So maybe I can't Stop Anytime?!?

Postby EZDog » Sun Jul 24, 2016 4:12 pm

I have been on the road for the last few weeks in fact I left the day after getting the Baby OTR Wabash Trailer home but on the way home.......

Pretty much of a "Grail" Trailer for me if there is such a thing.

It's a 2005-1610 6'x12' and it is just a beauty of a trailer all around.

It does pull so much better than my others it is tough to believe really and though it is used it is still nicer than my brand new Georgia rig in almost every way!
I need to decide where to start and plot the best way to add windows without having to weld in any support hopefully.

I would have preferred the Barn Doors to the Ramp overall but I am sure I can adapt too.

Now I just need more storage space?

Oh yeah I got that covered too!
I found this little fenced lot a mile from my house and 1/2 block from the local Police Station for cheap,it must have been meant to be.

I feel your pain there EZ. I haven't even finished my first and already making a build list of what I'll do on the next one. Things I'll do different, things I'll leave out, things I want etc etc.

Put up some screen doors at the back and turn the ramp into your back deck ;)

It is on the list if I actually do go RV with this one.

I am trying to decide about windows right now.
The 12" windows which ca fit v=between the stud channels in this one are designed for Horizontal mounting not Vertical and so the weep holes will not work and they might be prone to leaking I am thinking?

After thinking it over a while I am not ruling out getting windows in Horizontal even if it means cutting some support to do so,in fact the way the channels are made it might be pretty simple to add support to the cut ones without any welding as well.

I am really thinking about windows that hinge from the top so they can be open during rain too.
