He Builds Custom Horse Trailers And Equipment
Jason Gregg has channeled his experience working with steel and aluminum at a local welding shop into a thriving business that serves his passion for draft horses. He built custom draft horse vans as a spare time hobby for 15 years until it grew into a full-time business in 2018. Now his product line includes aluminum show boxes, harness caddies and custom stable equipment.
Gregg says his experience growing up in a family that raised draft horses has given him valuable industry knowledge so he can build exactly what customers want. “I enjoy designing and building custom equipment so much that it seems more like fun than work to me,” Gregg says. Finished rigs have gone to customers in three U.S. states and four Canadian provinces. He designed a custom aluminum harness caddy for a client in Scotland.
Interior stalls on his show trailers have formed and fabricated padded stall dividers, padded walls, sturdy windows and ample ventilation for the animals. Other quality workmanship includes chromed loading ramps, hitch logo inscriptions on stall dividers and the rear trailer bumper, and under-carriage storage for supplies and a generator.
He also designs and builds strong and lightweight clam-shell style wheeled aluminum tack boxes and harness carts. JW Show boxes keep supplies on a handy rolling cart, traveling securely latched together and opening to reveal custom interior finishes and special lighting that provides a beautiful display for the harnesses.
Many of his clients are fellow exhibitors at draft horse shows. He also builds custom stabling equipment along with galvanized feeders for draft horse owners. When not building horse equipment, JW provides welding and fabrication services for area customers, including design and fabrication of flatbed trailers.
