The Tackle Box - My Beginner Level Design

Postby drewstall » Wed May 19, 2010 6:04 pm

Here is a design I came up. I tried to make this the easiest it could possibly be. Even though there are already a ton of designs here, I figured I would see what everyone here thought of this one.

I should probably also mention that I can e-mail you the pdf's if you need some better image quality.

How about a bigger picture?

I was wondering why the water balloon was getting bigger... and then it hit me.

Looks like a good design to me. Throw some fenders on it, and you'll be good to go!

The picture actually isn't the design. Here is a link to the entire album that has all the technical drawings.

Sorry about that.

Andy,

You did a nice job on the plans... I have an 11 x 17 printer! :shock:

I like your disclaimer...

...call before you dig, objects in mirror are closer than they appear, etc..

Thanks. My goal was to make designs that were better than the ones I had begun using from a company that makes large wooden teardrops.

CAD Files

Postby ashkanr » Tue Jun 15, 2010 8:24 am

Here in Ontario, It is really hard to get the exact same trailer you have used for the designs. I was wondering if you could post the CAD files so that I can try to modify them to the size of available trailers over here.

Thanks!
