I got the hitch from chuckster put on and the lights connected and finally finished the trailer so I guess I am ready to go.Attached is a picture of the finished product.

recumbentbob · 05-02-2011, 02:37 PM

Looks very nice.

What's it weigh??

cactusjack · 05-02-2011, 02:45 PM

That is nice looking! Looks sorta like a hot tub.

What's that going to do for your gas mileage?

rickyboy · 05-02-2011, 02:53 PM

I was going to say it looked great {and it does btw} BUT! if you didn't want to pull it any more, it could, like Scott says, always become a hot tub or maybe a large planter box in your frt. yard.

How much beer can you pack into that thing?

cactusjack · 05-02-2011, 03:45 PM

What kind(s) of wood did you use? Reminds me of those classic wooden Chris Craft boats you see now and then. Real sharp.

Sweet

blowndodge · 05-02-2011, 03:57 PM

hmmmmmmmmmmmm beerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!

nomadrider · 05-02-2011, 04:30 PM

Not sure what it weighs but when I was wiring the lights I lifted it by the tongue and stood it up on its end to work under it with no problem.I tried the keep the wood light using 1/4 inch plywod and building a frame to support it .Some fir plywood and solid fir to make the frame with a 1/2 inch treated floor on the frame .The top is a frame covered in 1/4 inch plywood so not as heavy as it might look.Havent pulled it yet so we'll see how it works out I like the idea of a giant beer cooler Hmmmmmmmmmm

Nice, like it.

nomadrider · 05-02-2011, 04:41 PM

Needed room for the golf clubs.Maybe could of been smaller.

blowndodge · 05-02-2011, 04:59 PM

smaller = less beer

recumbentbob,

Your sig pic, is that a beaded seat cushion on your drivers seat? If so, how do you like it and where did you get it?
