| so this morning i recieved the new tubes and finaly got to the big work. so first i made a rectangle out of 40x40mm tubes (rearshaft sits on top of it so youll get the idea  )  getting it set up perfectly with help of our welding table   and i found these triangle shaped 4mm thick pieces of steel wich seemed pretty much perfect to hold the rear shaft:  getting it welded in to place...  and i found these pieces of lazercut steel that were perfect to use as the tipping point of the trailer (im not sure if i told you but this trailer is going to have a tipping option on it)  and with the main tube thingy that goes to the tractor welded on:  and that would be the progress i have made today  tomorrow will be another update
