Using my boat as a trailer

A Myark trailer speed barge with a simple plug in wheel system,

 

Seems like the weight of the trailer has to be added to the boat's structure. Also, there is the extra hassle of taking wheels and suspension on and off. Thirdly, there is the hassle of getting a boat license and trailer registration for the same object. It would have to carry a VIN and a HIN.

 

Why won't myark say how much the titanium parts cost.

 

This is the best one I have seen of yours. But have you ever tried to register one in australia. You have to get engineers certificates and meet adr guidelines.

 

How much does it cost to make these parts out of titanium. ???????????..

 

Do you want to know the raw material cost per pound for titanium or the cost to make finished titanium parts? That would depend on how many units I'm sure with a huge difference between 1 set or 1000 of the same part.

 

An example of my price for a Limited Edition 220mm long X 5/16" thick ratcheting wrench, nut sizes are, 19mm and 17mm, 3/4" and 5/8", GR 5 Titanium known as Ti6Al4V manufactured with EDM wire cut.
Plus a Limited Edition 160mm long X 1/4" thick ratcheting wrench, nut sizes are, 14mm and 12mm, GR 5 Titanium known as Ti6Al4V manufactured with EDM wire cut.
Plus a Limited Edition 115mm long X 1/4" thick ratcheting wrench, nut sizes are, 10mm and 8mm, 3/8" and 5/16", GR 5 Titanium known as Ti6Al4V manufactured with EDM wire cut,

Complete price for all three ratcheting wrenches I designed and machined I sell for $47 USD

I have not ground the surface and deliberately left the titanium raw surface plate look, polishing titanium scratches later and shot blast it looks like its been casted and not high quality machined.

 

Myark,

Are you recycling Soviet boomer pressure hulls?

A set of 3 wrenches in Chrome Vanadium Steel sells for about $ 8.00 for a brand name like Crafstman and $4.00 for a no-name. Myark's titanium wrenches, which are no-name, are about 22 times more expensive in titanium.

 

Another titanium style of the Myark wrench

 

This is one of my early chrome molybdenum design Myark ratcheting pipe and nut wrench sets I did sell for $12 each set of four wrenches including chain attachments.

 

I would like to see a price quote for some of Myark's products delivered to Iowa USA. I don't have any need for Titanium wrenches but would like to see some prices on the stub axles and some of the boat barges. Myark I can see that you have some very Ingenious products and I can see that you are a person who thinks outside the box. Don't listen to the nay sayers.

 

Get your facts right mate. We are allowed to ask questions aren't we.

 

I'm pretty sure if you turned up at a blue slip mechanic to get one registered in Aus they'd call RMS (in NSW at least) for some closer scrutiny as being "novel" or similar & not fitting a standard catagory.
I've built/assisted in the construction of a couple of trailers regoed as Home built, pretty straightforward unless it's changed in the last year or so.

The last trailer I helped with was for my sons HSC project, this got inspected at home by an RMS inspector, who came away very impressed & no probs for rego, his trailer was a Flat bed & designed as the basis for a tear drop camper pod with legs & using jocky wheel capability to self load & unload- similar was indicated for self load/unload for small vessel/box for rubbish/ ramps for motor bikes... so versatility can be good but we're used to that with land vehicles.

How are the rules there about having numbers as a trailer and numbers as a boat?
