In a different style video, Connor takes an old and rusted out 7x12 utility trailer and fully restores it to a road worthy trailer ready to haul rental equipment, mounds of wood chips, or any fun toys we may pick up along the way. Please let me know if you enjoyed this style of video, I'd love to add a few extra projects to the channel!

"And just like that..." you said, but you worked so hard on it and I'm amazed at what you achieved in what seems like a short amount of time. The trailer looks brand new!

@LivingLargeCamping 2 месяца назад

Haha it felt like it went quick!

@secretsamadhi5376 2 месяца назад

I too enjoyed this video, as well as your others. I'm looking forward to more diy projects around the cabin, camper or whatever you two decide to do. Keep the content coming.

The trailer looks 100% better. You must miss Amelia a lot~ will she be in the next video? Stay safe & well.

@LivingLargeCamping 2 месяца назад

Thank you! And yes, she’s back already!

You could’ve just put some lipstick on the pig and called it good, but you took the extra time and now have a trailer will reward you for many years to come! Great job there sir! As always, stay safe out there…..

@LivingLargeCamping 2 месяца назад

Thanks, Mike! Definitely could have, but if I’m going to drive with it I’m going to make sure it’s all in working order. Have a great week!

Well done, I love to see some of the younger guys turning wrenches and welding!!! I remember my dad teaching me how to pack bearings. I never learned how to weld but I love watching it!

@LivingLargeCamping 2 месяца назад

It sure is a great skill to have!

I love that you took something old and rusty and gave it new life. You worked so hard on it and it will be a workhorse for you now!! Job well done. Thank you for letting me observe the process! Look forward to all of your guy’s content.

Connor, in watching you do the trailer rebuild, all I can say is ~ great work! I could tell by watching you that you've had a good bit of experience working on trailers, welding, wiring, etc. Nice job and it is ready for another (25) years of use or many road miles! This will be a great tool for you as you work around your new home/cabin. Keep the content coming, really enjoy your video's!

@LivingLargeCamping 2 месяца назад

Thank you! And it sure is better than the day we picked it up, it’ll have a great second life around here. Appreciate the support!

You are right the price of trailers has gone crazy. I bought a 10’ dump trailer 8 years ago for $5500. Now they are over 10k. Nice job on the trailer, plus a great deal!

They’re expensive, but a good trailer will last a lifetime!

My 76 year old is sure enjoying your video on restoring the trailer. You have skills and knowledge for doing this project. My husband has done a lot of this kind of thing since we have lived on properties which required a lot of skills. Your trailer looks great and you made it safer to use.

@ChristineSlay 2 месяца назад

It's great seeing maintenance videos, too! I do all my own, so it's always good to watch and learn 👌

@LivingLargeCamping 2 месяца назад

Definitely the best way to go! Thanks Christine!

@mikeslaven6874 2 месяца назад

Enjoyable video, glad the young generation is picking up the skill set of doing it yourself....always use new cotter pins , use the right size for the intended application, rule of thumb is fill 70% of the hole minimum. Seems like you had some farming experience along the way :)

@LivingLargeCamping 2 месяца назад

That’s a good rule of thumb!

@reubenj.cogburn8546 2 месяца назад

Good call on the trailer. It is one of the most Universal gadgets you can buy. One can even transport a pickup camper on one.... Some plywood walls, and it can become a wood chip transporter. I just wanted to also mention building solid relations with neighbors worth them, is very wise. When you live out in the country, your social reputation is Paramount. You will find that the way you are treated locally largely depends on this. Well done

Why do you leave your camper jacked up? Why not lower it and put blocks under it and relieve the pressure off the jacks.
