I need to get some new pictures up. The "lid" is complete now.
If you ever want to build a homemade trailer here is how
not to do it-
• Weld a steel frame capable of holding 10x the weight the trailer will ever actually see.
• Build a trailer body out of oak lumber reclaimed from old pallets. [oak is very heavy]
• Use your background in composites fabrication to make a nice light weight pine and fiberglass lid -then- quite literally, glue rocks to it.
I think this coal cart trailer give Billy-the-(lead filled)-Boombox a run for his money as heaviest trailer.
