The Ultimate DIY Project: Building a Custom Teardrop Camper

We’ve officially started re-building our teardrop camper! After our last teardrop got hit by a buck, we knew it was a sign that we had to rebuild it better and sturdier than the original. So, we started by doing what anyone would do after their camper got destroyed… destroy it even more. Seriously though, since we were only left with the trailer, we saw the wooden base layer spotted with mold and mildew with soft spots throughout, so we stopped it down to its bare bones. Next, we bought a $40 window off of Facebook marketplace and new tail lights from Walmart. We came up with a plan for the base layer of the camper and Josh designed two options for the camper’s layout: one with a trunk kitchenette, and one with a drawer kitchenette.
