How difficult to make the side walls fold down on heavy duty hinges to expose the interior?
@rgsabat7 күн бұрын
It would be no more difficult than building the rear door. Definitely feasible.

How many feet would you say you used for the 2x1 tubes for walls and also the 2x2 tubes for the roof? I've been wanting to turn my flat bed into enclosed for awhile but your videos are the only help i can find for doing a conversion

Have you considered adding structural foam sheathing to the outside of the framing?
@rgsabat Жыл бұрын
I don’t need the foam for what I use the trailer for, but it would be easy to add if someone wanted to.

I am planning to build one. What are some setbacks you have encountered and what things do you think can be improved?
@rgsabat3 жыл бұрын
I wish I had build the frame a little lighter (I have a plasma, so I wish that I had cut out a pattern to lighten the 7" main beams). I also wish that I spent more time on making the front of the trailer more aerodynamic. Also, the 4'x8' overlapped roof sheets leak some water sometimes, despite the caulking (but that's not a big deal for me because almost everything is metal inside the trailer. Buying a one piece aluminum roof would be better. Good luck.

I see all the i-beams and those are extremely heavy, you're talking 30 lb per beam? plus 50 for the long i beams and 40 for the cross sections what are you at like 600 lb already? at least?
@rgsabat Жыл бұрын
main c-channel beams are 9.8 lbs per foot, there are no i-beams. If I wanted a light weight trailer, I would have bought one already built from a random company. This is a 14k custom trailer built to haul heavy loads
