Find out how much. I've been looking for one. Could you ask about dry weight as well?

6'x10' will weigh in at about 1000-1100 empty. Mine built and loaded should be about 2000lbs. This is with 16 gallons of water. I have 2-16 gallon tanks. one in the front and one in the rear. this way I can control the tongue weight so I can get it where I like it. Headed out to get some paneling today. Going with a light luan for the ceiling and a wainscoting for the walls. I will trim it later but I have to get the roof in before I can do the walls and I need the wall done in order to mount the window.

This is a project I've been thinking about doing for a while now. Just didn't know what I wanted included in it. You've sparked some ideas...thanks!

i have been wanting to build a teardrop for 8 years now. This has freed up sometime. Mine will be simple and light as possible. We just do not need much and spend very little time in campers. I have had Popups, Travel trailers, tents, home built travel trailers..... We just never spend much time in them unless the weather is bad.
Working on my AC soon. i have small 5000 BTU window unit that will run on my 2000 watt generator. I plan to make it portable. Goiing to build a cover for the intake and one for the cold air exhaust. Then all I have to do is lift it out, plug in the ducts and crank it up.

I'll incorporate a false bottom in mine for batteries, somehow. Lol, probably have some solar panels on top as well.
