Here's my resume and where I am on my build.
Spent a few months, during my formative years, in a sheet metal shop, until I hurt my hand.
So far I have built one utility trailer from scratch and rebuilt an old boat trailer into a tilt trailer for my golf cart.
I have done some odds and end wood projects. From a 19' bookcase to three different pulit / podiums and other misc. pieces.
I have been in the automotive industry for 25 years so wiring and chassis stuff is no problem.
Currently, I am in the process of dismantling a 1969 22' Kenskill camp trailer. I will take the rear axle (it has tandem axles) and put it under the tilt trailer. It's axle has rotted away and in my move back to the wetside of the state it broke.
Then, I am going to lop off 8' off the tail of the trailer and approx. 2' out of the middle to shorten the frame.
The pieces that I cut off will be used for a step well.
So, very little of the donor trailer will be left. And, practically all of it will be recycled.
