Thanks Nappy. :thanks

Got the trailer out that we fixed a few weeks ago to replace a tire and got some pics of what we did. We got the rear axle and crosspieces straightened out, added 8 new stake pockets to tie down Horses with, replaced the rear fenders with a heavy duty set, ran all new wiring, and replaced the floor with aluminum. The flooring is made from used state road signs, they come in 12" and 6" pieces that are very thick and heavy. Each piece bolts together to get what size you need in one direction and we cut the length to fit. It will be the last floor that trailer ever gets, they are really strong and it's like walking on concrete. We still have to paint the trailer and floor, and add new LED lights when we get time. The trailer will be red, the floor will get Rhino lined, and the wheels will be ivory of course. :tounge2 :thumb1

I have a friend that needed some shafts made and key ways cut for a project. I told him I had the materials in stock and equipment to do everything, the shafts or clip grooves, pins, etc, but not the key cutting set. He said a nice key cutting set was cheaper than what others wanted to do the machine work so if we would make the shafts he would buy the key cutting set for us to keep if we did the work. Looks like we can make shafts and even cut the key ways now. :woo

Now we can do more stuff, like I need more stuff to do. :rolling

The bathroom is done. :woo

The only thing I never finished after we did the granite floor a few years ago that I wanted to was a black granite sink, nickel faucet and soap dispenser. It has a cleaner look and is a little less cluttered now. :smile2
