Teardrop Trailer

Teardrop trailer hitched up for the first time.

I Built it Myself

Several years ago I embarked on a challenging adventure, building a teardrop camping trailer from scratch. It was not built from a kit, but rather reverse-engineered from a commercially made version.

I bought as many components as possible from big-box home centers and hardware stores, seeking to build something great out of commodity-grade parts. Ultimately, however, many parts came from more specialty vendors, including trailer supply companies, lumber yards, and marine suppliers.
