Bike trailer

That looks to me like a relatively simple build. I´d make the floor with fiber glass tape on 2x 2s &
3/8¨ plywood. The sides & top could be of corrigated plastic sheet or 1/ 4¨ paneling. I have a piece of
5/8¨ axle stock I could tool to fit 16¨ wheels or something that fits 5/8¨ I´ve got a slew of 5/8 bearings,
or maybe pillow blocks. I´ve a number of things i could use for the hitch, including one already
fabricated. I´ḿ almost done with the hybrid gas/electric. just cosmetics & 2 connects left. I also have
a 6¨ piece of 3/8 with 2 x 2 joists once served as a dog ramp. The slide out would be shorter & squared
off. Oh goody, a new project.. 🥴
Thanks, That was the plan to use 1x2 or 2x2 for the sides and top and 2x3 floor with 1/4 ply.

You can get the hitches online made for atv carts that would work but you would need to fashion a ball hitch of sorts. I have a couple of older bike cargo trailers I can salvage a hitch from.

I will give it a try when it warms up and post my success or failure!
