Well here it is so far. I say it that way because it will never truly be done.
So now for the pics and a tour
Recap
14'x7'x7 tandem axle thunder series
Seamless with alum wheels
Alum frame
1800# empty
Image


Now let's go inside
Raised sub floor holds sheet goods and extension poles used in dust containment.
Image

Second sub floor runs parallel to the v nose and holds my dust 2ml poly and some wrecking tools and pole sanders
Image


This little cubby behind the tools is a pain to get to at time but is a safe place to hide a few extra bead or othe 8' material.
It's usually blocked by either my large lgr DH or the rigid table saw.

The tool shelf is 8' long and slopes to allow me to lean 4x8 sheats.
Yes there are tie down hooks on the ends
Above the tools is a shelf with plastic jars for fasteners
Image


Other side two husky tool cabinets creat a bench. The bench top also has tie down hooks. Caulking guns and levels are mounted above the bench.
also another shelf for fasteners.
Small rigid table saw is in between the tool chests

I know it's a bad pic but.
Up in the v nose I keep 3 totes 1 for drop sheets, 1 for drywall taping tools, and 1 for painting tools. Theses are loaded in this maner because I will often use just take the tote I need that day and leave the trailer home.
Also on the left is some three steps I can use as horses when needed
Image

Near the front is my Adrian boxes
These have. In the left my drywall gun, sds hammer, jig saw, m12 cordless.
In the right dremel multi, respirator, and ast. screw trays

bear in mind, i'm a ditch digger and don't know the structural aspects. i love the storage you've set up underneath the floor. i ran 8.5' x 20' trailers.

would been nice to have "hid" things underneath like you have. but we also carried fairly heavy generators, pumps, etc. underneath. plus the foot traffic. did your floor get spongy with foot traffic on top of it like that?
