It's 1.5x1.5x1/8".

Today's update. It's ready for skin next week.

I considered a raised top, but I want to keep the profile a little lower, plus I'm new to welding. I probably could do it, but I want to test what I've got going first. The bottom angle iron will bolt through the round roll top of the trailer once I have the hinges, gas shocks and front clasp...

Very nice work.

Thanks! Both are works in progress.

I did a mock up of the jerry can rack and placed it in position, but I don't like it. The tongue box sticks out to far. I think I'll just kept it simple. Mrs. Spark said she likes this better anyway.

The lid will be 12 or 14 gauge steel, depending on advice from the fab shop. McMaster Carr is the preferred fare. Army Surplus gas can? This is beyond Thunder Dome Trailer build here.... LOL So, for tonight's update; what do you see in this accidental Rorschach test?

Here is a peek at the next update....looking for ideas on a jerry can rig. This will go on the triangeled tongue area. I'm fabing some ideas, but nothing's been cut yet.

I haven't fully committed either way on the lid yet. I think that I'm just going to go with a flat roof and do a custom roof rack to match the future FJ roof rack. I'm still tossing around ideas. The tongue is 32 inches from the point of the triangle to the end of the tongue. That should give...

Today's update. My worst weld. My best weld. The lid work has begun.

LOL I love it!

progress update

You've got money! thanks

I'm in for 1 black expo bag.

Looking good. I wish I had a big space like yours. I have to turn sideways just to get between benches and the trailer sometimes. Today was clean up day, so it's not so bad now. Keep up the good work.

Great work! Like someone said, you can't have too much red.
