My little welding trailer

[PineRidge]

Brad great idea and I like the way you put it all together. I tend to agree with you on the load on that single axle though. Looks to me like the leaf springs are saying ouch already. Don't get hurt out there on the road or take the chance on losing all your valuable equipment to a mishap.

BGL 990 Looks great, Are you going to put some kind of finish on the wood, oil base stain, or paint? A canopy wold be good but the wood is still going to weather.

I'm not worried about the deck. It will be very rare to have it out in any sort of bad weather anyway. The canopy will be "just in case" - don't want the welders getting wet. I think the deck should last years even untreated while just sitting in the garage.

I'll try and post some pic's of my set up later today,
it anit much but serves me well.
I also built a small trailer for all sorts of odd jobs around my place.
I might add the trailer is retro looking, looks good with
my old Ford tractors /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif
Stay tuned.
I'm off to go buy some tires and rims for my 1953 Jubilee.

Brad, thanks for sharing the pictures. Looks like you are "loaded for bear" as we like to say. That's a lot of equipment on one trailer. A lot of great ideas there.

I've seen the 10,000 w generator, AC/DC stick and Tig all in one units advertised. Are these any good as compared to separate units?

I really like your concept, self contained, and portable, with everything you need....and then some.

I've never used one of the all-in-one units, but I can't imagine any reason they wouldn't be as good, or better, than the same pieces separated. Maybe a tad less versatile as far as just taking one smaller piece of equipment somewhere if needed, but that's probably a non-issue in most cases.
