        Ok today once again I was on the lazy side so I did very little to the teardrop.

        First I started to put in a little space above the headrest something where I could put the cell phone, key's, ect


        and with that I would basiclly finish the inside all thats left is to carpet the wall's, celing and floor also install the trimming and cabinet doors.

        then I started working on roughly designing the kitchen I say roughly cause I don't know what I'm going to put in it like cabinet's, micowave, stove or even a sink, but I should know by tommorow. here are some pictures









        allready done with electricity plug too


        like I said I should have a better idea tommorow on the design of the kitchen.

          After I finish 3 fiberglass deerstands, 1 ladderstand and one tripod stand, and 1 duckhunter boat, I am gonna give this a try. How much do you think its going to weight? 500 pounds complete? I was thinking about making a buck(plug) to make a fiberlass mold. Then I could make multi units. Missed a mold on ebay for 500.

          Your progress is getting me motivated to finish all of mine. So get back to work already.

            Yea I also saw th mold on ebay to bad the guy wanted $4500 for it. I think the whole thing should weight about 400 to 500 lbs with a tounge weight of about 65 lbs.

                  Can't vouch for the fiberglass part. I am a carpenter and you have skills. Keep up the great work!

                        Very nice. I hope you post a hour count and total price to build at the end. The carpet on the walls will add a little insulation.
