70's Wilison Cattle Trailer

[Tamiya Cowboy]

Well this is a trailer I have wanted to build for sometime but it has taking some coaxing from my oldest son to get going on it. It is a 70's style Wilison cattle trailer they were made out of wood and steal so this one we are going to build all out of wood as once it is painted you can not tell the difference for the most part. It is made out of Aspen and Poplar and Basswood NO balsa it is all rabbited and wood glued and air nailed together..

Here are some picks of a trailer that is in really bad shape but it is the only one I know of so we took all are numbers from it..

This trailer is a 44 footer in length same height as any other new cattle pot but the belly on these older trailers is higher than a newer trailer..

There is a fair amount left to do before I paint it we have not done any sanding yet but that will wait till all detail work is done..

Great workmanship Paul keep the pics coming. Cant have a wood trailer down here cause of the termites...lol.

[Exthood359]

Great work Paul,

Hey find out if the real trailer is for sale that would look good behind some of the units around me that are all in the 70's A model, cabover pete or KW.....if you know what I mean.

Wade

[ihbuilder]

[rc_farmer]

Paul, that looks really good. I didn't know what one looked like but it looks spot-on.

Thanks Much Steve..

Guys a big thanks goes to my son Tristin he is the master of the router table and did all the router work and he has done most of the work on the other side too..

[Tamiya Cowboy]

Paul, that looks really good. I didn't know what one looked like but it looks spot-on.

Hey thanks much Robbert..

[russisloud]

wow, thats some nice looking wood

[Espeefan]

Real sweet trailer, Paul. Something totally different. I like that. Now you just need a true '70 era KW or Pete to pull that thing.

[Tamiya Cowboy]

wow, thats some nice looking wood

Thanks Much Russ

Real sweet trailer, Paul. Something totally different. I like that. Now you just need a true '70 era KW or Pete to pull that thing.

Thanks Nate I have a late 70's rig to pull it with for now but I do have a 352 in the works..

[spudd]

wow wow wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! very impresive!!!!!!!!!!!

[gun]

Nice job Tristin and Paul ! Another great build from one of the masters of the trade. Can you post a pic of the tractor your going to use ?

[SWAGGER]

Oh man, this brings me back to my RC plane days. We used to scratch build with wood. Of course that was only balsa, so no comparison in quality and strength with your trailer, but we were building to be as light as possible. Anyway, point is, I really appreciate RC scale woodwork and really, really admire your work here. Well done and keep us posted.

[Snowman]

Looks great, wood is such a nice material to work with. This will make for a very interesting and original trailer! I'd be interested in seeing the old school tractor you have in mind for this too.

[Brian in PA]

Looks real good Paul! Its gonna be a shame to paint it.

[karak34]

great job

[CustomClod]

Looks great. Cant wait to see it finished!
Scott

Very nice wood work! I'm with Swagger brings back memories of scratch building airplanes! Thinking seriously about trying a trailer in wood.

Thanks Truck Maker.. We are now building another one for a member if there is enuff interest we might do a run of them and open a vendors spot let me know if you are interested send me a PM..

Thanks alot guys I did not think this would get that much attention.

[Dreamweaver]

Looks Sweet Paul. For some reason I never thought about wood for the trailer. I think if I can build RR trestles and buildings out of it I should be able to build trailers... Might have to give it a try.

After the trucks done of course... **** ocd:o

[SWAGGER]

Paul, you didn't think this would get much attention? I wonder if Da Vinci ever thought that about any of his priceless works of art? Hmmm.......

Yes Mike it works very well and with the right primers it looks like painted metal when finished..You will like the next trailer he will be starting on..:confused:

Paul, you didn't think this would get much attention? I wonder if Da Vinci ever thought that about any of his priceless works of art? Hmmm.......

Thanks much for the complement Steve but I am far from Da Vinci this is mostly my sons baby he deserves most of the credit..


Ok guys i got some more done the last 2 nights.. I had a stock pile of trailer axle shafts but no housings so this is what I came up with so I would not have to wait for them to get in..

I took 1/2 alum tube and pressed the bronze bushings in the tubes and them made derlin blocks that fit around the tubes to give you a flat spot to bolt the brackets on too..

http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g276/theonlytamiyacowboy/001-51.jpg

Also mounted the axles to the rear of the trailer..
http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g276/theonlytamiyacowboy/005-60.jpg

And I made the plate that the king pin mounts to with the ski on the front of it on the nose of the trailer.
http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g276/theonlytamiyacowboy/004-60.jpg

So that's were it is at right now..


And behind the Barn Burner..

Travis

LOL :D Thanks Much Travis.. Yeah we have plenty of tires in the shop but waiting on a wheel shipment..

[SWAGGER]

Those axles are class! Simple but effective and they are stronger and look better than the kit ones, not to mention, possibly cheaper to make than to buy the stock axles. You possibly have a product there my friend!

[Diesel Demond]

**** paul that looks real good behind that binder! I take it the east end dump was the doner wheels or you parked it in my cousins neihbor hood!! lol

[crawler07]

outstanding!!!It looks great on that rig...

[glorydays24]

WOW!!! Your wood working skill's are excellent. And the globe liner look's good pulling the wagon. You should be proud.:)

Big John

[Brian in PA]

Nice combo Paul!!

[1985 kenworth]

yes like a needlenose pete or early a model thin nose kw would compliment that trailer it looks oustanding never knew what one looked like before

[Dreamweaver]

Lookin good Paul, HOWEVER I do see one BIG problem... It needs shocks.. I just happen to have about 3 possibly 4 sets of rears made up... Oh crap I just remembered the carrier bearings.. Sorry.. I'll look for them this weekend..


Now how bout them shocks? And I can't remember, did ya need some brakes to?

[SWAGGER]

And some cows! Lol!

[hammer]

Paul,
Beautiful combo woodworking skills INSANE trailer is a work of art thanks for posting the pictures.

Tony

[Izzy]

I like it without paint - but I bet it will be fantastics with!

Izzy

[SonoranWraith]

This is impressive work and I like wood as the medium. Fantastic so far! :D

[SWAGGER]

What about a varnish or a stain? Just an idea, but it would show more of the wood and grain than paint.

[Tamiya Cowboy]

And some cows! Lol!

LOL :D

Paul,

Tony

Thanks Much Tony but all the skills are my sons he did most of the work and he did a great job.

Izzy

Thanks Chris and we will be painting them and once they are painted they would look like wood at all..

This is impressive work and I like wood as the medium. Fantastic so far! :D

Thanks Much Sonoran..

Nah Steve we are going to paint them want them to look as scale as I can I might weather mine to look old..:confused:

I got some more done today on mine Ill get some picks later tonight.

[chaseracer]

wonderful craftsmanship, it will look great painted and weathered

[mazdaparts]

I took a trip to Lee's Summit MO today and passed what looked to be an old wilson trailer sales lot or maybe a manufacturing building. It had Wilson Trailers on the sign and had a lot of older trailers (mostly van body) sitting out front. I was just off of I70, danged if I remember were though.

Just did a google search of Wilson Trailers and they have a sales lot on I70 in Columbia MO.

Thats pretty cool they make the livestock trailers down the road from me in Yankton SD and grain trailers are made in Lenox SD..

Ok got most of the detail done on the nose of the trailer. Ribs and tire rack and Porch Light.. The Porch Light is are family farm are brand "7L" has been registered for almost 100 years..

Thanks Much Enjoy

[Mrfish55]

Great job, I love working with wood, nice to see something diffErent, what colors do you have in mind?

[Tamiya Cowboy]

Great job, I love working with wood, nice to see something different, what colors do you have in mind?

Thanks Much Dave I have had this idea for sometime but my oldest son too the horse my the reigns and made it happen.. I am going to go with the Barn Red color with the whit roof and tail end like they painted most of them they also came in a light blue and white but not so poplar was that combo..


So I got a little time today and got most of the back finished on mine..

I made the rear light panel and bumper and also the roll up door..

Tristin has also been building one for a member on the board "GUN" here is his trailer.

http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g276/theonlytamiyacowboy/003-60.jpg
The sides come off for ease of wiring and painting..

Rear section
http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g276/theonlytamiyacowboy/005-62.jpg

If there is enuff interest this is the state we will be finishing them to, to sell all you will have to do is add a few detils if you choose and put running gear on it and paint it..

Now GUN asked us to finish his all the way we can do that too for extra we will see..

I guess if there is not enuff interest then these will be the only 2 we make..:confused:

Thanks For looking..

[mazdaparts]

How are you doing the roll up door? I learned a trick a while ago watching Norm Abrams build a roll top desk. He cut all the individual pieces and then glued them to a piece of canvas.

[sneaky-pete]

Paul,you have out done yourself!
That is some bad@ss wood work:eek:

[Espeefan]

These are sweet trailers. I bet you'll get enough interest to crank out at least a handful more. Not so different from the old stock cars that used to haul cattle on the railroads, back in the 60s and 70s. The construction is really close to that, and they used to use wood too.

Just looking at the shelves in the back ground, I have to ask - how many trucks do you own now? It looks like you have one for ever member on this forum!

[petermoblin]

Looking great Paul. Your an animal, is there anything you can't build:D

[Tamiya Cowboy]

Thanks Mazda.. I do it about the same way you seen on TV I cut the strips and use a square to hold them in line and then I use Heating duct foil tape to hold it like I did on my alum bull rack works great..

What a fantastic marriage of wood, plastic & RC, you have really turned out a winner there.
WELL DONE the young TC’s fabricators.
Tim

Thanks Much Tim your building is defiantly inspiration for my building..

Paul,you have out done yourself!
That is some bad@ss wood work:eek:

Thanks Much Troy.. But a lot of it has to go to my son Tristin he really worked hard on these..

Yeah Nate you are right they are very close in build and there has not been any interest but Gun witch I was surprised but who knows Tristin wants to make some extra money for collage. I have my self a little Rc addiction I am at 23 built trucks and about that many trailers too..

Looking great Paul. Your an animal, is there anything you can't build:D

Thanks Jessy and yes construction stuff I am not very good at :mad:

[gun]

Looking good Paul ! Can't wait to get my hands on one . The detail is top notch !!

[Tamiya Cowboy]

Thanks Much Shane we will get it to you asap.

[Diesel Demond]

MORE MORE MORE!!!

[Tamiya Cowboy]

I should have more this weekend both trailers are painted I just have to finsih them up..

[CAT29]

Great work they look fantastic can't wait to see some pics of them painted

[Diesel Demond]

NICE!!!!

[Tamiya Cowboy]

Well finally I have got some time to do a update om the trailers. I have gotten mine all nut done still painting on GUN's trailer but his is drying now so I can start putting it back together.

But let me back up a bit and so the finish work before we painted them..

I finished off both trailers roll up doors by making tracks that the doors can go all the way up on.

http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g276/theonlytamiyacowboy/002-58.jpg
http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g276/theonlytamiyacowboy/003-61.jpg
And here shows the door up in the track.
http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g276/theonlytamiyacowboy/004-63.jpg

Than i finished the porch lights for both trailers.
http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g276/theonlytamiyacowboy/001-54.jpg

Then after all the finish sanding and filling out to the shop for primer.. I used a primer we use for doing painted wood work for new houses it is called Seal Grip it is water based and can be sprayed and also sanded like auto body primer.. I sprayed both trailers at once.
http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g276/theonlytamiyacowboy/005-63.jpg
http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g276/theonlytamiyacowboy/006-54.jpg

http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g276/theonlytamiyacowboy/010-34.jpg

Now when I shot the red I taped off the rear end to keep the primer white but I spaced off the fact the roof was to be white to thats why they are this way.
http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g276/theonlytamiyacowboy/011-30.jpg
http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g276/theonlytamiyacowboy/012-27.jpg

And here are the finished picks as I forgot to take some of the brass work on the rear bumper. I used a set of my Easter egg bud wheels till my new wheels come in from Steve. I added Tc1cat's lights on the sides and the rear also I made the Wilson decals on the trailer and the grab bar on the rear I still have to get some heavy fishing line for rope to lift the gate.

[TRUCKMAKER]

Paul, Tristin did a really nice job on the trailers, hope he gets a lot of orders for them!

[Tamiya Cowboy]

Paul it almost seems a crime to paint them, to build them with different woods then varnish them, they would look real effective as well
Any ways WELL DONE Dad & kids incorporated
Tim

Thanks much Tim..

Paul, Tristin did a really nice job on the trailers, hope he gets a lot of orders for them!

Thanks Much Guys I am hoping with some age it will look even better I want that look of a new trailer look but like it has been sitting in a building since new so a little weathering to it...

Weathering is easy Paul.. Start with some Dull coat to take off the shine.

This thing looks awesome.. Great Job both of you. Now wondering about the next trailer that you teased me about..:rolleyes::rolleyes:

Oooooo Paul,

i see this cattle trailer for the first time and immediately i fall in love with it.

It looks so fantastic and so my second thought was i would like to have this cattle trailer too.

Is the cattle trailer going into production or would you build possibly still another additional for me?

Please send me a private message.

Martin.. Thanks for the great complement on the trailer. The plan is to set up a vendor spot and sell a few of them here soon..

That sounds very interesting. Can you say something about the costs at the moment (so that I can save my money :D)?

[Dairyland Trucker]

Tailer is surely spectacular just wondering as to how and order one, think it would look nice with some of my trucks?
