PROJECT: The Trashy Trailer
The problem with taking only a cursory glance at the trailer for sale, is I missed a lot of what was wrong with it. When I said "I'll buy it" the guy said "Really?" That was a clue...

Nice job! Love the overkill, four decimal places? WOW. I love the sound of motorcycles, that means its summer, I’ll take that over minus anything, any time! For dump runs the trailer is fine, actually it’ll get used more than you think, as long as it’s safe, it’s all good. Thanks for making my weekend, turns out I’m not the only one who does crazy things! 😂
I must be one of the three folks who always watch your videos! The trailer shows well. Cheers, Paul

I have also purchased a turd a time or two and spent more time and money than it was worth to polish that turd. Your results look great. Much better than what you started with. These days, my standards bar is set to better than what I started with, and I'm ok with that! Happy trailering!

That starter trailer was indeed a turd; if that thing had been a dog I'd shave it's ass and make it walk backward. But I know the Secret Sauce here: you just wanted to do a bunch of fabri-cobbling, and that trailer gave you an excellent excuse to do so.
Your pin setup needs another piece; two on one side and one on the other that swings up between the two. Yours will open with any great pressure,as far as I can tell. I just took my trailer apart and repainted it. I need to make new sides. Love your channel.
That looks pretty good, would of liked to watch you build one from scratch thou!

I still think it was financially cheaper to buy this one, but certainly not labour-wise cheaper than building from scratch.
Fantastic job!
They should have paid you to take that trailer off their hands.

Oh my gosh. There is an element of deep regret there.
You have put in a lot of work I would go one more step and get an axle from tractor supply.

Currently on sale at Princess Auto for 1/3 what I paid for the trailer. I'm tempted.
You mean to tell me all the things you can do and as smart as you are you can't cut an angle Buy a speed square for heavens sake

Oh, I can mark it out just fine. My hands, tools, cutters, and gravity conspire against me every time.
At the start you said in BC that you don't need an inspection for a built trailer. I feel like that may have changed in recent years but I may be wrong....

Thanks for finding a trailer that was uglier than my manure hauler!

Maybe even uglier than the manure.
This must be your garbage trailer you were talking about in the last video of you packing trashy bearings.

The problem with being able to fix things, is you fix more things. I don't think you actually save money that way.
You were better off building from scratch.
