Teardrop Sites

If you are looking into building a teardrop, I highly recommend lurking around a teardrop forum and checking out many of the beautiful trailers that others have built. Even if you decide to purchase a ready made trailer from one of the many vendors, these forums are filled with ideas and techniques to help make your trailer your own. I have found the members of these forums to be extremely helpful and more than willing to help a new 'teardropper' out.

I also recommend watching the forums for dates and locations of teardrop gatherings that may be going on in your area. Most teardrop owners seem to be used to people asking them questions about their tears and there is no better way to get ideas and resolve problems than checking out another teardrop up close and in person.

This is a list of sites that I have been using for help, inspiration and planning.
