Ok, now it's actually done

I spent the afternoon getting the side-stakes set up, and getting the anti-skid stuff attached. It's done. Now I just need a load and a destination!

Trailer finished (mostly)

I screwed the plywood deck down to the frame today:

Of course, it may never be done, but here's the list of things I'm pretty sure I have yet to do:

• Cut side-posts and lace up with rope or netting or something
• Rework the tail-light mount so the trailer can stand on its tail without smashing the light
• Staple on anti-skid matting to keep loads from sliding

I've also got a better trailer-side hitch design in mind, but I'm not going to worry about that for a little bit yet. It'll be easy enough to build when I get around to it.

So, for the moment, the trailer's done! Unfortunately, that leaves me without a pressing project for the day, and thus, I sit here wondering what I'm going to do with myself... sigh.
