Great going John ! What will you be pulling it with ?
It'll be interesting to see the final rendition all hooked
up and ready to roll.


Cheers,

Cool. Can't wait to see the final product. I have a fascination with single wheel trailers & have actually considered that for a little, leeeetle foamie. Couldn't be a big one because I'm afraid I'd take out light posts & pedestrians on the sidewalks when I forget how much longer my vehicle is. :shock:

Can/will you share the specs on yours?

The advantage of going with a uni-wheel trailer is you can easily extend the back of the car to the front of the trailer. The joint would only need to hinge up and down. The hardest part would be the caster wheel. It would need to be a caster with full turning around so backing up can be done. Otherwise much side loading and scrubbing would happen.
