Fantastic! Want to help me build a simple tire trailer? ;)
Wow! It looks great!
Nice job!!!
::Good::Very nicely done!
I've really enjoyed following along with this thread...
Impressed from the beginning, the final result is very very cool and appears high quality. now find an artist to put some pinstripes or mural or someing on all that white space. Picture challenge, you getting in it, and you inside it.
Got any interior shots? It needs shag carpet and mirrors on the ceiling.
Here's your mural for the back end...

It needs a mural. But I have an definate Idea on what it needs to be. The trailers name is "The Dog House". My wife came out in the garage one night while I was building it and said, "It's nice you are builidng your own dog house for when you piss me off." The name stuck and now I need to come up with a graphic to be made into decals.
Another step forward today. Had it inspected by the Vehicle Anti-Theft Task Force and signed off on. Then when down and had a VIN assigned to it. Now I just need to Stamp the VIN into the frame and go back to the local county office and submit the paperwork for a title and registration.
Amazing job. Well done! Many men would kill for your carpentry skills!
Show us a more detailed picture of your hitch/coupler.
The trailer looks excellent. Congrats and good job.
Thank you all.
I thought I had posted the hitch picture long ago but apparently not.

Bump from the dead to see what changes you've made since late 2011...
Wow it has been a while since I updated this thread.

I have been using the trailer and not working on it a lot. I did get the air conditioner installed and built out the rear cabinets.

And Just this last weekend I built a fold down table for the back and started making the cabinet doors. All the wood tone trim and the table are made from heart wood redwood I had left over from having my fence replaced. I will finish these in a natural spar varnish and I am thinking I will paint everything else a dark tone. Probably charcoal or chocolate.

That will take care of the back and I can start work on the interior cabinets and shelves.
