It is time!
Sheets on and now welding it to the flatbed frame.
Once complete I’m putting it back on the truck and starting the skirting!

I’ve been thoroughly occupied by another portion of this build so much that I have completely forgotten to share some of where the flatbed build is currently at!!!
The flat frame is complete and all welds are done, finished with a coat of flat black primer.
I’m going to flip this around and now it’s time to finally lay some sheets down!
I’m woeful to inform you all that it appears that the price of steel continues to go up and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future. Just in the last year I’ve seen quite the significant increase in prices from my supply and their supply and I cannot continue to operate as I once did anymore.
Truly unfortunate circumstance is the current state of industry at this time.
As much as I really do not want to I will have to adjust my prices to compensate for the rise of the price of steel.
This will be reflected upon future estimates as well as scheduled builds.
I truly hope prices go down soon, at least by next year. One of the main reasons I started this business was to offer decent prices for hand built off road / overland equipment but it seems that with the cost of nearly everything continuing to increase we’ve been entering a new baseline for what a “decent price” is.

Time for the full weld passes!

Look who’s back!
The overland camping trailer I built for one of my absolute favorite clients Nick, was recently dropped off for some struts to ease the ride.
1/4 inch thick upper mounts, a 1/8 inch square tubing for the lower, and installed with grade 8 hardware.
The last 2 pictures show a bit more detail of the lower mounts and the space between the body/strut and wheel/strut. This was during the fitting process so the hardware there is not the grade 8 hardware it was finished with.
Additionally I’ve designed it to accommodate another set of struts if he chooses to soften up the ride a bit more in the future!
Happy Monday and I wish all of you a most glorious week!!
