Newbie trailer build.

Good afternoon,
I am new to RC tanks and semi trucks and trailers. I have read a lot of online about people using Bruder trailers as tank haulers. So I went to Bruder.com and ordered a new low loader trailer for under 23.00. As you can see from the picture my tank on the trailer looks a little weird.

I bought another trailer and decided to make it a 4 axle trailer. The trailer bed is now 24 inches long and I think just a bit long. My future intentions is to use epoxy to join the pieces, use aluminum stock to reinforce the bottom.

Long term goals:
Add wood to the deck and make it a little wider,
Use aluminum to make it wider on sides
Paint it black
Make the ramps fold in half
Use a nonskid paint on ramps

Maybe put lights.

Thanks for looking,
Larry

I just bought some Bruder construction equipment, very detailed and nice size. The price is great. Yes I just learned how to post photos also. Yay!!

Good morning,
I am at a stopping point on my trailer. My wife bought me a Grand hauler as an early birthday present and I do not want to attach the goose neck until I know the right hieght.

I have seen a lot of cool Grand haulers and decided to go black to match the trailer and eventually give it a third drive axle.
