Re: trailer build...home job

Re: trailer build...home job
Nice job bud, looks great. I have considered doing my own trailer repairs but my welding really needs some improvement first or my pride and joy will be left dragging down the freeway by the winch post! I've only tried stick welding and not mig. What mig did you get, how did you find it and what was the gauge of the steel? I'm keen to try it as a useful hobby...
