- January 2018 rig tour. Talking about the whole set up from the truck up front to the trailer itself and how it was finished. Inspired from Ron Paulk’s ART. Added some of my own touches along the way. I’d say the trailer is about 90% Finished. Still have a few things to do to say the build is at 100% and then it will be constantly evolving to become more efficient. Thanks for watching.

Very well done and thought out. I too have a Paulk inspired trailer. Actually I helped build 3. Myself, my father and another friend that we work with. Once you have one of these you wonder how you did without it. Thanks for the tour.
I can agree with that. I had been planning the trailer for a while. I was in business 2 years before I finally bought the trailer. I don’t think I could go back now. My work has evolved a little bit too and I end up on bigger jobs where I can park my trailer on site for a significant amount of time.
Fantastic Job! So jealous. Great video thank you for sharing! Love the coffee bar and micro. Sound system is cool.
Thanks for sharing. Nice setup. Nicely done!
Awesome build! Love the coffee maker/ microwave and especially the sound system!!
Tyler Hooper me too. Those all live on in the new build except I decided to add a furnace, fridge, and AC unit!
Thanks for the tour. I’m a diy guy, however your ideas are even helpful for a fixed workshop.
brian murray organization is key. I should do more updates. The trailer has been changing a lot.
you did a very good job man I love working on an organized trailer like this
Water Damage CleanUp us too. It’s made it easy to grow and new guys learn the trailer very quickly
Awesome trailer
Super nice trailer organizing!
streetfiremkv12 thanks much! Sometimes it’s a pain to keep looking good. But before big jobs I like to do a deep clean so I start off on the right foot!
I like the new and improved vertion, the white and the red pack out is sick, best looking one on youtube if you ask me, this version is fine, but done to exaustion by everyone!
I Agree! There are things that I will do differently in the next railer Build!
@@TheRealBeardedBuilder cant wait to see the new build! You are a very talented dude!
@@benjytheframer2781 I believe the video of the 90% complete trailer is up! It was a fun build last year
Very nice setup!
Peter West thank you much. It was a blast to build.
I love what you did! I think the layout seems even more tidied up than Paulk´s! All thumbs up.
Martin Voss-Jensen thank you much! It’s been a great addition to the business.
Love to see the benches when you're done!
KEVINFERN0 I had a lot of time lapse footage when I built the trailer. Unfortunately I lost it all. I will try and get some together for the bench build.
Cool, man! Looks awesome! So far, I've built the Paulk Total Station, and I love it so far! My only advice is to make it out of as light of plywood as possible; I sprung for baltic birch, which is strong and pretty, but it's very heavy and cumbersome when made into a 3'x5'x10" bench. All the Best!
Nice job bro!!
High Ridge Handyman thanks!
Good job thanks for sharing
Dean Johnstone it was a really fun build. Can’t wait to finish it up and get it all dialed in.
Great!
Great job on the trailer and on the video - thanks
davis2022 make sure to check out the 2020 tour and the remodel series of this very same trailer!!
@@TheRealBeardedBuilder Just checked and I've already seen it and liked - didn't realize it was the same one. Kudos
davis2022 the new build is coming along really well. I’m excited to finish it up and get it on TH-cam!
@@TheRealBeardedBuilder Looking forward to it! Maybe one day mine will be far enough along to do a video. Hopefully this Summer.
Nice set up
Ron Paulk can you guess where I got the plans? It’s been a great setup for the last 6 months I’ve been in it. Can’t wait to get some benches built! Thanks for what you do!
Ron Paulk great plans Ron
Nice trsiler...empty drawers are good ! Means ur growing!
toyo 250 I have one spare drawer now. Things are filling up!
Nice! I like the idea of having the exterior light bars.
BryaninMSP it’s great for early mornings or late nights. I don’t use them in the summer so much because we’re home at a decent time in the evening. In the winter, however, it’s dark by 4 in the afternoon.
@@TheRealBeardedBuilder what did you use for the switch? I couldn't find anything I thought was heavy enough.
@shooshinejonnie which switch are you referring to?
@@TheRealBeardedBuilder did you have a remote switch for your exterior light bar?
@shooshinejonnie all the lights are independently controlled above the side door. I wired them all to regular light switches like you would see in your house or shop.
How wide is your walkway? I have about half of the cabinets built and thought i needed to have at least an 8 foot wide trailer. However you are making it work with a 7ft.
Amazing job!
I have spent a lot of time looking at Rons trailer and variations of it on TH-cam - with this one being THE BEST so far. You appear to live in colder weather as I do so I had a few questions about insulating it, coffee pot, paint Yata ... (I live in the maritimes - Canada). Do you have a garage you store it in ?
Again AWESOME job!
Devon&Rebecca Bergsma thanks! I live in south eastern Wisconsin. I do have the heated garage and the trailer does fit. However most of the time I just keep my glues and stuff in there and grab what I need and bring it with and then leave them in the customers heated area until I complete the job. I really struggled on whether or not to figure out a heat solution for this. Ultimately I needed the trailer too soon as I got rid of my old truck and needed a way to haul tools so I didn’t spend the time figuring that part out. Maybe in the next trailer!
Nice setup for sure. I don't recall what size the trailer was....? I have a 7'x16' coming in a week so I will be setting that up in the coming weeks. I like the electrical setup....Good ideas on that.
Russell Freer it’s a Bravo Scout 7x16 with 6 inches of extra height. I highly recommend the extra height if you are taller. I’m 6’ and having the extra 6” of head room inside is nice.
About how much plywood does it take to do a project like this. I am switching from a 7x16 to a 8.5x20. I was going to buy tool boxes but after seeing the drawer setups you're making I am going to go that route. Kind of wish I would have seen some of these Paulk inspired trailers before I bought this 20' trailer. But I also do it all and need to haul it all.
waldnernick1 hey thanks for the sub! I forget the exact amount but there is a variety of 1/4, 1/2, and 3/4. I also purchased a little extra so I could build some benches as well. I believe my total bill for AC plywood was about $1100.
Nicely done! But wouldn‘t you want to have a fusebox with an RCD at the electrical connection to an unknown outside source with all the stuff you have on your net? The trailer counts as beeing outdoors as far as electrical hazards go.
Bernd Heiden I’m usually hooked up to an exterior outlet or garage outlet. Both are 95% of the time GFI protected. Basically I looked at the build as there was little difference between unloading all my chargers and plugging them in on site or running a long extension cord to the trailer. Same goes for the compressor. No different than plugging it in on site. I just hate lugging it around so I’d rather roll up air hose at the end of the day.
Nice job. Was that BC ply?
Papa1213 The plywood was a variety of AC 3/4, 1/2, and 1/4.
Молодец!!!
Any problems with the drawers sliding open?
Ohio Outdoors a few of them slide open here and there. Really depends on how bad the roads are that we’re traveling. I did post a video on my channel about the drawers opening if you feel like checking it out.
FF Barry will do Brotha. Here in Ohio we have potholes every square inch lmao.
Same here. This year has been terrible because our winter has been so hot and cold. We had temp swings from -50 to +50 in the same week. So I hear you on that one.
You need some Festool’s to go with your wonderful trailer.
Homer Corley they’re on my wishlist! Hoping to get into a track saw in the very near future.
Good for you. You won’t be disappointed. I’ve been remodeling homes for about 34 years now, and started using Festool close to 3 years ago. I’m telling you, it’s made me able to do things I would never try before in my work.
I’m looking forward to the track saw. I think after that I might try out a new plunge router. That has been the only tool that ever fell out of one of the cubbies and I’m pretty sure the trailer hit a bump so hard it was off the ground... but it broke my existing plunge router so I’m hoping to replace with a festool.
Great!

I'm looking at doing something very similar. This is based off the Paulk version right? How much plywood was in this? Were the plans worth it?
streetfiremkv12 tricky question. I bought the plans. Made a lot of modifications along the way. But the plans do help with the amount of time you want to spend figuring it all out. My trailer was a little bigger and I added a few different things but having the plans for the main concept was worth it in my opinion.
Great build. I didn’t go with a Ron Paulk style, still love the layout though check out my tool trailer tour
Adam’s Garage I will. I’m getting ready to build a new trailer. So I’ve got a lot of ideas for the new setup
I look forward to seeing more videos from ya.
You need to think like a ultralight backpacker..your carrying a lot of extra weight, that's wear and tear on your truck and extra fuel. You don't need all those levels or all those hammers. Carry everything you need but leave the extras at home.
Russ Cherry so I worked like that for a while. But if you forget about one tool the run back home can make or break a job. Most of the time this trailer lands on a job for a few weeks at a time. I would rather have everything woodworking related in one place so I can tackle any task at hand. This is just the way that works for me. The truck and trailer are both way overbuilt for what I haul around. And as stated before the truck goes to and from the job one time loaded. For the 3-4 weeks in between I run the truck completely empty to and from.
FF Barry - I couldn’t agree more. My old trailer was totaled by another driver who rear ended me-no insurance of course. So I bought a new trailer and have been itching to outfit it similar to Ron’s Awesome rolling toolbox. My old trailer had every possibly tool. So for the past 6 months I’ve been working out of my truck; loading and unloading tools for jobs and would constantly run back home to grab something. Who knew you needed the tools to repair a tool you were using? Oh-because it would have been in the trailer-all that extra weight! Or I would run to one of the box stores to buy yet another caulking gun, when my old trailer had like 4. Btw, how long did it take you to build-out? I’ve been way too busy with jobs.
Saridel Hel sorry to hear about that accident! That’s never good! The build out took me probably 150 hours on my own. I set up a bunch of time lapses but lost the footage unfortunately. But this has saved me a ton of return trips on jobs being able to have any tool at any given time.
@@TheRealBeardedBuilder There is nothing more aggravating than having to leave the job because you left something at home.
dpeagles I agree. I’ve done some remodeling in this trailer. But I’m really debating on getting a little larger trailer as the collection of tools has really grown. The scale of the jobs we’re tackling today are much larger than the ones I was tackling in 2018.
what size trailer is that
Victor Diaz 7’x16’ with 6” of extra height. Making the interior 6’6”. It also has a 24” v-nose making the total interior closer to 18’
Nice trailer, give it a year or two and there wont be one cubic inch of space available in there.
Max Powers already beyond full. I’ve remodeled it a little here and there for certain things. Looking to purchase an 8.5x20 soon.
@@TheRealBeardedBuilder I hear you, I'm on my 4th one now, each one bigger than the last.
Max Powers how big is your current rig?
@@TheRealBeardedBuilder 36 foot gooseneck with 7'6" ceiling, its the first one i bought new and ordered the way I wanted it.
Max Powers that sounds like quite the rig. I’d love to see it. I would have a hard time navigating much more than an 8.5x20 in some of the lake neighborhoods we work in. A lot of times my 16 footer has to be disconnected from the truck and parked side by side.
