Welcome to the Outfit!
Snap us a few pictures of your new-to-you trailer so the rest of us can oogle it. Pix will be a good way to see your progress. Time to do a little maintenance like wheel bearing grease and checking out the brakes too. TM's are in the trailer section for pictures of...

And that electric jack is nice too! Huff and Puff and Grunt loading and unloading the trailer - and then you get home - and have to crank the handle to disconnect the trailer... Yes sir, the jack doing the work is a nice upgrade!
Paint job is nice too.

@Tinstar , I have to ask... You mentioned restoring the Craftsman vice on your trailer. Also mentioned that you had restored it to be outside permanently. I have a M1089 and part of the setup is a vice up between the tool boxes. I keep it spray with WD40 to keep the "screw" limber and...

Neat! An old railroad cart...
Or at least the four that I have came from there.
From over on Tryon Street many many moons ago.
I never saw what they used to drag the carts around with on the rail platform.
Nice vice setup!
If you end up going to a saw mill, I have found over the years...

With the military the way is is today - it isn't unusual to see the Marine Reserve here off North Tryon or the Army 108th Tng unit in their convoys with Camo, Green and Tan trucks. Both groups have a "hodge podge" of tan rims on green trucks and covers that don't match the truck by color...

That's really nice. Especially since you have a truck with a crane on the back - where you can pick up stuff and load it on the trailer. Definitely nice.

That is nice. Everything you need all in a nice compact trailer.
With paint and rims to match the truck makes it pretty awesome!
And the puppy dog seems to be ready for a hot dog or a hamburger...
I am guarding the fort dad!

Wow. That is a lot of goodies moving in the 373!
Not sure I would be helping my X move anything, so you must be a better man than me... Hope it all works out well and that you don't fall over from exhaustion.

Nice! You needed to have a reason to take her somewhere :cool: .
Agreed that a nice comfy place to sleep without involving Paris is a good thing.

Guess that little tiny 7-Ton will just have to be "your fix" then for a little while :cool:
You could always ride the M1123 in the back of the MTVR...
Toys are Fun!!!

Wow. And the stink from those things when they "go" will make you gag. Best thing we ever did here in the shop was converting to LEDs. I was on a ladder at least twice a month swapping a ballast. It has been 7 years since the swap and we are finally starting to see some bulb failures...
Those panels look good! Nice job Floridianson ! First class lighting in that trailer for sure.
We replaced our ballast lighting using tubes in the existing fixtures here in the print shop about 6 years ago. It is SO nice to just have light and zero maintenance. Power bill is less too...
