This is really close to what I am thinking of putting up along the curved section of my rock retaining wall in my backyard.

Adam said R-Panel so maybe hes talking about the carport and not the pergolas? Seems way to cheap for the pergolas. They'd have over a grand just in materials I think.

About to build myself a welding trailer.

I have a spare engine drive welder, a gas air compressor, big set of oxy/ace bottles, 200' of lead, and a tool box to put on it.

Size is gonna be a 5x10

Bought a 3500# trailer kit from southwest wheel that includes the axle, suspension, lights, coupler, Jack, wheels/tires etc basically everything you need expect the frame to build a trailer for $400 OTD.

Trailer frame is gonna be 6x4 rectangle tube drop I have laying around and a 1/8" plate steel deck.

Just need to decide how to want to position everything. About to go outside and start welding it up
