My newest project! Almost done...

Playin with the camera again.

My son and I just, (almost), finished building this. Still have to build a lid for the box on the tongue and run the wiring. The box lid will be diamond plate aluminum to match the fenders.

It's an extended handle for a boat type winch mounted on the top front cross tube.

Hahaha, Didn't realize I got that in the pic. That's what heats my house, (and my shop soon). It's basically an outdoor wood burning stove.

That's a good looking little trailer. I have been meaning to buy me a small trailer, but there always seems to be something else that needs to be purchased...

Thanks!
I know how the "always something else" feels.
I built this one to replace my smaller one, that will be posted on the for sale board before long btw!

Besides, one of my favorite things to do is build things.
Some of my other projects;
cherrypicker,
torch bottle cart,
mig welder cart,
atv tire bead breaker (it's mounted on the front of the trailer),
a few reciever hitches,
4x6 tubing bumpers for my 72,
an 8x12 storage shed made from square steel tubing,
and now 2 trailers.

Yup.
Easiest way to explain how it works it to check it out at www.centralboiler.com

Works excellent.
Someday I plan to heat the floor in my shop with it, but right now until I can afford to pour the concrete, I'm just hookin it up to another heating coil setup just like the house.

Heats our hot water too.
