When I see a POS like this it would't be a big deal if his ad read "great for hauling bags of foam peanuts or heilum balloons. To think this was used as a "GREAT WOOD HAULER"...is reckless bordering on criminal. Looks like he ductaped an axle to a bedframe garbaged picked on trash day...... WOW.

It does have a certain charm about it. I like how the leaf springs don't seem to line up with the edge of the trailer.




And to be honest, I paid $50 for a trailer in worse shape than this one!

You know what you call that trailer? Trouble, Danger, Hazard, Accident ...lol And my problem is not with the trailer itself....but the fact that morons like him/her....has taken it on a public road and surely endangered the lives and safety of others.

This is some really poor quality construction, welding, cutting lol..... but notice the top $ price

 

[unclemoustache]

Bad welding, but you have to admit, all the components are brand new. Motor, pump, tires, trailer hitch and winch, etc.

The trailer part of it is cool. I wonder what it originally was. You are right about the quality of the welding/fabrication. It is on par with mine, when I was 14 years old.

I think what the seller is saying is, if you strapped some 4"x4"'x8's to it (to compensate for the lack of frame) it would, in a sense, haul those wood 4"x4"'s.

Nearing the retirement from the AF time, I took a class in welding to have some skill I could get a job with. Shop instructor hauled in a hangar door to make a trailer out of. Used single axle with two wheel bogies on the end. Nice job and we got a lot of welding experience out of it. His 'knowledge and design' work left a lot to be desired when it came to the springs. He had us weld the mount on one end and the opposite end solid with no spring shackles. No way for those springs to move at all.

I don't know what it was before, but the beam looks like it could be a section of railroad track rail mounted upside down?

Large Red Oak Tree Wood for Sale - $50 (White Hall, MD)

This is a large red oak that was recently struck at its base by lightning and is lying on the ground. It's easy to get to, only a few feet off the driveway. This red oak is approximately 70-75 feet long and 6 to 7 feet in circumference at the base. You will have to cut it up yourself. I'll guarantee one and a half cords.

I respond to all these adds by politely telling them that there's very little chance of anybody paying to clean up their property and that I would be more than happy to remove the usable wood at no cost. I've done pretty good over the years convincing people that the tree that fell out back isn't a goldmine .
