So we have an old TK 14 tag trailer in the field rotting away and we thought it should come back to life as something useful. It's a very well made trailer just don't use it. We have a 14K pan and 14K gooseneck trailer for moving stuff and they both fit the bill.
From time to time we need small amounts of material on site such as rip-rap for a small outflow, topsoil for a small area, stone, sand or the occasional haul off of all sorts of items. I'm a packrat so if the GC has any extra material they want to get rid of I'm more than happy to take it off their hands. Also I have a few personal projects in the planning stage that I need to haul some stuff.
Winter here in the south means rain and lots of it so it's a perfect time to build when we can't move dirt and give the guys a paycheck.
Last Thursday we removed the old decking and screws. Tomorrow we'll get more into the "demo" portion which will be removing the cross members and cutting the beaver tail off. No pics yet but I'll take some.
Planning on using an electric over hydraulic hoist probably in the 5 ton range. I'm not settled on brand or style just yet so looking for opinions on hoists.
More to follow.
