Re: Old style dump trailer
Oh my that trailer is badass! Don't know which trailer to go with now. Old style vs half round they both look killer!

Re: Old style dump trailer
Is customer going for a polished chrome like finish on the trailer ? Think it would be a shame to powdercoat this one

Re: Old style dump trailer
It was going to be powder coated but I think it will be painted now. I agree that this one would look good polished but for the look we want it needs to be painted in my opinion. These are complicated and require careful fitting of a lot of individual parts. The price tag for one of these is a fair bit larger than the half round.

Re: Old style dump trailer
Thanks Alex.
Well, I was up early this morning and put in a long work day but it's finally paying off. I was asked to put a tarp mechanism on this trailer so I said I would give it a shot. I had no real plans I just started getting at it. Luckily I had ordered two of these little gear motors months ago. I grabbed one off the wall and made up some stuff to get things moving. I won't be making the tarp itself but the mechanism seems to work well. Still a couple days worth of work in this one but I'm starting to like it a lot. I may want to keep it if I spend too much more time on it.lol https://youtu.be/h9f3VKkQu8Y Last edited by RCP57; 10-16-2015 at 11:10 PM. |

Re: Old style dump trailer
Thanks guys. This one has been a challenge but I think it's turning out well.
Mark, yes I think I can add a tarp to yours or at least the mechanism. I'm not into sewing though so I don't know if I will be adding the actual tarp material to any of these. After building this one yesterday I think the tarp mech is going to run in the $150US range. Reg |
