Teardrop Trailer

So after last years less-than-comfortable couple of weeks in Hueco, we decided to go to Bishop this year in style! We got these really simple plans off the internet to build one...here's what we've done so far....

Here's Kris installing some conduit for the wiring to the lights to go through...


Here's the bed platform, upside-down, getting it's rubber bed liner. We're building it 5ft wide on a 4ft wide trailer, so we had to build a 4ft wide box to raise up our floor over the fenders. The inside of the box is insulated and sealed...



Next we put the bed on the trailer and bolted it down...




Then we cut out the side walls and attached them too, also using water sealer! We're not getting wet in this baby, no matter what my dad says...When Kris and I build stuff, it seems to get well over built...



Then the other side...



Then we started doing some work on the back wall and shelf/dog bed, but we ran out of plywood...building in 5ft widths tends to waste a bit of 4ft wide plywood. They need to make plywood in 5ft widths so that this project would go easier...



That's it so far...we're gonna be the coolest and comfiest kids in Bishop!
