    I like my black gate 🤣🤣. I’ve driven it to San Diego and back with my dyna at least ten times and it’s still holding up. It does need new tires. I must say that you are a perfectionist!

    That thing looks great! My experience with the cheap Chinese incandescent trailer lights about ten years ago to five years ago is that they rattle themselves apart if you use your trailer often. You might want to invest in some cheap Chinese LED trailer lights before bringing out the soldering iron. Good choice on the 3/4" ply instead of 5/8" 👍🏻

    • @KrakensGarageandAdventures
      @KrakensGarageandAdventures  4 місяці тому

    That's not a bad price you ended up with everything you got going on there. Like the stained wood gives it a nice look with the aluminum . You also should just got ahead and change the rear tail lights to LED just to match the rest of the lights.

    Nice look at the Westbrook trailer. If I had space to store it I would probably buy one. Well, the assembly part doesn't excite me.
    I've been bumming trucks and hauls from friends for years. It is time for me to trailer my own stuff. At least that's my thinking. I've looked at those single rail trailers that fold up for easy storage. Pretty salty prices though.
    Always good to see your videos. Thanks for the trailer inspiration!
