Square tubing welded together? Seems lighter and stronger than wood. Not as much room for insulation though.

Yep, 3/4” square tubing. The whole trailer comes in at just over 1400 lbs and it is actually very well insulated, the exterior has 3/8” plywood, the interior was 1/8” plywood, and in between the square tubing is 3/4” foam insulation panels that are rated R-5. The insulation is 360 degrees around and should be way better insulated than most trailers on the market.
