It has been eons it seems since a Project Teardrop update.

I had saved nearly every scrap of wood from the build. I had also ordered an extra set of "left" hinges for this. A surplus air conditioner found it's way into the garage too.

Say Monty, I think I'd like Door Number 2.

Wedged into place.

Hanging on the hinges. I used what are called torpedo hinges. When the door is opened 90 degress, it will lift clear of the fixed portion of the hinge allowing easy swapping of the doors.

Cool, refreshing A/C for those hot summer camping expeditions. The unit will ride inside for travel, then be slipped into place once parked. A "blank" window is next up to fill the hole while traveling.

When Bittygirl is ready to solo if you have a grassy area with a slight downhill run it will make her efforts a lot easier.

Nothing like the great outdoors with A/C to boot :-)

Say howdy to the rest of the PE gang for me as well.
