Denny, I've been trailering on this for over 20 years. The reason it doesn't dent the main fuse tube is because the trailer is a single axle and has enough cushion to absorb the bumps in the road. This design would not work for a large 2-axle trailer and would dent the tube. I know this as it happened to a friend of mine. The pedestal support is 6" X 1" with carpet remnant for the tube.

Ralph,
Enjoy seeing someone who thinks outside the box!!! Two many Nay
sayer's out there. I would think 20 years of trailering would be enough
to convince most anyone, but then again!!! I was told I would need a
trailer to haul my FireFly a mile to my airstrip, but decided that was
too much trouble loading and unloading. So, I worked up a a tow bar to
be able to tow it behind my car on it's main gear to my field. Been
doing it for ten years so far. Still would love to have a hanger to
avoid unfolding and folding every time I fly, but for now it's a solution.
