Re: JET 53' Drop Deck/Spread Axle/Beavertail Trailer.
Must say, "That is one sweeeet trailer!!" Went to McMaster-Carr, no 1.5mm screws or bolts. 1.4mm or 1.6mm are offered. Am I looking for the wrong thing?? Would like to get some as they are closer to scale for some things.

Thanks Much guys for all the great comments all the comments just prove the great bunch of guys and gals we have over on this board. Nate Ill get you some measurements on the rails and Lynn I have to correct my self I am using 2.0mm sorry I thought I was using 1.5.. Ok on with the picks. I got the decking done on the front of the trailer and I installed the plate and the hitch pin. Then I got the plates cut and drilled and taped that the leaf spring packs bolt too. And installed the axles too. The spread on the axles is a standard 10foot 2inch spread. And the finish pick of the wheels mounted and it is now a roller now it is time for the brass edging and the wood deck then the ramps and paint.. Let me know what ya'll think.

Thanks for all the great Comments guys.. I have not had a lot of time to work on it till this weekend. Well here are some updates I am trying to get it into paint this weekend but I am running out of time for sure.. I got all the brass edging done and also got the oak plywood down. Then I tackled the ramps. I made them out of derlin as they will get marked up by loading and un loading so this will help keep them scratch free sort of.. Also added the extension to the deck that the ramps mount too and mounted the ramps. Then I started on the cleats that go on the ramps and the beaver tail. Closed up. And one side all done.. So hopefully finished picks without paint today..
