Hello,
a semi is only one half without a trailer.

Found this container semi trailer in my grab box. This was once a typical European design with 3 perched axles, single wheels and rather long rear overhang.
This was converted by me to "americanize" this trailer. Now two axles mounted on the very end and have dual wheels.

This was once a conventional trailer with 5 axles from Kibri. A heavy duty with rather small wheels and extra width. It was converted to a semi trailer and got the usual 22.5 wheels.

This was a European semi log trailer with wide spread and steerable axles. Now ist has two fixed axles at the read end.

And adding some details.

There may be a useful logging truck created.
