I apologize for the sideways pictures but I'm not going to fix them.

This is where I get my trailer sandblasted. I filled the holes with a body filler and then grinded off the extra, worked great. there were a bunch of holes because of the ugly wood that was on top as well as since it was a forest service, I believe it was used to haul hoses around so they drilled a ton of holes in the bottom. I filled all of them.

I also replaced the factory shocks on the frame as well as welded some 1x1 angle iron on the lip of the tub. I did this so It would be easier to build a lid so it can seal better to keep the water out.

The welder I bought was a cheap $150 flux core welder. I didn't spend much because this was the FIRST time I EVER welded was with this welder, and wasn't sure if I would like it. Well I do!

Next was paint, I let my girlfriend help with the spray paint even though she sucks at it. She doesn't understand the straight lines, and does circles. Oh well, it turned out fine. More projects to come.
