    Awesome Plans! Includes materials list!

    These plans arrive in a sturdy tube, suitable for storage and stacking. Inside, the plans are on thick draft paper.

    Very detailed, including joinery instruction. Haven’t checked on hydraulics yet, so I’m hoping that the cylinder needed is a standard size!

    Will update this review as construction progresses.

    Plans are fine

    I work at a high school. My shop students have built numerous trailers using these plans. My only complaint is that even though the bill of materials is listed as a picture, the square footage of plate doesn't tell me what I need to know to get a quote on steel. I need to figure out if a 12" wide piece of 1/4" plate will be sufficient, etc. Most of the time weight is what it is sold for (I can calculate) but in some cases it is the size (width) and if I have it on hand, etc. or do I need to cut out a scrap sheet on our plasma table. I have had to buy plans just to do a quote for a trailer, and about 50% of the time they don't end up having us build it but we bought the plans. Also, since I bought it on a school credit card I have asked for a receipt saying it was paid by credit card 2X, I received a sales order, not a receipt after my initial request. Sent another one today.
