Hi All,
I have a question. Recently I bought a metal frame / axel that serves as the base for a trailer. All I have to do is put on a floor and sides.
I plan to use plywood for the floor and sides, with 2x4's for bracing the sides and corners. I plan to paint everything, top and bottom prior to bolting it to the trailer. When not in use the trailer will sit outside. No room in the carport :( .
My question: Since I plan on painting, do I need to go to the extra expense of purchasing pressure treated lumber, or will standard lumber hold up fine since it will be painted?
I'd appreciate any suggestions, especially from those who have done something similar.
Thanks!
