New from IA, looking to build a flatbed trailer

[njoenks]

I'm new from Iowa, I've worked 27 years as a steel fabricator, machinest, plumber, welder, maintenance man and all around flunky in a meat packing plant. I've just pulled home a bare frame from a 22 foot camper that was the right price, FREE. and am going to build a tandem axel flat bed out of it. I have the experience but its sure a lot easier with the tricks and tips others have learned. Thanks for the assistance.

I did that with a single axle 16 footer that I cut down to 13' with the last 18" being a home made dovetail.

i hope IOWA isnt near the PITA that IL is, on home made trailer registration
