I now have a trailer frame. It is a bit rusty but not bad. The problem is that I thought it would be 28ft long as that was the size of the Layton trailer. But it is only 25 ft. I was going to canteliver the last two feet to fit into my design but now I will have to come up with a new plan.

I started looking around for a trailer frame that was 30 feet long. It became apparent that a new one would be price prohibitive, so I started looking on craigslist. I became obsessed. Even there everything that fit our requirements was over 3k. We changed our strategy and started looking for used campers. It didn't take long to find one that we thought would work.
