Scott B.'s Little Guy Offroad Teardrop Build

[Scott B.]

Here are a couple of additions I did on the kitchen right before the last trip.

First, I added handles (knobs ?) to the drawers. These are red oak which I sourced from Lee Valley.





Next, I add a barrel bolt to the stove to keep it from rotating by itself (not that it ever did.) I also drilled two holes in the mounting shelf - one in the closed position, one in the open position.

Nice contrast on the handles!

Well guys wish me luck, going to my local LG dealer on Sunday to place an order for the ScottB clone

Thanks Scott for answering the barrage of questions

Good luck! Post lots of pictures in your build thread.

We just got back from a 4400 mile, 12 state trip to Wyoming. We slept in the TD a total of 11 nights. Woke up to a layer of ice (on the outside) one morning. All in all, a good trip.

I recently got an RV map of the US, one that shows the states you have visited. Since it is a little too big to mount on the outside (looks out of place), we decided to put it above the kitchen.

Before:

Nice trip, and a nice map! Can you tell me where you got the map?

Do you add a sticker when you camp/sleep there or is passing through sufficient? And as long as I'm being difficult, are there his and hers maps?

Passing through is sufficient - probably should have tighter restrictions, but, hey...

Why would I need his and her maps, when she is always with me in the TD?

She in a TD? Oh yeah, you live in a different world, I forgot.

Here's a picture of one of our camp sites in Wyoming last month.

Last weekend, we attended the first annual Appalachian Rendezvous in North Carolina.

The teardrop was great - one night the temps dipped below freezing, and we were nice and warm.

We made an awning for the TD, and deployed it for the first time. (I will post some close-up pictures at a later date.)



One night's dinner - pizza!

Scott, great to meet you and your better half! The trailer and the wonderfully sewn awning are beautiful!
