Did the chassis come from an old caravan or trailer?
Do you mind me asking how much it has cost so far?

Teardrop

Thanks! The chassis was from an old trailer tent bought from a scrappie. It's cost a couple of hundred so far, but the ally sheeting I need for the roof will cost about £300 unless I can find a substitute. Some of the wood was salvaged from builder's skis and woodyard offcuts. The struts between the two sides were sawn-into-thirds skirting board from a woodyard skip. I haven't done any wiring yet, but I have one of those 3way powerpoints with a tripswitch from my old caravan, and I will fit some 12v lighting and a battery and charger when it's more weathertight. At the moment it sleeps under a tarpaulin :(
