| Scale Crawler Trailer!
My son wanted a trailer for his RC truck. So, this is what I come up with! Started out by using 3/16" brake line that I hand cut and bent, then brazed together. Used a Traxxas rod end for the hitch and a small chain from the local hardware store for safety chains. The wheels and tires are from the local hobby shop. I believe they are airplane wheels!:-P The axles are made from a 1/8 steel that I cut then brazed on 4mm bolts. Just used a piece of wood for the platform. The trailer messures 12" wide and 18" long (24" long total). I think it turned out great! See what you think!
