Hi Aaron, Thanks! The box is a scale 19', it was originally made for a pup trailer to go behind a 24' main trailer, but that got side lined for this project. I don't have the metal working equipment to do a nice metal bed and my styrene skills aren't the greatess but I used to build a lot of RC airplanes so I thought I'd give it a try. I have some 3/8" aluminum channel (plywood cap) that will fit nicely on the top edge so the loaders and excavators don't tear up the wood.
