What an excellent tutorial this is, I particularly like the strength of that steel channel, which makes for a very solid construction. Likewise, the welding back to back of the channel to form the towing beam, making a really solid fabrication. Subscribed.
I’m fixing to do the same thing make sure to update but I fixing to start making my first one Tom I know we could just buy the metal from a store or sum but I know for a fact I can find a bunch of them scrapping
If nothing else i love that your video is straight to the point, to many people just talk to much trying to make their videos longer just to make money. This exactly my speed
Looks like you had it all planned out in your head. A talent that I wish I had. I'm impressed with how you cut all those pieces with one cutoff wheel. I would have been on the third one at least. Great job!
I opt for Harley Topper! This was engineered by Harley Davidson in the 60' to compete with the boasting roller market overwhelming the USA, mainly from Italy, like Vespa or Lambretta. This Topper came out so ugly, it is beautiful again! And the best is, you have to start it with a rope like a lawn mower!
i welded with stickwelders and used oxy accetaline cutting torch for years and never ever wore gloves you just get few sparks hitting but soon get used to it gloves are a bloddy nuciancs
Their wasn't really a plan to it I built it around the axle that I had and as for material cost I only had to pay for the wood,lights,and bolts everything else I had already

Thank you
Soon I’m going to start my building own and selling them but needed this video to learn how to 😂but thank you little by little I’ll learn
I'm glad i was able to help

Right on I'm glad you liked it thank you
This is the best home made trailer I seen
Thanks I've made over 100 of these so far in the last 10 years

Thanks a lot for the tutorial. It has really assisted me and built my confidence to build my on trailer. Be blessed my friend
Your welcome thank you

Great video ❤️ great looking trailer! put that zip cut disc to use till the very end lol 👍
Lol I sure do thank you
I've been wanting to build a utility trailer. Buying them these days is so expensive
They sure are
Great job sir.
thank you
Great work BIG J yaya its MK coming your way!!!!
thanks mike ive made about 100 of these now and still counting
@@jlistdiy yahaya man you crush the work man
Beautiful trailer
Thank you
I got any old trailer from work for free I am going to rebuild it I am thinking of using trex boards on it
@@brandone6252 that would be a good idea and probably would last longer
great job. the deck boards for the floor, were they bolted on? or did you use machine screws?
Thank you and I used lag bolts to hold them on much stronger
Outstanding
Thank you
I would advice you to wear a full PPE and its very risky to use a grinder without a guard
Thank you for the advice
Great job Sir,
It would have been even better if you had hitched it with a car and shown us the test ride.
That would have been a good idea 😃
No gloves this guy's hard core"
Lol 😆
Old school. GJ sir.
i never wore gloves they just got in way
What type of metal are you using to build this trailer? I think it's easier to cut and move around
It's 1.5 inch by 3 inch C channel
What did the axle come off of?and what glue would you say is best stick or wire?
The axle came off another trailer that was at the local scrap yard and I prefer to use stick welding for stronger welds
is that trailer powder coated or its just paint?
It's just paint
I don't like grinder gaurds at all.. but if your going to run on with no gloves between your legs your just asking for pain.
Yeah I need to get a new grinder with some safety to it
@@jlistdiy on my grinder i remove safety on first use.
@@dusanvr I seem to do the same thing also
@@dusanvr i do this too they get in the way
Is this something you kept or sold kind wanna make one for myself
This is one I sold
@@jlistdiy what was your profit on it minus what you had in it?
@@damienmielcarek356 about $600
!!!CAUTION!! you're going to damage your skin welding without gloves. good job on the build though
Thanks for the info I'll definitely take that into consideration 👍
i welded with stickwelders and used oxy accetaline cutting torch for years and never ever wore gloves you just get few sparks hitting but soon get used to it gloves are a bloddy nuciancs
Can you send me the plan of it including the material cost and sizes
Their wasn't really a plan to it I built it around the axle that I had and as for material cost I only had to pay for the wood,lights,and bolts everything else I had already
@@jlistdiy ok thanks
The text on screen is posted to short . Had to watch video multiple times in order to read it all :(
This is the time lapse version I have the original videos in my video library if you like to watch them
@@Room1sixtyfive I have the slower version but its in part 1,2,3 and about an hour long
Why not just pause it?
Where did you get the axle and how much?
I got the axle from my local scrap yard they charged me by weight i believe it was only $30
How much spend in this project?
Only cost about $160 but I got the metal for free with the axle I only had to pay for the wood and lights and paint
How do you get it square
Measure from corner to coner
Coulda built it in 5 if you had better tools
@@tazzthedoodle7861 yeah probably 😆
How much does it cost ?
My total cost was only $160 that's only because I had gotten everything for free except the lights and paint and deck wood
Maybe a good video ???? But unwatchable with text descriptions shown in the blink of an eye ... constantly having to pause ... re edit mate
That's because you watched the timelapse version here is the original version starting with part 1 th-cam.com/video/UIYsGYkJhG4/w-d-xo.html
@@jlistdiy ... Thank you :) EXCELLENT !!!!!!!!!
@@ianmac2963 your welcome
way to go teaching cutting with a grinder with no gloves and not guard!!!!
and your right safety should be number 1 priority
@@jlistdiy He's a youtube safety clown nothing better to do but to critique.
