Here is the trailer, with side mount's to keep the axel from bending under weight.  

Believe it or not, it only weigh's 27 lb's.

 Just ordered a Hime joint, and then the hitch will be finshed.

Man that is awesome! I bike into a couple areas but sure would be nice to have a trailer and custom paint job like this one! That is some great work, very impressive and I'm jealous!

Thank's Eric, I'm already planning to change the wheel's to  16" bike rim's and tire's, and moving the axle forward, to the next tube, to balance the weight better. It also  look's like I'm going to change the hitch to. I'm not liking it, so low to the ground, and the center of gravity seem's to make the bike want to raise up the rear tire , so I'm thinking of removing the hitch set up, and making  a arm come off below the seat, and connect to the trailer, with the hime joint, at the top of the front rail, so that way, the weight is closer to  the same height.
