I have both volume 1 and 2 of this book. I highly recommend Volume 2 [ame="http://www.amazon.com/Trailers-Design-Build-Volume-Structure/dp/0914483323"]How to Design and Build Trailers[/ame]I is quite technical but covers all the bases for understanding how to make a trailer and the forces placed upon them..Volume 1 is more of a general knowledge book and really does not give any specifics for actual design.I got mine years ago from Northern but it seems to be out of print now http://reviews.northerntool.com/0394...rating&dir=ascTiger Sales: AHP Distributor www.tigersalesco.comAHP200x; AHP 160ST; MM350P, Spoolmatic 30A; Everlast PowerTig 185; Thermal Dynamics 60i plasma.

It's your duty to determine the right one.Hobart Handler 210Airco 225 Amp MSM Stinger
