My parts were supposed ahead of schedule and were arriving at the latest tonight, no box on the porch though. Maybe tomorrow, I guess.
I see what you mean, at this point it's easier and quicker to pack it full, as I need to stay focused on the trailer
.
I'm hoping to get some angle iron welded onto the frame vertically a couple inches above the top of the frame tomorrow, but I'm not sure if the welder will reach outside that far. My buddy made a paint booth just inside the bay door, it's totally blocking the bay door from opening. So, if the extension cord doesn't reach I'm dead in the water on my plans, but I'll start getting a few more smalls done. If I do get those angles welded on, I'll be bringing the trailer home and "pressure washer blasting" the frame and then priming/painting it Thursday.
Today I got the wheel openings very close to finished(depends on how the metal goes in I guess), cut the board from the deck that was warped and sticking up, and did a bunch of tire swapping, removing, and replacing. I'm still not 100% what tires I want to use, but the tires determine how much clearance I need in the wheel well. I think I want to use the black wheels off my single axle trailer, I'll just need to buy at least one more rim. I'll finish trimming the c-channel when I have the deck off the next time as it will be easier when it's tipped on it's side, unless I'm rocking tomorrow or I can't get the welding done.

I was doing a little grading when I got home, and there was a rock that looked to be about 10-12" I wanted to pluck out because I didn't want to hit it with the lawnmower. So I started picking at it, then more, then more, then
. I told my wife, look mom, I found a rock, can we keep it
. The bucket is 4' across (this is the little tractor), and the whitish part on the top by the grill is all I could see, it was about an inch out of the ground and maybe 8" around if that.

Then there was a tree that was in my way grading(also when backing a trailer to near the bonfire pit), so...

Managed to get another bucket full, this time with cherry wood
.
Hope to get it all split in the morning, then I'll do some more tire swapping but on the trailers at the house.

err... line in the water..."
. I have another one out back that was showing about a 3-4' top, but only 3-4 inches out of the ground, I covered that one best I could, it must be ginormous. What do those look like. We are in the grand river, river valley, I've seen plenty of small car sized rocks set out in front of people's homes, businesses, or at gravel pits.
i like ur #1... gives me some ideas...
