The Teardrop Chronicles: The Build

10 months ago my wife brought home a box from Harbor Freight Tools. Inside was a kit to build a 4 x 8 collapsible trailer frame. She shared this grand idea of building our own teardrop trailer, to take on a cross country road trip we have always talked about. With her research and a little of my own we altered the collapsible frame design into a rigid base. Then built a wooden floor base. Within a few weeks of occasional weekend work we insulated and waterproofed the base, but then we abandoned the project for the winter.
