[@gsettlemyre]

Thank you Mr. Stan G and Texas Pride Trailers for teaming up and allowing us, the viewers the opportunity to win such an amazing looking trailer. What an accomplishment for both. Awesome build in just 14 hours, knowing how it’s built is one thing, seeing it built, painted and fully assembled is another. I have been watching other KZbin channels build their own trailers in much smaller fashion, after watching this one being built it will be hard to go back and watch them take 5-6 sometimes 12 episodes to start and finish a trailer.....who am I kidding, I love watching these kinds of builds. I share them with others through Facebook and Instagram to help spread the word. It only seems right to help someone else that has potentially help me learn something for free, none the less. Keep up the good work, look forward to seeing the next video being posted.

Too bad they won't be able to see when they get older. Closing your eyes isn't good enough.

[@ratona007ued]

And no respiratory ppe either

[@Privateuser0308]

Actually the part about welding that hurts your eyes the most is uv light. You are correct that your eye lids alone will not protect you, but polycarbonate safety glasses (the plastic glasses they wear) block 99% of uv light which Essentially makes tacking without a hood safer than being outside in the sunlight without sunglasses. I would be more concerned about skin cancer on my face then arc flash to the eyes, which wouldn't be of much concern either because if you have ever done much welding with MIG, you would know that you can welding without a hood all day, you use your gas cup as a way to block the majority of the arc flash and just watch the puddle behind the arc. Do your research before commenting bub

[@ForensicCats]

19:23 the painter is arching his paint and causing a weak bond, plus he is not overlapping his paint from front to back. Parallel and consistent pressure and flow creates the best bond. He needs to stay parallel with the surface, no wonder a person below (in the pinned comments) complained about his paint failure. Finally, they should consider reinforcing the door (14:39) uprights / hinge support, I can imagine those bed walls spreading at those locations... = a more rigid top-rail for this trailer with more uprights (14:43 shows no uprights) on the exterior to resist the outward forces; it appears they are depending on the shape of the wall design for reinforcement (the bend in the walls). 14:07 it appears the ''closures'' are installed where the door meets those side panel's design and unless doors seal that area, dirt will vibrate onto the ground as you drive, also note, those ''closures'' will add some strength to the rear of the trailer and door stability. I am guessing I will not get the trailer for free with my comments... But, thank you for posting and for TexasPride for being a good sport (please work on your DTM paint materials and quality control). 15:00 if he was able to distort the welded doors and trailer frame with that pry bar then the trailer is not stiff enough and yes, I notice his spreader bar at the rear while he was welding doors and when he removed the bar, the trailer ''curled inward" and this can bind your doors, he then attempted to pry the walls back out or deform the door shape, one or the other.

50k trailers built and they're still plasma cutting the stuff while they're building it? Think they'd be far past that by now. And all off-the-shelf parts. After building 50k trailers, they should be having clamps made instead of using conduit clamps.

[@jkhuskies09]

I was thinking the same thing. They could have all the parts already cut to spec and ready to go. Have 2-3 guys cutting parts for the whole shop ahead of time and label for each trailer type/customer. All this team would have to do was weld and done. Basic assembly line 101. They do a pretty good job with what they’ve got though.

[@andrewviperpingel9565]

Bro if ant broke dont fix it

[@johneden7975]

Yeah you could have all the stuff in stores ready to go. But 5axis laser cutters are expensive for the tubing. It looked as efficient as it had to be. I want to follow the HiLo operator around for a day. That guy was a whiz with that thing! He also seems to be in charge of the dispatch list for the BOMs.

[@jkhuskies09]

John Eden I’m not talking a laser, even having a saw operation or plasma table that just cuts your lengths and plates would be faster. I used to work in the fan industry and we had to weld lots of plates, beams and angles together. Everything was cut and processed well before the welder ever touched it. Just saying a little prep goes a long way.

[@johneden7975]

jkhuskies09, No laser no saw no plasma, how in the heck is the ‘team’ supposed to have all this stuff cut? I currently design deposit and filling machines for large scale baking operations globally. I think they are able to compete because they sell a premium product in small batches. With simple building overhead costs.

Looks like they could invest in a plasma table and automated saw to get all the materials cut to final lengths rather than have to plasma cut everything on the spot. You can’t tell me they’re getting the best fit ups freehanding cuts. That being said I’m sure they know way more about building trailers than I do.
