Tips and Tricks of flatbedding

@ShooterK2 has an interesting set up for small corner protectors his boss built.

 

Here ya go:

 

Thats pretty sexy. Same idea as MJs for the large ones. Any ideas on the metal corners?

But thank you, I appreciate the effort Nice to see people thinking

 

For metal corner protectors, what comes to my mind is to cut a base plate like Shooter's there to the right size, put a stack of the corners on it, and then put probably 4 rods, maybe 3, depending on the exact shape of the corners, so that they are contained within.
You could even weld one of the corner protectors down to the base plate if they weren't stable or something.

 

Can you post a pic of the metal protectors you have.

 

I've got two different styles, but they're basically the same.

 

I think I'd drill a hole in them on the outer edge so you can slide the onto something.

 

If I went to all new ones like the shiny ones, you're right, drill the holes out to 1/2" and do like shooter posted.Use 3/8" rod for the uprights and away you go. No more than a couple hours and it would look nice and clean too.

Ok thanks, I've always hated messy boxes. Even for a company driver, you could make 1 stand of plastic corners and one of metals, with 12-16 on each. As long as they fit the standard box on a trailer. Move companies, take your stuff with you. @ShooterK2 any issues with it falling over on you?

 

@MJ1657 I don't remember who posted it. I'm not re-reading 56 pages. But I had two shelves made up for my tool box, in the middle, the shinier steel. I'm giving you the credit and the thanks, but it could be misplaced. Much more organized and a much better use of space.

 

Yep I posted pics of mine.

Nice work there.
