no ladder on the passenger side!! mac trailers wants you to get clipped by a car
getting down from the trailer!!!!

Re: Flat bottom half round trailer
 

Good thing this is an RCP trailer not a MAC. I'm looking out for your 1/14th scale self so I put them on both sides:rolleyes:. Do you want me to take it off and try to weld up the holes in the fender? That should be fun...

I like your tarps but when did become mandatory ? Mike

Re: Flat bottom half round trailer
 

They didn't Mike.lol I would prefer not to make them honestly but if I'm asked I will do it... for a fee of course:rolleyes:.

Re: Flat bottom half round trailer
 

Transport Canada said no more driving without tarp on :p

Re: Flat bottom half round trailer
 

Haha, that is true!

Re: Flat bottom half round trailer
 

$1000.00 fine here in NY for a no tarp fine to the driver.
looking great reg!!

Re: Flat bottom half round trailer
 

That trailer is looking awesome Reg

Re: Flat bottom half round trailer
 

WOW! that's a big tub! You still using 12tpi acme thread for these trls too Reg?

It truly impresses me the level of ambition you have to crank these builds out as quick as do Reg... I'm so lazy! :D :p

Re: Flat bottom half round trailer
 

Ouch! Does that mean it's a $71.43 fine for this one?:rolleyes:

Thank you sir! I think so too!

Yes it will hold a lot of volume Joe. It's around 30" long inside and with the flat bottom it is definitely more chunky than a normal half round. I wouldn't be surprised to see a 5 gallon pail of dirt nearly fit in this heaped. Having said that I will be very disappointed if I see that kind of load in it unless it's light material. They just aren't meant to move that kind of weight. No ACME thread on these trailers. The motors I am using work better with a normal pitch thread and I have also gone up to a larger diameter for added strength. I have days where I struggle to work on certain things that's for sure but I am trying to make an honest go at this as a job so things have to keep moving along. For the most part it is pretty cool building toys for a paycheck. I also enjoy the look on other peoples faces when I tell them what I do besides fishing. "you build...toys?... WHAT?"lol

Re: Flat bottom half round trailer
 

wow your roads are tough on a rig!!! she dumps real smooth

Re: Flat bottom half round trailer
 

Awesome job Reg :cool: Going have to make sure the ground is leveled when raising that long tub or else....tiiimber! :D

Re: Flat bottom half round trailer
 

Enough power, that's for sure!

Re: Flat bottom half round trailer
 

Thanks guys. I had it out today doing another test after some suspension mods. I found out yesterday that there were some interference issues between the airbag mounts and the lift mechanism when the trailer is loaded heavy during dumping. I made a few small changes and she is good to go.

Well, here it is Mark! You asked for "battleship grey" and this was what you got. Close I hope? I didn't have much to choose from so that made my life easier. I wasn't sure what I thought of it at first because it was different but now that it's assembled I like it!:D

Re: Flat bottom half round trailer
