Get away from it all in a style and comfort you designed and built yourself . . . Matt Berger's book The Handmade Teardrop Trailer: Design and Build a Tiny Classic Camper hands you the keys to craft your own great adventure. The Handmade Teardrop Trailer guides you through the journey from sketchbook to first road trip, and will prepare you to design and build your own stylish and comfortable pull-behind Tiny Trailer. And, to achieve this you don't need much space, just a garage bay or shared workspace, and the most basic tools and materials available at your nearby hardware store or home center. Because we all have our own road-trip fantasies when it comes to comfort, style, and purpose, The Handmade Teardrop Trailer will train you up like a pro on the basics of trailer design, backed up by deep research and experimentation. Illustrations provide measurements and construction details that are easy to adapt for variations in size and configuration and more than 100 step-by-step photos illuminate every detail in the design and build process. With this handy guide leading the way, you'll be shutting down the computer, storing the cellphone, and hitting the road to find some peace in a classic trailer camper you built by yourself. AUTHOR: Matt Berger is a designer and builder of everyday objects, and the author of The Handmade Skateboard (Spring House Press, 2014). A lifelong hobby enthusiast and workshop adventurer, Matt makes a living creating digital products, and makes a passion out of building physical products in his garage workshop and local maker spaces. Matt earned his stripes in the woodshop as an editor at Fine Woodworking magazine, where he launched FineWoodworking.com, and produced and starred in how-to videos for the website. Matt applied all the skills learned and practiced at the Fine Woodworking shop to create a series of workshops teaching students of all ages how to build a handmade skateboard. That turned into his first book and the DIY brand SK8Makers. With his second book, The Handmade Teardrop Trailer, Matt is expanding his DIY ambitions to a much bigger project: a Tiny Teardrop Trailer. SELLING POINTS: Hundreds of photos and illustrations guide you through every step in the design/build process. Trusted research compiled into a single, comprehensive resource that's easy to follow or adjust to your custom dimensions. Empowers you with the confidence and know-how to tackle a trailer build in your garage, with basic tools and materials available at your local hardware store or home center. A fun, beautifully illustrated book that will keep you reading into the night, as your imagination wanders toward your personal trailer-build adventure!
