manual! I want to keep the price low but not dirt cheap. We want this to last many years and be exactly what we want. My husband (by school a mechanical engineer, by trade an accountant/business consultant) is very supportive of this endeavor and keeps encouraging me to think outside the typical designs box. I would love to be a part of this community and plan to document my build of course! Any and all input is VERY much appreciated!
