smithy Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 I built this low-loader to take my combination drill around a few years ago and over the years its had a few mini-diggers;dumpers;and vintage tractors on it but the last dumper being a big one went through the wooden floor as the supports were to far apart and the floor a bit rotten so over the bank-holiday weekend I added some more supports (all the red bits)just got to replace floor now 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smithy Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 Timber again for the floor?Don't now what would be best? so as it was the front half that had gone rotten I have got 2 sheets of 4.8mm chequerplate coming today (Friday) to try on the front and the back half I will put back the original 30mm thick plywood what I took out of a container floor as this seems to be ok might look a bit odd but don't want to use all steel to start with as I think it might be a bit slippery for tires when wet. Chequerplate is £100 a sheet +vat so don't wont to do it all straight away in case it is slippery the height difference in middle wont matter to wheels and combination drill will sit ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tractorman810 Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 got my first uprights in for the new railway sleeper retaining wall I am doing, so got all my levels set now for the rest when the sleepers arrive, got 16 to move, just under 1/2 a ton in weight in total , delivery hopefully Friday, worst case sat as they had run out of stock ,which was a shame as I was hoping for them on Wednesday as I have this week off so could have built it all in the days left then, oh well, see how I get on Saturday afternoon / sunday I guess once they are here.
