i have countless hours of failing at many things, and the patience to go with it, and even though i have not built a trailer on my own (helped with an awesome teardrop last year) i don,t think i have bitten off more than i can chew. i have yet to do due diligence on material weights, and whether my pace-america cargo trailer deck can handle it, ( i used to load it with pallets of cement and/or marble and tile ) but i will cross that road soon. plenty of appropriate parts out there !! metal for the framework has not been bought yet. hoping the axle is not too far forward as i have the unit planned out, , and hoping i choose the right gauge steel for the frame (.065 1" square for the base, and 1' round for the ribs) AND hoping the trailer gods grant me the stamina and luck to complete this !!
thanks for looking !!
