Building a trail trimming trailer
Building a trailer with blades on it for trimming branchs on road sides, then towing it with a UTV down trails.

Your CAD (cardboard aided design) and manual plasma table work is impressive.
also on 17:52, you can actually see the MTC (manual tools changer) in action
CAD=cardboard aided design 😁😁
Go Binky!
Could not have said it better🤣

Hey Andrew, what about setting a couple suitcase weights over the wheels on top of the frame to give it a lower center of gravity? That should also help with getting the leaf springs to absorb some of the bumps, instead of them causing the whole rig to hop with every little rock or hole. With all that weight of the arms outside the width of the wheels, she teetered a little, but was still a super design. “Trail Blazer 2.0” Nice work!
@lugoismad the jumping helps it self clean
@wooly1286 In my new JD tractor they put Beet Juice. It won’t freeze, that’s what I was told.
I was thinking about one of those concrete blocks 2’H x 2’W x 3′ L (Half Block) Weight: Approx. 1,800 lbs and they have a hook on top to lift it on trailer.
Will have to be mindful that he’s also towing this with a side by side. Most of them (like the heavy duty diesel ones) have a trailer GVWR of around 1,500lbs. Won’t be able to add too much ballast to his rig.
I would also suggest adding a spare tire for additional weight and possibly angle in the corners to help keep from catching a tree trunk when tilted.
damn, another 40min just went by… i love how you engineer stuff too, you take your idea and then proceed to beat the crap out of it until something breaks and then make that part stronger until you have a working piece of equipment! its great seeing some real engineering
I think you need to name this thing a “TRAIL SHARK.” It is totally awesome! Proof of concept – accomplished – and then some.
I love now Andrew really goes for it during his testing …
This man loves his trails.
He was the “The boy with his toys” that grew up and now he is “The Man and his machines “.
The only difference between men and boys, is the price of their toys
@Glen Atchison You said it.

I never imagined I’d see a slow moving vehicle sign on anything driven or towed by you Andrew 🙂
Nice build 👍🏻
Stacey David is the man. “Trucks” was a cool show.
Loved the show “Trucks”
Better suspension, wider axle and maybe more weight?
As you were making it I was certain this would be useless, but it’s a lot more effective than I expected.
