    Default Skinning my homebuilt trailer - ideas? How did you attach the metal?

    Good morning,

    Looking for ideas and opinions on this please. I am thinking of using 26ga sheet metal for the skin on my pull-behind homebuilt. I guess that's this first thing I'll be looking for opinions on. Has anyone else done that, and how did it work out?
    Most importantly, how did you attach it? Looking for ideas and opinions there. I am looking at using the Loctite Weld Bonding Compound, any experience with that? The frame is steel tubing.
    I suppose I could rivet the skin on ... or am I missing a better way?
    I was hoping to avoid the riveted look.

    What has been used and done on other home-builts?

    Thanks
    Mike
