Hi Miguel. Thanks for subscribing and I'm glad you're finding this helpful!
Awsome series! I’m picking up so many tips to use in my trailer build! Thank you!
Glad to help!
I’m so glad I found your channel. Love the focus on the trailer itself. Not knowing the first steps has prevented me from starting. 🤝
Welcome aboard Ken! So happy to hear it this has helped you get started. Our Welding video drops next week and that will get you most of the way there!
Thought on using aluminum tubing for trailer frame for teardrop camper
Yes. Aluminum is good if you don't want to fuss with finish. Overall weight advantage is nominal because more aluminum needs to be used to hit the same strength requirements of a steel frame. Always trade offs with all decisions.
You can use a reg mitre saw with a blade for steel. Doesn't have to be special
True. It's always wise to match the Blade RPM specs to the saw. Some mitre saws run too quickly.
How about using aluminum?
Plenty of people do it. Very much the same process but with thicker gauges or stronger shapes. Certainly a design choice.
@@OverlandTrailer Yep, using aluminum doesn't save on weight because thicker material has to be used to reach the same strength of steel. The main advantage is that aluminum does not rust.
