Every new LSM trailer purchased get the same treatment IMMEDIATELY

What happens here

Design, construct, and install custom shelving units tailored for specific items like gas cans, an air tank, a weed sprayer backpack, and other fluids or supplies. Critically, the shelves intended for gas cans should incorporate a small "lip" or raised edge at the front to prevent the cans from sliding off and spilling their contents during trailer movement. These shelves are typically built from sturdy materials like plywood or metal to withstand the weight and vibrations of transport.

Goal: Create secure shelving for gas cans, air tanks, and other fluid/supply storage
