sweet trailer. but the carpenter in me is saying that you need to put other 2x4s at all of the corners. also the tail gait needs to better. i dont think you will get that registered with 2/2x4s as your tailgate. run a 2x4 across the top, bottom and the sides to make a rectangle. then screw that into the other 2x4's you have there already.

Noticed you have a weedeater one, hows it run? Mine was my worst nightmare: ran it for 3 days, spent 3 months in the garage to have the tranny redone because they forgot a piece when weedeater originally assembled it and cut my losses and sold it for half of what i paid it as soon as they returned it to me.

He needs to use a marine-grade plywood. Something Like a 7 ply 3/4" its durability rating is exterior and the glue used is a water resistant structural adhesive. That's what they use when building decks if there covered or screened.

That is what I will use when I build my landscaping trailer for my truck. also you could use the 3/4" veneer which is also good for water resistance. the stuff is supposed to be very durable.

Mine has been well 200 hours or so I have had to grease the chains in the tranny and the wheels have popped on the back right and left front other then that it is good so far I am going to sell it after this season I am buying a new gravely self propelled mower and I am going to re do my garage with 2600 dollars in HF tools and craftsman stuff :thumbsup:

K-Pro-Mowing,
Is that the XD3, the Pro Walk 20 or the Pro Walk High Wheels series you are looking at in the Gravely??? Those are some nice looking self-propelled mowers, but they can get pretty pricey(at least for what I would spend on one:0)

Good choice.....the HRR216VKA! Honda Lawn Mowers: HRR216VKA, HRR216K8VKA

Thats a good choice for a mower (i have one) but inwould strongly suggest getting the blade brake clutch on it because i really regret not getting mine with one.
