Making a trailer

I have a long-bed that I used the cab off of for my short-bed. Now going to make a trailer out of the long-bed. It looks straight forward. V notch the frame on both sides. Run a piece down the middle and weld it up with a hitch. Anyone do this and have pictures. I love me some pictures.

No wood either so I was going to do something with tie downs in the bed as well.

Looking for good ideas. Memorial day weekend project.
