Due to interest from visitors to this site, and supporters, I have
produced two resources for the home-builder. The Builders ShopManual
covers the construction of a wooden Teardrop Trailer in great detail.
The 'Rondack Lodge Plans CD covers the construction of The 'Rondack Lodge.
The manual is
in PDF format, on a CD-rom.
There are over 200 pages with many photos and diagrams of my "Inside-Out" Method I have develpoed.
There are three profiles, Drawn by Andrew Gibbens, of Classic designs.
With this manual and basic skills, you will be able to build your own
Wooden Teartrop Trailer, from plans, or a sketch on a napkin!
Here are some comments from satisfied customers..
"Just wanted to let
you know I received the CD today. I have already previewed
and wanted to compliment you on a job well done."

"Awesome! From the non woodworker, I can say this is a great
tool and will be a great resource when I build the new tear.
Thanks for your hard work."

"I have been enjoying the CD. It is really well
written. I have basically read the 1st couple of sections,
and skimmed the rest. I look forward to reading the rest....
I could use your technique to make it two different types of
wood rather than a painted aluminum exterior. Maybe a dark
cherry or walnut and birch sides. Thanks for the inspiration
and the CD. "

"Your disk shipped on Monday 2 Oct and I
received it here in the St Louis
metro area on Saturday 7 October.
I did not take my after church Sunday nap on the 8th, spent most of the
day with your CD. I really enjoy your perspective. You sure do use a
router do you not! Charles A

"Steve!!!!!!!!! Got the cd today! Great work. I've got a project going
right now that I need to get out of the way before I get started on a
TD.But after seeing your cd I don't know if that may happen. I'm ready
to start NOW! Thanks and God bless. Kim & Carol A..."
The Plan Package is in PDF form, on CD.
There are over 60 pages of drawings and building notes.
A slide show showing the construction of the prototype is also included.
Since the build of the 'Rondack is based upon my methods shown in my ShopManual, I recommend that you purchase the Manual if you don't already have it. You can, of course, build the 'Rondack with just the plans and your imagination.
The
cost of the Teardrop Builder's manual is $59.95, and is shipped postage
paid.
The cost of the 'Rondack plans CD is $49.95, shipped postage paid.
You can purchase a combination CD with the ShopManual and 'Rondack
Plans for $99.95, also postage paid.You can use the convenient
