How does sealant get on my triceps and then my car seat?? more than once??
Aluminum is almost as fascinating as wood.

my design approach is there to be seen - hopefully simple

won't hold much, but that box is about 4 foot four by 8 foot nine so she'll fit some plywood and osb and whatnot without pinching the fingers

its light its less than three hundred pounds for sure, and remember i can take these 10 standard u-bolts & 4 lag bolts off, drop the cabin back on & 8 lag bolts and go for a road trip ;) until then.. the barn fenced stripped down aluminum half axxed laydee is back on the road logging miles ;)

Its been a while... ummm.. uhhhh... the damn trailer still trails. It works. I never even greased the hubs. To put book-ends on this post perhaps I should take those darn warped half axles and make that darn ATV trailer ... at some point. But just for now, she still tows, she does work, because I don't own a pickup truck so I need this 4 1/2 by 9 trailer. Over and out for now..
