Metal Frame For Trailer?

Anyone know where to get metal tubing like on this picture? Like is there anywhere out there that sells something to bolt onto the the trailer and you have a frame for hanging ladders, hose reels, ect?

Ask @Racer. That’s his trailer. I bet he says your local metal supplier.

Any metal supply store should have it. I bet its like 3/16in square metal tubing, 1.5in sq or so.

I think in his video it’s just cheap old angle. A good tack weld on a 90 degree corner should be able to hold around 100 lbs if not more. Even a bad weld will hold more than anything we’re going to throw at it. Buy a bunch of angle iron (it’s cheap) and learn to weld. Wire feed machine and gas and you’ll know how to weld in two hours.

It’s worth it to weld if you have a trailer so you can customize it.

Look at the chart for metal thickness and use it as a starting point for settings. Adjust the wire feed speed so it sounds like bacon sizzling in a pan and you’ll be really close. Might sound like its silly but it does sound like it.

@squidskc is right. It’s just 5/16 and 1/4" angle iron. The uprights are 5/16 bolted in. The longitudinal rails are tack welded to the uprights on each and the horizontals are 1/4"just bolted in. Entire thing can be dismounted in less than 30mins.

2"x2" square tube at bottom frame and top used 11/2" x 1/12" L angle will do lot. I will attach photos soon

You dont buy it.
Yiu custom built it

Please don’t bring your trailer debacle back up again

The inlet hose with a tape measure over it picture was pretty funny though.

Debate? Really?
Facts.
You custom order it.
Or you build it urself… any other way?

I said debacle, not debate. We were referring top the lies you got caught in with your trailer and inlet goar

There’s really not much good that can come from bringing that up again.

Who is we? You really think too much of yiur sekf, self righteous … (you can fill it up)
Do we all have to put up with you everytime you wake up on the wrong foot, or dont take your meds?
Dont stir things up again

For the sake of Alex I won’t bring up your lying and stealing anymore. Well, at least for awhile lol. You have been behaving recently, so kudos for that.

Listen you self righteous punk… no one has to put up with non sense.
Just cause you mention Alex, dont mean crap for most of us.
If you cant apologize then just move along or dont post.
All starts with your crap and we dont have to put up with you.
It was so quiet and peaceful when you left, you should take a brake

I don’t know the whole situation but from what I’m reading it wasn’t pleasant.

Why not just look at how you can make something positive from something negative. It’s hard sometimes to find a positive unless you look at things in a certain perspective. It’s humbling to look at yourself in the mirror like that but it’s how we grow as people. It’s a way to better yourself.

Give it some thought please.
