    Have a WeeRoll Overland model that I picked up last fall. Probably bigger than most teardrops, but its almost entirely built out of aluminum and weighed in under 1000#

    Hmmm..... I've never seen this thread and I usually spot all things teardrop.

    I'll just leave a few images of our home built. Finished in 2012 and had about 20,000 miles under its wheels.

    I wondered if you were around TW. I followed your build on ExPo and TNTTT. You've made yourself a pretty sweet trailer :) How many nights would you reckon you've got in it? I should probably try and figure out how many miles we've done. We're still sitting at 14 nights. I had plans for another few nights next week but it looks like we might be getting more snow. I'm almost done installing the Propex furnace in mine.

    I actually keep a spreadsheet of where we've been, how many miles, days and nights, temps, and days of rain

    My computer is at home but iirc we've got 104 nights..... with like 30 days of rain......

    You're percentage is better than ours :) We've got 14 nights and 10 days of rain. No idea on the miles but I should be able to figure it out pretty easy.

    I never went to an AR.

    I was at one Overland Expo East a few years ago.

    And I've been to a few teardrop gatherings

    Yey! Another Tiger Moth! We love ours. I think I enjoy working on it more than the truck. Lots of stuff can be done with these things. Check out the camper build in my signature are you on the fb page for these?

    I started reading your build thread last night. good stuff right there. After pg. 8... I started skimming thru till I seen pix. then would read a few posts on both sides of it.

    Rock on with it!

    That said, I've been eyeballing the Woolybear for the last few years. Wifey is a no go on either of them (WB or TM). she want's a big honking thing. but I am slowly changing her mind. haha

    Contact Warren Keeley at Road Trip Camping in Orange, va you can take her there to look at any of them. Great guy and fantastic customer service. Did you get as far in the camper build as where I extended the frame, tongue, and built the box plus the solar system?
