I don't have a clue. Honestly it has never even crossed my mind. I just figured the trailer was good for what I wanted to put in it and went for it.

Another Utah'n .
Loving the build. Did you have any issue going directly to the factory and buying ?
"LOOK" trailers are also built in Springville , I'd like to avoid the dealers.

I actually bought through a local guy that I have bought quite a few trailers from. I just went and picked it up at the Pace factory which is also the Look factory. I believe they merged a few years back. But it worked out well because I asked if they had any mismatched windows laying around and they found me a couple 22"X30"s. I think they cost me a $100 each.

My first thought. . . Holy crap, he’s gonna fab a residential sized barbecue to this thing. Just having some fun. I’m enjoying your build.

Screwed them to the wall.

Presto! a paper towel rack.

Probably not hard to figure this one out.

Equipment (TP) installed.

My thought when I saw all the welding of square stock was perhaps I could scratch my gas pipe furniture itch with my build. Nope, too heavy. Then I come across the iron pipe flange and copper pipe. Maybe not furniture, but towel racks and such. Nice idea.

Some how I missed this back in july. Apparently my notifications are off. :oops: A barbecue is a good Idea. My original idea was a heavy duty swing away bike rack. Maybe some day :NC

Thanks, so far they are working good! Yep! I come from a long line of metal fabricators. Sometimes it is easier to just weld it, whether it's the best way or not.

Icon,
not sure if you are on here anymore, now that your build is completed.
Just wanted to say what a read this all was. :applause: :thumbsup: :applause:
Everyone was right about the skill you have.
I have just recently bought a 6' x 12' Cargo, and have been spending time going through new and older posts
on here, for help, with ideas, how to do this and not do that.
And after reading through your complete log this afternoon, I'm amazed how well yours turned out.
Thank you for a exceptional log, writing and pictures.. :)

I do pop in once in a while. (Gotta see what adventures Don is up to!) Believe it or not I still have a window to install and flooring to lay. Looks like you are making good headway on your build. Keep the pics coming and thanks for the kind words.
