Who makes the Trailer hitch cap that looks like a SB Ram? I don't have a welder, so making it myself is out of the question.

thanks Tom

Tom, Ralph Corral used to make them. Steve Tapp gave me one he made out of aluminum, he monitors this forum and you may hear from him or send him a PM.

thskeer, I've made my own trailer hitch with all the smallbore animals stacked on top of each other. I bought a blank hitch and a set of 4 animals with no bases off of ebay and proceded to use a metal bonding material from 3M and then painted the whole thing white with some rust inhibiting paint. I'll try and get a pic and post for all to see. First bond the ram to the hitch let sit for 24 to 36 hours then bond the turkey to the ram let sit, next the pig, and finally the chicken. all for under 40 dollars. the animals were the most expensive thing. :D

Most clubs have steel animals they don't use anymore. Seems most have gone to the cast animals. I would think you could buy just one animal and get someone to weld it on.
