Heres one of my container trailers that I first built..Constantly used to seeing these on the NJTP on my way to work and figured I would make my own

Sweet container and trailer. I like the color combo too. Did you build the container yourself from box trailer parts or is it a kit or Bruder?

Thanks guys

The container is from the Tamiya Merc Box Rig sitting on shortened tamiya flatbed rails

That is a cool trailer/container set up you have. Once I know how, I want to build one. Any pointers would be appreciated.

Great work

Could it be built from scratch?

Where would I start?

Cheers

I guess the hardest part would be finiding a Merc box, Although a Bruder container would be just as good

I was looking in a hobby store today, and found Styrene sheets and angles and thought they would work to make some shipping containers?
