Or apply the sealant to the bottom of the boards as well

Kelly wasn't mad she was just disappointed. LOL. Good news is you can paint the rest of the driveway and just say you resurfaced it.

Say what you want about eTrailer. No matter what I ordered, they never shipped me anything that disappointed me. So far, from them, I've gotten two trailer hitches, two light controllers, one receiver-mount cargo rack. All top quality and great customer service!

I'm still trying to wrap my mind around using used motor oil for the deck. Sure does eliminate using the trailer for hauling anything like furniture. Should have coated all sides of that wood before bolting down. The bare wood on sides and bottom will absorb water and finally rot. Most of us don't have a sawmill worth ten or more times what the trailer would brand new. Nice mill! Love the idea of using the bed-liner for paint. Better than powdercoating

The oil is an old school thing, works very well and you have to do something with burnt oil anyway.

Buy treated lumber. That way the wood lasts you 5 years plus no matter if you only put oil on the top part. I use rustoleom paint to help keep rusting to a minimum.

milling ur own lumber... damn! that's cool AF!

Adding my 2 sense worth, I would replace the toe boards. On the front and back with 1/4 inch x 2" strap. It will be a lot tougher and probably outlast the trailer. Also it would have a slimmer profile.

That was a real welder right there he had the blue pearl snap on I would trust him

Muy bonito le quedó,que bueno que lo recuperaron y le dieron una nueva oportunidad,ese carretón les será muy útil ❤

Love the concrete and tires great primer job

Might just be your best video ever... Decent background audio... Great photography... All was terrific except the video was missing Kelly.

Better the overspray gets on the driveway than the house or car (don't ask). I see a lot of people use a skinny board in the middle of trailer decks, but if you have the lumber, better to saw 2-3 of the other boards slightly narrower so a wide board can fit in the middle. Those skinny boards are always the first to break or rot out.

fine looking trailer

You do really good work! Congratulations!

Nice grey driveway Troy. lol. Don't worry, you do just like me. I always forget about those things. Keep the good work.

It sure turned out nice. Everyone buying online anymore. I remember there used to be a store here in Mesa, near 'downtown', that used to sell all sorts of trailer parts and supplies. I went there once to get a trailer hitch lock, so no one can hitch to your trailer and steal it while your back is turned.

Explain to Kelly that this is an opportunity for her to learn how to use a pressure washer and then run quickly away. Lol. Trailer looks great by the way.

Cool video. Cool project. An easy watch. Well done.

Good job! Looks great 👍

Very nice job on the trailer.

Nonetheless, nice job on painting the concrete. Real talent and skills right there let me tell ya.

You left me speechless!

Nice job. I have a trailer needing some overhauling and a hickory tree that needs to come down…hmmm. Darlington, SC

My driveway is metallic blue, just like my Chevy II.

I mix my motor oil with diesel 50/50 , it seems to penetrate the wood better and not too dark. I call it my HWP ( Hillbilly wood preservative)

@ifitsnotbrokenfixit1193

2 жыл бұрын

I use something similar. Its 25% oil and 75% diesel. I call it snake-oil and i use new oil. I'm not a fan of the dark look. And i do all sides of the hard maple even the ends.

I'd of carriage bolted the end of the deck boards one run up and stitch welded angle iron over the tail end.

The only thing i would have done differently is paint underneath and in the wheel wells, otherwise great job

Well, a ten-minute video... haha. Here I somehow thought it this would be some kind of fantastical rebuild speed run. Not sure how I thought that'd be possible. Ha. Nice video. I need to rebuild parts of my trailer after both exposure and an apparent accident.

sweet job

Don't worry about the gray driveway....My hair is gray and I like it!

LOL At the overspray on the driveway. My wife tells people I am a great painter, every thing within reach is the same colour or at least has some splatter. Great coverage is my game.

You need an extra wheel hub stored in that box (greased real well and covered), always hated when a bearing went out and the hub was frozen, needed too be replaced along side the road..

Did you take the tires off and paint the inside of the wheel wells? Nice looking paint job...

I used Rustoleum and a foam roller on my trailer. Less paint on the concrete and more paint on the trailer.

Good video

You do most things yourself, I try do the same. Pulled 300 ft 1in blk pipe out of well... By hand, the last 15 ft was as heavy as the first 298. My repair was better job than the wellman.

G'day from downunder Troy. Another great video mate keep up the good work. Did you spray the underside of the trailer? You could have lifted the hitch with your bucket (obviously chained together) and had plenty of room to spray underneath

@RedToolHouse

3 жыл бұрын

Yes. Any horizontal surfaces I sprayed underneath but there aren’t many as the orientation of the angle iron makes mostly verticals.

Could you please link me to that front box you used? I found those new ez latch couplers you used on new trailers....can't wait to fit my older trailer with one.

what was your bed liner mixture? I know it was Line X, and then paint thinner, but what was the bag of stuff at the end you put in?

I love your channel. The problem that I had with this video was, that by the time that I read the printed explanation at the bottom of the screen, the scene was over and I didn't get to watch the action. Could be that a voice-over might be more user-friendly to watch, rather than printed captions. IMO... Or maybe this old grandma from Ohio just missed hearing your voice and sense of humor!

Should of treated the wood before installation, would of done all 4 sides , and ends … looks really good now though 👍👍👍👍👍🇬🇧🇬🇧

Everything looks good except the used Rotela. I think that messed it up. White oak is naturally weather resistant. I'd have just left it alone or added something more natural. Other than those minor points and the over spray on Kelly's driveway everything looks good bud. Lol

@@johnjones4643 you are right about that

Why didn't you make the front and side rails higher to the height of 3 feet? With higher trailer sides, you can haul high profile stuff like furniture, bed mattresses and box springs, refrigerators, freezers, and other stuff securing them to the sides during travel. You had a welding machine, it wouldn't take you long to extend the rail height. That way, the trailer becomes a much more utilized trailer. Your trailer is very limited in carry design the way it stands.

I can do that easily with wooden rails and not have to alter the trailer frame. Having a utility trailer with tall side rails would be problematic for other uses.
