fold up Tinny trailer DIY ideas ?

Hi Hazo
I built a very simple boat trailer to suit my 3.7mtr stessel edgetracker it consisted of two pieces of 40mm box section. One piece cut to suit width of boat and wheels second piece cut to suit length of boat.Each piece has a flat plate 300mm x 100mm x 5mm long welded in centre of box section with wheels attached.
The other piece is welded across the draw bar length this enables you to bolt two lengths together with 3 x 13mm bolts.
I used two rubber wheel barrow tyres with stub axles and flat washers with split pins to hold in place. 3 small bolt rollers two on cross piece and one up forward on the draw bar to support front of boat.
The draw bar had a second piece of box section that slid inside main draw bar this enables you to extend the draw bar to twice the length to keep vehicle out of water.
When packed up it consisted of two pieces of 40mm box section, 2 x wheel barrow wheels which easily packed away on my pack rack or camper trailer.
I used it very successfully up cape york on the beaches.
It towed very well behind the L/C.
Sorry I can't post the photos and plans, if you want to give us a call 0409436081 with your e-mail address I'm more than happy to send them to you.
Hope you can make sense of my brief description, as they say a picture is worth a thousand words !!!!
Good luck with your project.

Yep I did similar except I used 2 x 25mm square pieces to triangulate the axle when swung into position
I also spend money on proper 9" alloy wheels and tyres
Im now working on making it fold as well as the front trailer winch and upright
Mine looks kind of similar to Real Ezy basic version. They sell some of the hard to get parts too which would be what Id do next time.
Probably cost under $400, and took a weekend to fit together. No welding required all bolt tegether so it can be adjusted, also welds are where rust will start.
