Both pieces are sweet! You are obviously a skilled person. Nice work.

bonomonster, try and find an aluminum boat trailer used. sometimes you can find them cheap. thay are light, bolt together and typically have the wheels set back farther than a landscape trailer, like a popup, and are built to haul things that are heavier than the trailer looks like it could handle

Great idea... Most up here in the Northeast are galvanized too. I think that would help tremendously with rust.

Thanks, it's coming along. What's the absolute necessary things to ad to the trailer ?

 

[MountainD]

I'd say water storage. And a bottle opener

 

[Gootjr]

Thanks, the water is is going in today and a bottle opener is a great idea !! What is a reasonable amount of water ?

It depends on how long you are camping, and how many bodies you are taking with you. I say bodies as I have two dogs and they typically go through about 1.5 gallons per day. For people and cookinig/clean up, we figure on 3-4 gallons per day. So, without showering, I typically take 5 gallons per 24 hour period for 2 people and 2 dogs. I have gone 3 days with 10 gallons, but we conserved a bit, so that is just rough guidelines that I follow. Since most of our trips are 2-4 days, I am set up with 15 gallons which is about 100lbs.
