Very nice. Trailers work great in these applications. The only thing I would suggest is a 45 degree fore and aft brace running high from the front riser to the back riser base...that will take a lot of stress off the risers. There is going to be a lot of dissimilar aero loads on you scaffolding.

Just watch your speed...check the tire and bearing ratings.

Love it!
