    Awesome build on the trailer... I wouldn't mind picking up a decent trailer to build something like this... Man I need to get into welding classes so bad... Awesome pics of your adventures as well..

    I'm thinking that I am just going to pick up a standard pop up trailer for my camping needs... maybe after I learn some fabrication and welding skills I'll be able to build something half as decent as this!!

    Thanks for the positive comments guys...

    A lot of time went into the sheet metal work on this build, it was just lucky I had access to a brake press, guilotine, hole punch machine, MIG & TIG welders as well as the materials required to build this.
    It was also lucky despite being a sparky I was actually used to using this equipment as part of my job, albeit from a dozen years ago....

    I am about to do some mods to it, I am going to mount a battery on it somewhere and I have just made up a trio of LED light bars to use with it which will get tested over Xmas....

    Yeah you can feel free to come over here and put some of that craftsmanship to work helping me rebuild the sides of a popup camper I found, that might need some work as the current owner said the metal sides are separating from the wood underneath.. going to try and go take a look at it to see what shape it looks like the wood is in.. and then go from there... but still very interested in seeing how your build goes... might make me want to demolish the trailer after I get it, and build a custom setup like how yours has gone..
