This is a badge bit (BB) that is part of the PEP curriculum.  Completing this BB is part of getting the iron badge in Metal Working.

For this BB, you will be making a large trailer with walking suspension!  One example is the Solar Leviathan at Wheaton Labs.

Here is what one might look like:


Minimum Requirements for this BB:
 - must be a large trailer (at least 5' by 10' bed/platform)
 - must have a walking suspension
 - you are building the trailer, not assembling a kit.  Axle, suspension and tongue components may be purchased

To document your completion of the BB, provide the photos or video (<2 min) of the following:
 - The supplies you're starting with
 - Partway through the build
 - The finished large trailer with walking suspension
 
But how did the elephant get like that? What did you do? I think all we can do now is read this tiny ad:
