We have an old trailer house frame we cut down and added two T uprights on it. One front one back. Then we just throw a tow strap around each end. Works great. We kept all 3 axels on in just in case we ever had a flat tire. Just take it off and the others will hold it up long enough to get the bad one fixed. Then there isn't so much weight on the tounge so we don't even have a jack on it! Couple pieces of pipe and some channel iron and you will have a cheap long last trailer!

Same design just not as pretty and we have 3 axels. Don't need them that's for sure but I know I have hooked up to it in the spring and had flat tires and I just kept on a trucking!

We put racks on both sides of an old portable WW loading chute.    It works for us.

our fairboard made one very similar to the Stronghold.They used an old haywagon running gear for the trailer part.  Works quite well.

our homemade one is also very similar to stronghold's, tandem axles and longer racks on ours though, we can load 60 panels on ours, enough for a very elaborate set of portable pens, the hardest part is unloading the danged things though because I usually get stuck alone doing that
