Direction needed on a trailer

[sandfarmer]

Oh I see, individually crafted. It shows too, man they look great!

They are built like a bank vault 10 times better than the Carson...

I purchased a dump bed from him when he was in Indy this year.Was going to use it as a pup trailer.They are built solid for sure.You need to tell him what scale you want.I didnt think about it then,but when I put it on a chassis I saw that it was more like 1/16 scale for wedico.When I talked to him he said he could build them in different lengths and styles and with rounded bulkheads.I'll snap a couple of pics and post the bed I got.

Quite obvious those are built by a craftsman, the attention to detail is awesome, looks just like the 1:1....which is kinda the point I guess! Have you made the pup out of it yet or is the scale going to prevent that?

I have 3 choices.1 widen it 2 buy a wedico 3 sell it.I'm using it as a load on my flatbed for now untill I decide what direction to go.

Get some Wedico axles and a Bruder MACK cab and it will make a nice little dump truck.

Fred mine is the 1/16 scale and it fits great not to narrow.. Little wider than the wheels. Is he doing 1/14 scale last i talked to him he did not want to get into building 2 sizes..

The dump bed is 6 5/8 wide.When I talked to him he said he could make it in different sizes.I forgot what he said the maximum length was.He could make it a flat side or with the ribs,a square or rounded bulkhead with or with out top boards.

Would love to have one of them behind my Wedico. Very nice guys.

I knew he said since there was interest in it now that he was going to play around with it but i did not know he was going to play that much.. I think the longest is 14 ribs..

so double the length of the one on your flat bed frame?

where do you get in touch with this guy? very nice work imo, he needs a vendors section!

[dabears]

I agree he needs to get on here and set up a vendors section with a lot of options that we can pick from that would be cool. I think the majority of us would love to own a dump trailer, hyd or screw drive.

How are his ran? of is it just the box and you go from there?

Half the links on PMD site are broke, I get very little in the way of timely responses to questions I ask, and I have heard folks that are really upset with lowboys from PMD site after paying 2500.00 to 3000.00 for a product. Picked up some accessories from them and the precision is pretty lackluster and inconsistent.

[sandfarmer]

I noticed all the broken links last night. I saw a comment something like "he doesn't sell the one on the site anymore" about a trailer. So I guess he doesn't keep the page updated or take it seriously anymore or what?

[bigford]
