New guy from Mi.

Postby sgt.tom » Sat Jan 26, 2008 3:56 pm

Hello.

My name is tom and I am from the Owosso/ Chesaning Michigan area. I'm new to all this, but I like the teardrop trailers and am planning on building one. I'm in no hurry and plan on taking my time. I have basic building skills. My wife is on board with me (90% of the battle). I enjoy all outdoor activities and have a big goofy airedale terrier to help.

Right now I'm just going to read the posts and try and learn as much as I can. Later, I'm sure I'll have plenty of dumb questions.

The quality is remembered long after the price is forgotten, so build your teardrop with the best materials...

Thanks for the welcome. I guess my first step is getting a good set of plans. What does everyone suggest? The ones from kuffel creek? :thinking:

Hi Sgt_Tom,


Welcome to the forum. Do like Boodro said, there are also free plans under "Generic Benroy Plans" at the top. For ideas, check out "The Hall of Fame" at the top left of each page. This will let you see what others have done. Get in and ask questions and most of all have fun.

See you around. :thumbsup:
