    This is another one of my trailers. It was an old stock trailer, converted into a steel tub. A while back I posted a thread titled "Lessons Learned, One of Many" about how I transformed a stock trailer into a steel hauler. It was a disaster. If you want a good laugh and want to learn what not to do, search for it. As was said back then, breaking down on the highway was some of the best advertising a person could ask for. Yes, many thought I was an idiot, but more respected me for my creativity, resourcefulness, and persistence.

    Anyway this trailer is the result of the lesson learned on the first attempt. It has a reinforced gooseneck, three inch angle iron supports on top, reinforced sides, and the wooden floor was replaced with pressed steel. It has a back gate that opens that allows me to load my skid steer.
