Willman's Bantam BT3-C Expedition Trailer Buildup

[OldSven]

I am planning on one of these on each end of the lid to keep it closed.

Same here.

Trailer progress

Lid Construction!

Very nice metal working there Nic. Pehaps I'll have to spend some time taking metal working classes at Willman metal working academy!

The trailer is coming along nicely. Have you decided what to do with your trailer fenders?

I too dig the table! :26_7_2:

 

[spressomon]

what a welding table :shakin:

Ditto...what a dream to have a fab table like that in the garage! I suppose you have a Bridgeport milling machine tucked away in the corner too eh?!

Nice!

I just noticed on the Sierra Expeditions site in the link below that the 1800 series Eezi-Awn is $1800. Would you please ask Wil & Wen to stock the 100 series?

Where can you find these? I'm interested in something similar for my trailer build, but I want to be able to pad-lock it. Is there a source that has a variety of this typ of latch?

 

[nruller]

Fastenal can order them. Allegis is another supplier.

The manufacturer is DESTACO. They have a complete list of their suppliers. Cheapest I could find is about $30 each!

 

[Rezarf <><]

McMaster, search Draw latch.

How are you going to mount the tent to the lid? Roof rack, or welded mounts?
