Re: 53' custom box trailer build

I'm a little slow with getting the lift gate operational so I'm working on the appearance until I can fork out a couple hundred $$ for the hydro and lifting mechanism's.

Re: 53' custom box trailer build

I've been working on the lift-gate. I added five lights and hooks with chain.

Re: 53' custom box trailer build

Kind of looks like a party bus or discotek now. The blue doesn't photograph very well with my phone.

Re: 53' custom box trailer build

I'm trying to work on things other than the lift gate until I can get some hydro cylinders, so at this juncture in the build I'm trying to get the interior all dressed up. Once I finish the cabinets...

Re: 53' custom box trailer build

A little update of what I've been up to. I cut out the tool/equipment/lounging bay rear door frame then cut out a ceiling and drilled holes for some interior lighting. I finished up getting the floor...

Re: Please Help I can't find 'em

Yea I have thought about using a file but never thought about using a steel pattern or a needle file. I really like that idea. It's definitely worth testing to see if I can achieve the desired result.

Re: Please Help I can't find 'em

I'm going to post as much as I can of the progress. I started wiring up round amber LEDs assuming I will be making lenses one way or another.

Re: 53' custom box trailer build

Ugh, I've been using photo bucket for at least 15 years and now they want my money. I'm going to check out imageshack as I've never used it before.

Re: Camp Frizzen

I'm definitely going to try to get up there. I love building RC scale stuff from wood I gave laying around. The only thing stopping me at the moment is the logistics and my better half lol. My head...

Re: Please Help I can't find 'em

Thanks for the help, hostile. I had an assumption that would be the answer I was going to receive about the scania lights. I do however have 100 rectangle LEDs which I was going to use 2 side-by-side...

Please Help I can't find 'em

I've been scouring the the Internet and can't find rectangular trailer marker lenses and light buckets. I know there are kits with 4 prewired rectangular lenses and that isn't what I'm looking for. I...

Re: 53' custom box trailer build

I started drawing a concept of the lifting mechanism via dual screw drives.

Here is the rough sketch of the screw drive system I'm envisioning. As always some input from anyone is always...

Re: 53' custom box trailer build

Got the axles in place. They are a little off center looking at the picture.

Re: 53' custom box trailer build

Not the cleanest looking chassis but its the best I can do with only screws and nuts. Still way more to go.

Re: Camp Frizzen

That's a pretty nice camp site. I made a 1/10 cabin a few years ago and it has been out in the florida weather this whole time and it's still standing. Reason why I brought that up is because I would...

Re: 53' custom box trailer build

A lot of R&D for sure. It'll take some time and I'll eventually get it operating. I have decided to go with hydraulics so that is going to take a little longer to acquire a full hydro setup.

That would've been great to have some better pictures.

I thought it moved with a single unit up and down. Using hydro's would be the way to go but I was trying to keep it simple and on the less...

Re: 53' custom box trailer build

If the gate wasn't operational, I probably wouldn't put so much effort into making a lift gate. It would've been so much easier to just build a regular drive-in hauler. Although it will need to have...

Re: 53' custom box trailer build

Thanks! Thats what I'm going for. It started out as just a regular box trailer but as the project went forward it has morphed into a complex auto hauler.
