new trail-dust trailer deckover-dump trailer, with log rack/white oak load.

are new deckover trailer.
custom made, by trail-dust trailers in the boring, Oregon area.
couldn't find any company that stocks deck over dump trailers. so we had this one custom made.
its a 14k trailer, with the empty log rack its 3,400lbs on trailer tires.
.
we ordered it with no decking and custom milled ourselves true 2" thick boards.
it was 2,500lbs with no log rack or decking on the way home with it new.
goes to show how much additional metal is in those trailers with steel sides. as 14foots are usually around 4,000lbs with no cargo.
ive yet to get a number with just decking and no log rack.
its 8x16 feet. for every foot of depth, its 128 cubic feet. 8x16x4.25 is 544cf or in terms of unstacked wood, just over 3 cords.
or 4.25 cords stacked in.

@@EverythingElliott a few will make lumber, the first load was the good lumber load. Thats the 2nd load.
Probably make 2x4s mostly.
Mabe some 1x somethings.
.
Need to come up with a value, as white oak is something we are not accustom to on the lower Columbia river.
Eventually ill make a little video showing how the log rack works, with no logs on it.
