GLOAT I gotta lumber get'er

I bought a 12' long, 6' wide Leonard utility trailer. Oh boy, she's a bute!
:)

No more lumber sticking out the back of the family SUV. Now I can buy as
much lumber as I can afford without worrying about "Is it all gonna fit?"

Now I need to buy one of them dolly's (harbor freight $40) to roll it around
back so the neighbors don't have to look at it.

I bought the cheap dolly and regretted it. It has small, single wheels
that dig into damp lawn. I later got a longer rod for the axle and put
two wheels on each side, which does some better. Larger diameter wheels
like the heavy duty model would work better.

If you bought it, then it doesn't qualify as a gloat.

But it's a hum-dinger of a neener!

Yeah, you suck (all this crappy weather we're having is probably
caused by the low pressure area centered around your house)!

That problem doesn't really go away - it just gets bigger and happens
a bit less frequently. <g>

Remember to check your wheel bearings from time to time.

Yep. It's a neener, not a gloat. :)

Not sure how heavy your trailer is - I have a 5x10 that I use that dolly on
and it works fine.
Just make sure the tires stay inflated and it works like a charm.
I picked up on sale w/ a coupon totaled about 25 bux - money will spent
IMO - make moving that beast around easywork.
