My corner posts on my trailer were not a straight through design so they just filled up with dirt and water. Also the cage was a complete prick to remove on the odd occasion I wanted to remove it. Im in the process of rebuilding the Trailer so this time Im going to make the corner posts sealed and have the cage bolt on with bolted sides so it can be flat packed when removed.
im 100% with you on your decision. personally I don't like making cages fit like this one. as time goes one the trailer will slowly bow witch than creates the holes in the trailer to not line up to the cage witch results in not being able to use the cage.
@@joshuasgs3 Yeah, the old cage had to levered up one corner at a time with a demo bar and packed with pieces of wood until it popped out, then you had to get inside it to walk it off if you were by yourself, then you had to get out of it once it was off, LOL. Shit design, but it worked. New one will be a couple of bolts and lift off complete or side by side, Easy!
hey man i live in sa aswell i noticed the trailer was registered there would you be able to do me a cage for my truck its the same dimensions as a 10x5 get back to me another good video for you to make =)
hey mate I'd love to but unfortunately the fab part of my business has been put on hold until I get a workshop due to shit from next door trying to get us kicked out
Muzac was a turn off. Not every one who want's to see a fabrication video want's to hear techno. That left muting it and reading the captions. The muzac spoiled your good video. (for me anyway.) Thanks.
What’s the size of box section your using and thickness great build and great video
The rhs (box section) is 40mm/40mm/1.6mm
"I like your welds G"
Thanks Jordan ill be sure to show them more next video.
Hi great video (although I wasn’t too keen on the music). Did you use galvanised steel for the cage?
sorry about the music. I guess everyone has different taste.
yes it is galvanised steel.
What dropsaw & grinder disc do you use mate?
What thickness wall rhs tube did you use? 2mm, 2.5mm, 3mm?
No gloves when welding?
Pretty slack use of PPE all round, really.

yeah dude definitely a bolt down design is the most functional. works out easier for removal and attaching of the trailer.
