OK I'll do it this way, a little more cumbersome but....

I had a friend draw up plans for a flatbed, and had my local welding shop fab it up, then took it to a refinisher for sandblasting and epoxy paint. Then I installed the 5/4 White oak boards. The LED lights are installed and wired. Now I am fabbing up a hitch that will have the plate holder, and trailer recepticle.

If anyone is interested I'll post the plans or can email them out, no charge.

Anyone that wants the plans, just PM me and I'll send them out. I'm on the road until the weekend and the plans are on the home computer.
I couldn't find what I was looking for so a friend drew them up for free.
I'll just pass the good Karma along.

Thanks for all the great comments!
