Expo/Camp Trailer on the cheap

[EZE]

Very nice!

Thanks guys. Thinking about cutting of the tube handrail? Maybe adding a structural rail at the top edge of the sides. Then having a tarp made to cover it all up?

Nice build, looking really clean.
For tarps I would suggest MyTarp. I ordered a 5x7 18oz vinyl tarp for my trailer and it is exceptionally well made. They can also do custom covers, which I think I will be trying for my air compressor cover.

Thanks, I'll look them up

I had one made from here that was fitted like a shoe box cover.
It has held up well.

I like the tube rails gives it a vintage look.

Nice work. It turned out sweet.

Decided that tongue was to short, but how short? Couldn't decide so off with the hitch and on with a receiver. Now I can play with the lengths of tube to get it just right, not to mention remove it all together when camping so it doesn't roll-off on its own.

If you bought this because you were board... is there a plan for it (use it, etc), or will you just sell it?

 

[blazinid]

I'll probably sell it. I have a full size truck and it looks to small behind it. Future plans are to own a jeep/land cruiser again but with a daughter that is just about to get her license a "fun" rig isn't in the immediate future.

I'm all done with the trailer. Anyone want to buy it? It's just to darn small behind my truck

Looks good! Would be a pretty good trailer as a starting point for a build.
