Damaged trailer bed

Trailer bed needs replacement

This small trailer was worth repairing.  It is approximately 6' wide by 7' long and would be capable of carrying small farm equipment after it is repaired.

Using pressure treated 2x6 fir and securing the planks with round headed carriage bolts, this trailer is ready to go.  To complicate the installation, the trailer design has the planks sliding under the supports at front and rear before securing.
