Teardrop Builders Hall of Fame... (click here to see all of them)

I've been modeling teardrops and tiny travel trailers in CAD for a while now. Recently I came across a really great, simple way to share these models with the world! It's called Virtual Reality. My CAD program exports virtual reality (.wrl) files and all you need to view these files is a free Internet Explorer plugin called "Cortona". You can get it here... http://www.parallelgraphics.com/products/cortona/

People always ask if I have plans for my teardrops. I don't. I am working on a set of generic building plans that you can apply to most of the designs here. The specific dimensions that you need can be pulled right from the model using a program called Model Press reader. You can download Model Press Reader here... http://www.modelpress.com/download.htm It's the second program on the page... :-)

To download the wrl files to your computer for model press reader, right click on the wrl file and select "Save Target as".

To view these files in vivid 3D right from your browser make sure you have Cortona installed (see above) and then just click on the wrl files... Hint... to get your viewing experience under control, try the study button...
