- The trailer is done. Surprisingly simple and went together quick. A few cuts some screws and rivets and there you have it. A Trailer...LOL. Thanks for watching. Any questions or comments please leave them below.
Any way to leave a list of what you used? I have been looking to make one but I don't have access to a welder to make one and what you have done is amazing thanx for sharing also people like you who enlighten other are great thanx again ..
Wow....$50 in materials and 6 minutes of your time and you've got a killer trailer that your buds will be jealous of. VERY nice !!!!
Nice tutorial dude ! This will be how i build mine as I dont weld .
Just found this channel, glad I did. As a complete noob, who'd like to try his hand at making his own trailer, this video is a HUGE help. Thanks dude!
Stumbled across this video and have to say that now I have to make a trip to Home Depot or CTC to get me some angle aluminum so I can build one. Great video! Thanks :)
Thanks...I used 8/32 threaded rod and 1/4 brake line. The threaded rod fits perfect inside the brake line. I didn't use any bearings so there is some friction but nothing that will hinder it....The trailer rolls smooth.
you make it look so simple. I would't know where to start.... great idea!
Nice build !! and that cat is amazing looking!
Thank you for the video , I just finished making on out of a IKEA metal shelf , I didn't no how to attach the wheels but now I see , so wicked Mon !!!!
cool glad that worked for you
Awesome video
I gave it a shot today and I was practicing my angles for the corners
After doing it today you need to mark out a 45 degree angle for ur cuts or it wont bend correctly
I also tried just straight edges example 4 seperate pieces snd riveting it together or screws it works but needs so grinding and filing for my liking
Then I went and got steel angle and tried brazing took to much time and way to heavy
So im thinking 45 degree cut and bend it and b done with it and then rivet the last corner
That’s a great trailer , I think I might make one myself, thanks for explaining how you built it mate .
Good simple design.
Using that aluminum, if you don't want rivets showing, you could easily solder in the mesh in spots with a good iron.
Nice job overall.
Be well and have fun.
I used a piece of 8/32 threaded rod inserted into a 1/4 break line. Then the break line is cut to the withe of the trailer. Now I hold the piece of brake line between the two mounting plates that I installed and then the threaded rod is just inserted into the break line. Now on the outside of the mounting brackets you need to instal washers or whatever you have on hand for spacer. The treaded rod is spiining on its self
I purchased all my materials from Canadian tire. The mesh is used to keep leaves and debris out of your houses rain gutter. Not sure the exact name but it comes in a bundle with 4 sheets of it. If you ask the CDN tire guy should be able to point you in the right directions. The aluminum is (Alum- Angle 1/16" x 3/4"). Hope that helps. Let me know if you need anymore info
Great video, I will have to try building one like this for my wraith with some leafsprings for suspension. Thanks for the video
that will be sick...Thanks
WOW...!!! Love this... You mean I don't have to spend 245$ at RC4WD..? AMAZING...!!!
Good looking trailer i was wondering how to build one quick and easy thanks for the help.
glad it helped
Nice! I just built a trailer today and it is 15" by 30". It's big, park a slash on it and have enough space to parka wraith on it. Or 2 traxxas rustlers.
perfect
I am going to make one for my self looks nice and fun
YOU HAVE A BENGAL CAT!! AMAZING!!. oh and thanks for the "how to" vid, very use full!
lol...I do. Thanks...Appreciate the feedback
Love it. Will make for a perfect base for my 1:10 vintage travel trailer.
What a coincidence, my friend Shawn?
Yesterday I finished making a trailer for my Jetboat with aluminium.
Great Job. Yours is Awesome.
Awesome idea.
Thanks man...Appreciate it. yep a nut and a piece of brake line as a spacer. It roles free because I have a bit of space so it doesn't bind...I will be working on making that better.
Hey, if you drill the holes on the axel mounts oval shaped from top to bottom it would give it some travel for the wheels to articulate some when its moving over terrain that's not completely flat, just a thought
thats a good idea
Congratulations man fantastic creation for rc cart💪💪👌👌👌
Great simple design. Getting ready to build one myself.
Thanks...post some vids of it. I'd like to check it out .
Everything works great. No need to reinforce anything. I have a trail video of me pulling it loaded with a rig in some very rough terrain and it survived that. The mesh is from Canadian tire and is used for rain gutters around your house. Keeps leaves out.
I just built on just like yours except I used nylon lock nuts rather then using double nuts works grate just a suggestion. And thank you for the grate ideas.
hanks. will do for the next trailer build
shawnroy81 honestly i would have welded it.. well thats just me but i am the only man alive who wants to use a bandit as a tow vehicle so................. take it with a grain of salt in my defense i am just towing on road so i can tow my scx10 to my local park and i dont have to carry it
Nice looks great
thanks
I just pulled out random hardware from my junk drawer. What I did do @ the end was replace everything with Rivets which is much faster and easier. The rivet gun was under 10$ and it came with 100 rivets well enough to do the job
use some solder to hold where you bent it because it may be weak there, but looks great gonna do this for my scx10 im gettin
I have been using this trailer for over 2 years and I put it to the test for sure. It's holding up great
I used the same angle for everything. For the hitch peace I only used a rod ball end. The bumper I use is a Rockarmor and the hitch it comes with is a ball. So to hitch everything up I just press the ball end on the ball of the hitch
Dude I would love to build one of thos just a little bigger to put on my X maxx and pull the 4s maxx I walk around my neighborhood with my trucks alot and that would really turn heads. Awesome build.
Nice one and thank you for sharing. I've been looking for ideas how to build one for my boys truck. One thing that drove me bonkers is some of the comments on this video. Give me this, give me that. Lads, the man here gave you the 💡 idea!!! What more do you want? Get off your bums, go to the local hardware, grab some tools and materials and Do it!!!! And yes, USE YOUR IMAGINATION!!!!! I'm tired of people just waiting and begging for things. He shared enough, the rest is up to the rest of us. Rant over
Around two inches in the back you should make anther triangle cut on both sides to make a beaver tail for the trucks
Great job man! Looks like a pro did it! Glad you did this build. Im trying to build a trailer but didnt know where to start
not sure what mine was but that will do. You don't need anything overkill
just a ballend on the truck and a ballend cap for the trailer. It alows it to move and pivot plus I had a few laying around
That's an awesome job. Def given me ideas for when I want to build my trailer. Cheers for your video
Nice....I'm making one out f 18 gauge stainless steel...24"x11" with a 10 degree bend for a ramp and 2.2 tires....should have it by Tuesday
Great work. Looks great.
Very cool. Thumbs up from me.
he has a Leppard! that's awesome!
+151tdawg shes a Bengal
Nice job, but I REALLY like the cat that stepped into view for a second....looked like a mini-cougar !!!
Cute cat
I'm going to do this!!
That trailer very cool
I used 1/4" brake line and 8/32" threaded rod. The threaded rod spin freely in the brake line. Maybe a bid of grease if you want and then my "L" brackets to attach it all the the Trailer. I thread some Nuts on the threaded rod for spacers and that's pretty much it. It mite take a bit of tweaking with washers to get the spacing just right
While saving money from buying cheap materials, you could buy a propper tools such as a little hummer. And what about sower mesuring tape? :D
Anyway, great VDO with even greatel final result ;)
Perfect video, great walk through. If I could suggest anything is put the list of materials you bought into the description. I want to build this same trailer and I'm very impressed how simple you made it look... I can follow those instructions thanks. (y)
+RCforU Thank you very much.Its an old build of mine so I don't have the part list anymore. IF you look in the comments on the video im sure you will be able to find it. If I do get the info I will for sure post it. Thanks again
+shawnroy81 I have the angle iron cut and ready a while ago, I bought Canadian tire gutter guard last night. hubs and axle still needed
nice your on your way. Let me know how it goes when its all done
+shawnroy81 thank you, I will!
the most informative build .....EVER!nice one man keep'em comin
All I used was aluminum angle from Canadian tire and some screws. The axles are 8/32 threaded rod and 1/4 brake line. The mesh was a kit from Canadian tire for covering your rain gutters. Nothing specific. You can try other materials.
Thanks Buddy! ! Hoping to see a trailer for the mini mono boat from a while back!
Awesome job. I just found this video and had to subscribe, this is exactly what I need to do for my scx10 jeep. There is a Canadian Tire a few miles from me that carries all the materials you used. Thanks for showing this build.
I used a ball head screw and then a ball head cup. They just snap on and off.
You made it look to easy, good job man, looks great
best video yet I've seen well its got me going out Monday and getting what I need to make one a big thank you for the post
I made one just like it this video helped me a lot
for the mounting braked I just secured two rectangle piece of aluminum to the trailer sides. Lined it up with the one across from it and then drilled a hole just big enough for the threaded to to fit in but the brake line will not go through. That way the brake line is held under the trailer between the mounting plates.
wow bro this is a work of art , simple straight to the point love it!
Thanks man...Appreciate it. I will post another trailer build video probably this weekend as I am building a smaller trailer to haul random scale accessories.
sorry to bug ya man but... this is a cool trailer very little money. my questions are....what size piece did u use for the tongue from and was it cut the same as the frame. how did u determine wheel base. and how long did u cut threaded rod and did nut fit and set into brake line. one nut in brake line on on inner frame and other on outer frame???? did u put a bearing in the wheel. sorry man but ur stuff is rather cool. love the videes just hard to catch it all in fast motion lol. great work
thanks. hope to see everybody on the trails with trailers...LOL
Nice good job 👍👍👍👍🇲🇾👌
Do you think we can use the same size angle for everything or does it have to be different sizes? Don't forget to show the hitch part!!! Thumbs Up and favorited and u got a subscriber.
Thanks...I love my trailer...LOL...I still use it all the time. Cheap to make and extremely durable.
nice...they are fun to build. Pretty simple.
Looks Hella good man. Great work!
thanks
goooooood job... :)
thanks
dude thats sick
Great practical skills....👍
My version of yours. Fits a Slash. 25x13
Custom scale axial scx10 trailer. All aluminum
nice
How have you fixed the threaded bar and still got the wheels to spin? You’ve fixed the bar both sides of the bracket
Looks awesome!
yeah, if i get a scaler, could i use it too? i already know your answer but making sure.
That looks great man!! Beauty work. Been thinking for a long time, yours could be the easiest. Love the aluminum look. Plus it's light.
for sure. go ahead
Awesome video, can you make a vid on how you made the hitch.
That would be great
simple and effective nice job.
The tongue was 1/16' x 3/4" flat aluminum and the rest of the trailer was 1/16' x 3/4" Angle Aluminum
I've watched a number of your videos. Which are good. Here is my one complaint, Could you please slow down just a bit. You skip important details, like measurements. It can leave some watchers "lost". Just something to consider. (Your trailer build video is a good example) Thanks
Thanks. Cool...I'll keep that in mind for my next build series
@@shawnroy81 can't you put this video back on but slower? That would be helpful.
Great build Shawn!! Dont know if u have made ur Hitchcock yet but if not check mine out! It allows the trailer to have full articulation. Dont know if uve seen mij 6x6 crawler now got a homemade rollcage On......
I used old Proline Hammers and axial beadlock from my Dingo but anything will do. The trailer tires dont matter. On another trailer I built I ended up using my tamiya highlift rims and tires that I never used. Anything will do. Prices I can't really help with you would have to check ebay or your local hobby shop.
sweet build , wish i had you confidence, how did you get those axles so correct in angle to run true ?? i never saw you do any measuring to make sure your holes were true to each other ??
very impressive
start at 75 for a basic trailer frame with 2 articulating axles v-tongue with ball end and ball for hitch. wheels and tires are extra or supply your own to match your vehicle. add for suspension. add for fenders. add for any extras like ramps, special flooring, side rails, etc. welded 1/2" x 1/8" hot rolled carbon steel
Awesome project dude
you wouldnt use a welder, you would braze a trailer together which reqiures a lot of heat
thanks...i will be making another trailer soon and I'll do it up then
How are the nuts not unscrewing from the wheel whenever it rolls??
Having the same problem now? Did you figure it out
What will be strong enough to be a 22 inch long trailer and 12 inch wide for a slash and a tf2 to pull? What will be best angle aluminum, channel, or square tubing? I might haul a heavy metal diecast john deere 544j wheel loader that is almost completely steel? Any ideas which will be strong enough and still easy to build with out welding it.
Merci.C’était très simple. J'ai utilise 8/32 alltread rod et un ligne a frein de 1/4
Very cool I might have to make one to lol
with a pivot ball and a threaded rod
not sure what black thing your referring too and I'm in Canada so not sure about the Philippines.
To sick .. I am starting hoedully tommorrow
great video, i am thinking on doing a trailer like that, what are the dimientions on the angle iron???
Awesome man , very helpful video ,
How does it ride without suspension? Im building a trailer myself and have gotten the decking squyared away. Just stuck on how to mount axles. Thinking about going no suspension vs the leaf springs I was intended. Thoughts?
What's making your tires hold straight? The car in the middle of building a trailer myself and I'm a little stuck on keeping the wheel straight not wobbling all over the place.
