I purchased a harbor freight trailer to carry my bike and need some type of floor for the trailer. I want that grate style metal floor.
Does anybody know where I can purchase that stuff?

A metal supply shop should have it.

You want 9ga 3/4" expanded metal (not flattened). Good stuff for every project!

Great tip - have you got a feel for the $$ for this stuff? I have a Harbor Freight trailer as well and I want to get rid of the plywood (the trailer itself IMHO is a great value)

I had a hard time finding this stuff localy. The one guy I found has it at $50 for a 4x8 piece then he told me he would have to send me somewhere else to have it sheared into two pieces, as I have a folding trailer. So I figure he might charge me $5 bucks or so to cut it. I can also get pressure treated plywood at Home depot for $35 a sheet.
