I'm going to build a 5,500 lb trailer from online plans. In store bot'n parts, it will be at least $600. The axels alone will be over $400.
I've never done a trailer, before. Advice as to the welds would be appreciated. According to the plans, the parts are mostly 1/8 angle of various dimensions. There are a few pieces of 3/16.
I'd be using this trailer to haul heavy iron objects, e.g. mills, lathes, compressors, engines. Having it come apart on I-95 would not be cool.
Advice on the welds? I have MIG, stick, TIG, torch welding ability.
