A guy I've known for 20 plus years used to have his own welding truck, even had a DC stick welder on a medium sized riding mower and using the gasoline motor to drive the tractor as well as his welder.

Needless to say he got a LOT of house calls for items that could not be moved or had limited access.

Also, he has MS and is confined to an electric driven mobile unit. He has several of them, all for different uses.

He had to retire his truck long ago because of the MS but his welding has not suffered at all - witness his handy work in the attached pictures. A total aluminum trailer custom made for my trike.

Of course the axle and hitch are steel but -

Great looking trailer Dick. Soooooo, where you going to show up first with the trailer and trike?

Probably not do too much til we get back from vacation but I do want to do some weekend excursions

Very nice trailer you have there Dick. I like that the front will give your bike protection.

What size is it?

Larry

6' x 10' inside and the axle is dropped enough that you can hardly notice the grade going up the ramp.

total weight 800lbs

had to buy a 5 1/2" drop receiver so the trailer would sit level

That is one very fine trailer.

Would that be safe? I hear you have problems with simple kitchen utensils. :stickpoke:
