tinkering time

Here's the "vehicle" I've been spending all my tinkering time on the last couple of weeks:




I've been modifying this trailer to fit a different sailboat model than it was originally built for: changing pad height/locations, lowering the suspension, raising the fenders, relocating the tongue jack, making a guide for the keel, adding a winch, adding an extendable tongue.

Generally having fun playing with a stick welder.
