New Trailer


Just upgraded from a 6x12 to a 7x16. Looking for any ideas (pics) to help me with this. I know I need a desk / counter at the front. Kinda have a lotta stuff. I can load it with shelving and brackets, just curious to see if any one has reinvented a "better" wheel.
Thanks

Re: New Trailer


Introduction, where are you from, and use the damn search button.

On a positive note, how much was not involved.

Re: New Trailer


Nice layout and organization in your trailer!!

One question - does it still look like that today? (just kidding!)

Oh, nice "helper" - had one until old age did her in a couple of years ago

Cheers,

Re: New Trailer


Aint that the truth. I'm always working on a better trailer setup.

And put a microwave in there. I think that having a means to have a hot lunch on the site and not roll up and go get one is one of the smarter things I've done in my life.

Re: New Trailer


That's what I have. I think we went to Target. I got a cheap one figuring it wouldn't last. 4 years later all that's broken is the turntable...
