Hi Kermit,

Thanks!

I've been working on the trailer now for a couple years but it is going slowly as our youngest has two children and we are helping her, and the boys.
Money, and especially time, has been short.

I completed the frame, and then built a mock up with 1x2's and rigid foam. It worked perfectly!
My calculations and drawings proved to be workable. It was pretty neat to stand inside the trailer, not hit my head, and be able to get it under the garage door! :thumbsup:

I hope to be able to finish it soon.

Rob

Hey folks,
I started a garageable trailer because of HOA,s Its a 1960,s replica serro scotty. No plans make it a challenge. Frame,axle,floor and sides are built and up. Working on interior now. Its 6'6" tall and a lot of fun.
Sold my teardrop to fund the build. So Im getting what I need till teardrop money runs out. ( we miss the teardrop already )

Well folks, just trying to ressurect a stagnant post. Before I began my build last winter, I found a pic of Trailerworks standy that helped inspire me to do my build. My build is not even close to theirs, but, I made it my way & it works well for us.

And no matter what happens, I guess the best one can hope for is to still be an inspiration to others even after we are gone (or in this case absent? As nobody seems to know what happened to Trailerworks).

Great job I was actually looking at this thread the other day would love to see some interior pictures of what you have done
