How many holes can I cut in my trailer?
We got a home built trailer from family. It is about 15' long, constructed of 1/4" steel and angle iron on the sides with 2x6 planks in the middle. (was made to carry a car in the 90s). It is -heavy as fuck-. How many holes can I safely cut in steel to lighten the load but maintain structural integrity? My inspiration for this is the trailer my step-dad built when I was a kid, made out of surplus Marston mat submitted by /u/xixoxixa [link] [comments]
