    Bicycle Trailer/Cot - What Materials?

    Just came up with a real quick sketch. The dimensions are very subject to change, since I don't have any of it yet. I can add more bracing if needed, and may forgo side outlet elbows in favor of bends. I would get rid of the tees, but don't have a welder. I thought about something like...

I know the bar will have 4 lights, but I haven't decided on which lights I'm going to use. I am hoping for an equation I could...
