First welding project.

So I bought a 6 x 12 open trailer to put my two four wheelers on to move around. I didn't want to buy the 6 x 16 trailer because it was $500 more and I decided I would rather put a four wheeler sideways and one straight. Well that's not as easy as it sounds when you have 2 4x4 4 wheelers and one is lifted with big tires.

I put one on sideways to start and it gets old real quick you have to lift them up it's just a pain in the ass especially if you're by yourself to get on sideways.

So I was trying to figure out a way to put A four wheeler on sideways easier so I went to look at trailers in tractor supply and seen the ones that had the side gate and really wish I would've spent the extra 300 and bought one of those .

So I decided to cut the side of my trailer to make easy access but I needed a way to support it without putting a Gate on.

So I looked at the trailers and tractor supply in seeing they were the same exact trailer is mine with no extra supports on the bottom they just had a drop gate and it looks like the only thing supporting it when it was moving was it to latches that lock the gate which I guess made that one side sturdy.

So I decided if I was to cut the side rail off of my trailer I need to make it sturdy when I am Pulling it around with weight on it. so what I decided to do is Cut the sidebar, used to scrap piece that I cut to make two down supports to give the ends more support, then I would cut a piece to go over the top with pins that would pin in place and a down support that would be pinned in also and this whole support would be removable.

Well heres pics.
