The idea with Basic Trailer Project is that you can combine standard parts to make your
own trailer design. It is built with screws and nuts so you can change, upgrade, repair
or take it apart and build something else.
Twist and turn the objects so that the print fits you and your printer.
Here we have one type of suspension, leaf spring.
You can have one or several axles.
For one axle use front and rear spring mount.
For two or more axles add middle spring mount.
Drill template also has holes for fenders.
