    When you turn Beagles loose sometimes you have to go find them!

    30 years ago I was doing a service call in a large laboratory. It was full of beagles, they did tests on them for research. Kind of sad.

    My FIL heard his about a 1/2 mile away barking a few weeks ago. So he jumped on the quad and rode up the mountain and tracked him down. Found him barking up a tree at a bear cub. :startled:

    The bear came down the tree then stood up on his back legs...
    FIL backed away...quickly...o_O

    Progress was slow today. Had to design the sides and there was lots of trial and error. And angles. And welding. Staging the trailer in many positions to see clearances...
    Not to mention, the bending, beating clamping and swearing...:emb:

    I would have complicated the side walls by extending a box as wide as the outside of the tires (fore and aft of the wheel sets) and then used your fandangled angled assemblies at the wheel wells.....:wacky:
