    Who here can weld like a boss? I am beginning to toggle the idea of building a Teardrop trailer, problem is I am a carpenter, not a fabricator. I am looking to have someone build a 5' x 8' trailer frame out of 2" x 2" square tubing. Anyone able to help a brother out? I will pay and provide working beer!

    I might know a guy. Let me message him and see.

    Are you wanting it welded at your place or someone else’s?

    It's amazing how much cleaner your welds are than your chaulking.
