Building From Scratch

Postby ironman » Mon Dec 24, 2012 7:20 pm

Sometimes in order to get what you want you have to build it yourself.
Here's a lightweight way to build a high quality trailer.

Step one is done by a sheet metal shop
The rest can be done at home if you have a welder.
I like system three silvertip epoxy glue in cartridges
I reccommend buying the bare trailer with plywood floor.
