Big on the Outside, Small on the Inside...
...of my shed, that is.
Last month I bought a used trailer for $30. It had been a pet carrier with removable wheels that a previous owner added a plywood flatbed to. I added a 50-gallon plastic tote/tub and replaced the rail-mounting bolts with cotter pins for quick assembly and disassembly. Today I finally figured out how to fold the rails flat to the topside of the trailer bed. The arm folds underneath the load-floor. As you can see from the photo the bed, rails and wheels almost fit completely between the wooden frame supports on the shed wall, and I hung the the tote/tub above to save on floor space. If I was more handy at carpentry, I'm sure I could devise a way to hang the assembled trailer, but for as seldom as I use it, this works fine. It all goes together in under 5-minutes...just over 2-minutes if I hurry. Sorry I don't know the make and model of the original trailer. Just wanted to share. Also, on the photo of the assembled trailer, I see the tub has shifted towards the rear. Normally it snaps in between two wooden guides, but an unexpected bump had dislodged it. https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...f91d5921ad.jpg https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...26b7769bef.jpg |
