Yes; the Teardrop is a homebuilt; started by lurking on the TinyTears web forum to get ideas bought a set of Kuffel Creek plans and some from Mike on the sight ....made a drawing of what I wanted and went to work. This years improvements will be a torsion axle(highly recomended) some early style fenders and tire/wheel combo to match the T-Bucket I will build. On the Tears forum I am just 'gassman' there are some build pics listed. Rick and Tracy's vinyl roofed TearDrop. Like tis forum the members are very helpful; especially to the newcomer. If you want to build one and need help....feel free to ask for it !!!

I have the plans from Steve in PDF can i get a set of yours?It looks like its more my size.Lee_in_KC said:I have plans for a smaller teardrop primarily to haul stuff, but it will be long enough for me to sleep in if the need arises. I actually have had the frame and axle sitting in the shop for three years waiting for me to build the dang trailer, but I've spent all my time working on and driving the T. Here is a rendering Humidi-T did of a line drawing I posted on the other board about threee years ago...
Here is my three-view...
I have detailed plans done on AutoCAD if anyone is interested.

If you taller guys are thinking teardrop camper i would look into making one 9 to 10 ft long, Im 5'9" and its nip and tuck without much room to stretch. Its a good thing the wife and I are spooners :lol: If I could change anything on mine it would be a bit longer.. build it to fit the matress you want to sleep on...

The Campster 12
Those plans have been in speedway for a few years, as with anyones directions, your mileage may vary..Im really thinking about building another one for a little more room (12 ft campster by Grant Whipp) but I will keep my 5 foot wide for hotrodding. These things are almost as addicting as t buckets...
Have fun!!!! paul

I've been getting their catalogs for years and I have never noticed them listed. I guess I'll see if I have any old catalogs laying around and look for them.

I found them in my 2008 catalog. They are in a part I usually don't look at so that's why I missed them. I take it they aren't very good plans.
