Default RE: Step by Step Trailer Build

More progress on my trailer. A trip to the hardware for more wood to frame the sides with. Once the frame (1x2" pine) is completed then the 1/4" luan plywood will be atatched and then the top will be fabricated. All the wood is being glued together using Tightbond 2. I decided to use Tightbond instead of the Gorrila glue. Much less expensive and I do not have to continualy wipe the excess glue away. The polyurethane glues such as Gorrila glue expand and foam a bunch.

The lower box portion of the trailer should be completed by the weekend and then next week on to the top. I have a camp over for the youth at church this weekend so my schedule may take a major detour.

Total cost of wood from hardware $ 48.23. This includes a new carbide tiped blade for my miter saw.

Total cost of construction to date $ 358.02
