Fantastic trailer re-build. Looks like it ended up working out great. I'm curious, on your drawers, did you leave the end grain exposed? On your cabinetts, it looks like you put on a piece of quarter round. Thanks for all the pictures.

I love that high-rider look!
What are those wheels anyway - 17 inches?

I edged all the ply with iron on edging you can purchase at your local windsor plywood. the kitchen has a piece of trim for a nosing on the countertop covering the end grain.

I put 15 inch rims with 6 lug pattern to match the truck, this way I can swap tires in an emergency from trailer to tow vehicle or visa versa.

Beautiful woodwork! So I'm curious, with all that heavy new cabinetry, mostly all at one end, was there extra structural work you had to do (sorry, maybe I missed that part) and do you you what the trailer weighs now? Enjoy!

It's really a great job. The best part for me is that you identified what you needed or didn't need and then removed things from the unit that were unnecessary and built the things that were. I always feel like it doesn't truly become yours until you can do a move like that. Very clean. The cabinets are top notch.

I haven't weighed it officially at the scale yet but I'm thinking it went from approx. 960lbs to about 1600. I did add more members to the front and back of the frame for rigidity as well as to help tie the frame together better front to back. The tongue weight is now approx. 200 LBS loaded, significantly more than before the front cabinet was added.
