    The plug and junction box is cheap. It’s the 7 wire in loom that’s expensive at 20 ft long. I have a broken wire somewhere I can’t find so just want to replace it all and wire in new lights and markers etc.

    My brand new flatbed trailer has wire taps all over it so I imagine I’ll be doing the same in a few years once those start failing. I was pretty surprised to see that.

    Better than the wire nuts on mine. Mine was bare bones with axle brakes and tail lights. I’d like to add marker lights and a backs up light etc.

    Superbrightleds.com has a slew of good options if you haven’t heard of them before.

    At least your in a dry climate!:thumbsup:

    Here it is a every spring thing to do if your trailer sits all winter. Get the lights and get the electric brakes working.

    Unless your trailer in a nice garage with a concrete floor

    With all the positive feedback on the table I made a couple of weeks ago, I figured I'd start a second one -

    And for those that missed it, here's the first one *almost* complete -

    I am curious just where did you get the idea for that design?

    I have never seen a table like that before West coast thing?

    You want to send that via Paypal or Venmo?

    It was a school project, extra credit sort of thing for my last module.

    I'm still in school and so I'm just taking advantage of the free steel I get to use here.

    Yet you still refuse to answer the question?? So the prints came from the school?

    I think the Mrs. is involved now for sure.

    Apologies! Literally in class right now.

    Modeling came from school; this was one of our Pro Dev projects, along with our Rocket Stove where we used draft sight to make blueprints.

    Page 1, assembly. Page 2, sub assemblies/parts/etc and Page 3, welding symbols.

    If you'd like measurements or a parts list, I'd be happy to send them to you later.

    What's funny is, she was involved in encouraging me to make some more to sell. She thinks it's really cool but didn't request one for the house; we like to keep it pretty simple at home. Less is more!
