I ended up running the main hitch tube back from the front of the trailer to the rear with a 4 ft section as to have a hitch receiver in the rear. Excuse my poor, beginner TIG welds haha. They get better, I promise.
Starting to fit the front section of the fender.
This will hopefully help push the trailer around trees if needed. On the downside I need to mount a marker light here. I might make some guards for the little marker lights.
I tried to TIG weld this very acute angle. Wasn’t possible. I even switch from my gas lens to the standard gas nossle as it is skinnier, still not happening. I had to use the MIG welding and run about a 1” stick out. I upped the voltage and use a bar of a aluminum below the weld to help aid in gas coverage. It came out pretty well.
