Message: <blockquote data-quote="Cowcatcher" data-source="post: 4071389" data-attributes="member: 43171">Put 3” channel crossmembers in today and just finished sewing the 3/16” thick plate down. Local steel supply had 5’x12’ sheets so  it was nice not having to piece in anything. Crossmembers have 16” between them. Stitched the border then rolled around on the creeper stitching the plate to the crossmembers from the bottom. No bigger than this trailer is I didn’t feel it were necessary to flip it over or stand it on end. The bigger wheels and tires give it lots of ground clearance so welding the underside wasn’t bad at all. Did use the kubota winch to pull the plate from one trailer into position on this one. I think the receipt said this sheet weighed 450 pounds. Subtract a twelfth and that’s what it weighs now. [ATTACH=full]391949[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]391950[/ATTACH]</blockquote>
