I have started the M 172 Lowboy Trailer. I have the frame and rear wheels started. I still have more brace work for the under side and then the fun part of the goose neck extension for the fifth wheel and skid plate and landing struts.

Hello Dave, it's always a pleasure seeing your scratchbuilding projects. The trailer of to a great start, what truck will be in front pulling her and will there be anything chained down on top of it. I built this same trailer last year with the help from Joe Wallace. Looking forward to your next posting.

Awesome build Joe. Very clean build which I have come to expect from your bench. I don't know if I will put anything on it. I think that I will either have the M52 A1 or the M275 A1 to pull it. Not sure at this time.
