Ok, the trailers I see around cost a lot of money, I don't have that sort of money at the moment, so have had a look in my shed and clubbed together a few bits that I have had lying around for sometime.
I have some 18mm marine ply, some nice tubing left over from a childs trampoline some coach bolts, from god knows where and we have an old three wheel push chair thing you know the ones with the big spoked wheels. I am hoping to build a frame and tow bar fronm the tubing and fit the wheels from the pushchair on to it and then use the ply as the base.
I would eventualy like it to transport the two yr old around in it and also have a removable seat so I can use it for carrying other stuff!
I haven't got down to the build yet but am starting to plan how I will do it. I also have a child seat that could be fixed in but it is rather heavy and am not sure if there is a better idea I could use? I guess for safety of my child the car seat would be good as long as the whole thing and the child together is not too heavy for my wife to pull around.
Anyone else built one of these ever and any advise that could be offered will be gratefully recieved.
Thanks DJ.
