If you are interested, I've started a blog to follow the construction of my self-designed teardrop.

Yes ... no grey water tank necessary ... just a pan or bucket to catch it then dispose of it in/at a proper drainage (most campgrounds and state/national parks don't want you draining it right on the ground at or near your campsite, and some will even fine you).
