I have this idea to build a trailer to pull with my bike - for small local shopping and such. Already have two mountain bike wheels - they were free from the landfill. No for the frame, I see two ways to build it (I don't feel like making it wooden):
- weld it from square tubing say 1/2x1/2"; the standard, just like my big trailer, onluy scaled down and light
- use 1/2" steel conduit and tubing bender, bent pieces welded together. I dont know if there are any issues with welding conduit except the galvanization.
Any other idea? I considered plastic conduit, since it is used for soccer goals and such, but I dont trust it too much.
The trailer should carry 100 - 200 pounds, depends on situation and distance.
Thanks for any ideas
