Really liking this build so far. Couple of questions if you don’t mind.

1. General size specs. Exterior height and length.
2. With the top up - interior heights.
3. Are you going to make plan available through your website?


Thanks!

Thank you

1. Overall height closed 87.5. body length 12ft
2. Interior height closed = 58"~ interior height open (standing area only, sloped top) = 87"~
3. Not sure about plans yet.

I'll decide about plans when this thing is done. Need to finish this trailer and test it out.

Thanks for the info. Won't fit in the garage at 87”. But i wouldn't let that stop me. Looking forward to further development of the build.

What are you using to position your parts for tacking? How are you keeping everything square?

My floor is pretty level. I used 16ga shims on the floor initially. Once it got onto the jack stands I used long pieces of tube and angle clamped across the frame. Everything turned pretty square save for a couple 1/16" discrepancies here and there. I'm happy with how it turned out. I show a lot of frame construction in the video series.

Right on I'll check out the videos.
