I got this trailer months ago. I was way to busy to work on it. I finally got it to where I can work out of it. Its not done yet, Ive got some more work to do like adding pad racks and Axy/acc and a more permanent Propane hold down. And maybe a an anvil swingout. Oh and get the reverse lights working
Here is the trailer just after I got it. It had not been used for a while and needed a bit of work. The main problems were that the table was covered in iron dust that had rusted to the Aluminum table. It leaked worse than I could have imagined with the slightest touch of rain. The doors were going to kill or at the very least maim someone they only came to bridge of my nose level. Walked into them a few times working on the trailer.
I cleaned up the inside with my grinder and a flap disc, welded in some supports to bolt the shoe racks too, Added a divider wall of 065 aluminum, raised the doors to about 4-6 inches over my head (about 6’6) at the lowest point. I ran electrical throughout the rig. Added lights (complete with switch), welded up a forge swing out arm, fabricated an anvil tie down, and shoeingbox anchor. Installed 5, 5-peg shoe racks (thanks Amy) and installed a very nice stainless tool box inside (the aluminum truck box on the front was included, which is very handy), and of course my electrical reel. I also fabricated a slide out table for my band saw and jet belt grinder which I purchased from Stonewell along with the Drill press drawer and some sealing vinyl and awesomely strong caulking for sealing the exposed piano hinges. It took a little work and a lot of patients to get the leeks out. Now shes nice a dry. I msut thank Brent and Randy at stonewell for all the help they gave me over the phone, I’m very grateful. Heres how the trailer looks now.
