In the instruction portion on the plans on page 6 it talks about what sheet material is needed for floor and side walls. It also gives options for different thickness sheets you could use.
It looks like you are building the trailers in quantity. A simple table jig would really help and ensure accuracy and speed production. You guys can obviously cut and weld steel and a jig would help tremendously. You have the right work attitude anyway.
Good Morning, We actually do not build in quantity. When we come out with new blueprints we do a test build to make sure the plans are good to go before we offer them for sale. Yes, if we were to build in quantity we would build jigs to speed up the process, but as of now we only build one trailer per blueprint we offer.
The back doors, Man they suck. I'd like to see you put a long back gate that swivels at the top with pins you slide out at the bottom to dump or if you're feeling froggy put hydraulic or electric pins on like a toggle switch for a no smash your skin rear end. You guys did an awesome job.
The cost of Steel will be biggest cost factor as that price fluctuates all the time and varies on location. Steel prices may be vastly different where we are compared to you.
What hub face size n spring center did you use? Im actually planning to build one of these exact builds myself. Also not to sure on the steel framing, where did you buy yours from?
Nice video. You need to add a tarp or cover to it. It seems every cop is writing tickets for uncovered loads and many land fills won't allow trailers that are not covered to even enter.
honestly it is hard to ballpark and steel prices vary across the country. At this time we built this we spent around I believe $3,000 in steel. Prices for steel are constantly changing going up and down.
Impossible to quote because you have to buy your steel locally so prices will vary a lot. But it should cost about 1/3 the price of buying a factory built trailer.
A new one is about $15,000 there parts kit alone is over $5,000 with no steel. Also a lot of the parts in there parts kit are not the ones pictured in the video I/e fenders in the kit are the cheapies the tongue jack is a cheapy. My thought is at least price the parts you shown in the video.
nice job might help convince others to build one if you could give a ball park figure to build compared to buying the same trailer size. Enjoyed the video and will be a subscriber.
I bought a set of 5k axles from these guys 18 months ago to rebuild a utility trailer. When I calculated the cost to build one of these dump trailers, it was about 1/3 the cost of buying a factory built unit of comparable quality. These guys have the best prices for quality axles and they are nice guys in real life.

What type of paint was used?
We typically use rustoleum paint and spray ourselves

I love this dude. Badass trailer man I’m about to dumb a like on this video 👍
Thank you
You guys should make gooseneck dump trailer plans
starting on 26' tandem 10k dual axles ... with deck or goose
Awesome, thank you so much.
Your welcome
how much for the plan,s and a kit I need one
Great build man, wondering total cost of materials??
The cost of Steel will be biggest cost factor as that price fluctuates all the time and varies on location. Steel prices may be vastly different where we are compared to you.
Can you name the price of yours( steel that is)
What hub face size n spring center did you use? Im actually planning to build one of these exact builds myself. Also not to sure on the steel framing, where did you buy yours from?
Sorry we missed your question. On our build we used 7,000lb axles with hubface of 95" and spring centers of 80"
Awesome video!
Thanks!
Amazing job Antix Productions!
Nice video. You need to add a tarp or cover to it. It seems every cop is writing tickets for uncovered loads and many land fills won't allow trailers that are not covered to even enter.
yes they do need a tarp kit. Its actually a law in most states do to people being tired of loosing windshields or being behind a dust storm
How much in material ball park ?

Nice trailer
lol the human weld curtain
awesome video. helps me to learn.
Wish the plans were offered in a telescopic design as well as a gooseneck design, Scissor lifts are quickly becoming outdated in the market
Very cool!!
