Well have an equipment trailer but we can't put cars on it. We design and weld on a dovetail for the trailer

This was very helpful. I have c6500 that I wannt to " dovetail" :) I understand sdditional weight of this but curious why you didn't add folding drop down ramps hinged to the trailer?

Thanks for the comment. We tried to keep it simple. We might mount the ramps to the trailer in the future if time allows. Really, if we made the ramps narrower and some thinner material it would be WAY easier to manage.

Why y'all can't fabricate a table to sit the bandsaw on?
@goldies_garage
@goldies_garage Жыл бұрын
It's a "portable bandsaw" and because of the size & weight, It is easier for us to move the bandsaw to the metal vs bringing the metal to the bandsaw.

Why have the ramp that short?

I'm no scientist and going to assume you are talking about the dovetail. I have three reasons... The longer anything is the stronger the structure would have to be. I don't want to get into and nor do I know steel load limits and whatnots. Weight, just adding this alone add about 700 lb. to the trailer with just reduced the capacity of the trailer. If we make it to long or low it will drag a lot more I don't want to get stuck somewhere. Ever see a low boy trailer get stuck on tracks and hit by a train?

A dovetail is a woodworking joint, has nothing to do with a trailer.

I know what you are talking about with wood working but I've always called them that and so do other I know. What do you call them?

MANY people, including the manufacturers of trailers, call it a dovetail. I have seen it called a beavertail also, but dovetail seems more common.
