What people are saying

  • “Just start somewhere, get the plans, they are invaluable and also the kit made things go much smoother and much faster.”

    Dries van der Westhuizen - DIY Vaga Build w/ Vaga Kit

  • "Having the materials and measurements all listed out in a simple to follow format saved me countless hours on my build. It would have saved even more had I not spent so much time trying to "reinvent the wheel" so to speak. I can't tell you how much time I wasted trying to figure out a different way to do a certain step or process, only to arrive right back where I started in the end. Daniel and Paige have already spent numerous hours doing a lot of the hard work for you and have probably been down the same rabbit holes you have."

    Ben Rittenhouse - DIY Vaga Build

  • “I'm a pretty handy guy, but I don't know how I would have ever built this had I not had the plans from Wander Tears. They turned what would have been months, maybe years of planning into mere weeks, & walked me through every step of the build process; down to every cut I needed to make, & screw I needed to place so that I could work with confidence."

    Jon Coyne - DIY Vaga Build

Why should you build a teardrop camper?

  • SAVE MONEY: Building your camper will save you thousands compared to buying a custom made camper. You can also customize your camper build and timeline to suit your budget. If saving money is important, it can be done for as little as $2,500!

  • LEVEL UP YOUR CAMPING: This is everything you love about camping, with none of the headache. No setup, teardown, dry-out, sleeping on a rock, popping your $300 ultralight blow-up pad, or waking up in a puddle of rainwater. Eat, sleep, and travel the way you need to fully enjoy the outdoors.

  • UNFORGETTABLE EXPERIENCES: The memories don’t start when the camper is complete. This is your chance to build something meaningful with your family or friends that will continue to provide unforgettable experiences, both during the project, and after.

  • YOU HAVE THE SKILLS: If you have basic knowledge of power tools then you can do this! Read the testimonials above. Our plans walk you through the entire process, breaking it down into phases and steps. But, if you decide its not for you, we have a 30 day money back guarantee!

STOP researching, and start building, TODAY!

We’ve been down the rabbit hole of teardrop camper research, and trust us, it’s a deep one. Most people spend months researching before starting their camper build.

With all the information out there it can be overwhelming and often times contradictory. Over the years we have tried many different methods, and discovered the simplest and strongest ways to complete a DIY teardrop.

After personally building more than 30 teardrop trailers, we have taken everything we’ve learned and applied it in our plans, making sure that every step is easy to understand and execute. With Wander Tears you will create a travel companion that you’ll be proud to have built.
