Trailer Frames???

[Go Big Red!]

I have been asked to build a fish house for a school organization.  Few things I need to know first:

Where do I get a good price on trailer frames?  I have looked online at 2 dealers, one in Buffalo and the other in Milaca.  Thoughts on either place?

Materials?  Thinking 2X4, 3/4 treated plywood deck, insulated with one window and door.  What can I use for interior materials?  Exterior?  Roof?

What do I need to do to join the decking and frame to the trailer?  Fasteners needed?

What can this cost say for an 8'? 10'?  12'?

Thanks.

Personally, I'd seriously consider Fish House Supply for nearly all of your needs.  They have almost everything you'll need from trailer frames to heaters, and even interior furnishings.  I realize they are a site sponsor, but that is not the reason why I suggest them.  In fact I brought them here as a site sponsor because of their quality products and reasonable prices.  About the only thing they don't have is the lumber.  But they have the knowledge in what it takes to build a quality long lasting fish house.

Here's the link for their trailers page:  Trailer Frames

Tips on Building Fish Houses: Tips

I know many folks build their stud walls with 2x2's and use 2x4's for corners etc. for strength.  3/4 treated plywood is also the norm.  for most floors.  Some choose to insulate the floor.  I would think that would be the way to go.  Also I have heard of some using rubberized undercoating underneath the floor to seal the underside. 

For exterior I'd go with corrugated steel. 
Roofing could be corrugated steel continued from the walls or rubber roofing.  I've heard good things from both. 

Interior walls, thin plywood would last longer than paneling-as paneling wicks up moisture and will expand. 

As for mounting the frame to the trailer-bolts.  (see their trailer accesory page-all screws and bolts needed are there)

Somewhere here is some good threads on fish houses.  Discussions on what works and what didn't, and some pictures as well.

I can't give you a exact number on the cost of a 8 or 10 footer but a few years ago I built a 8 x 14'er and had 1100 bucks in it with the floor , framed, and sheeted. also had two 50 dollar windows and a free door . I think that total was including the sheet metal roof ?
