I went over to friend's shop today and three of us turned an old snowmobile trailer into an ice fishing shack. The plan is to be able to tow it to a lake with a pickup and then tow it out onto the lake with a utility four wheeler.
We ripped off the rotten decking and put it on jack stands.
We built new floors, walls and a roof and it's all bolted right to the trailer. We even built a pointed "prow" on it.
That iron box in the middle of the front is the wood stove. We've got dual slash-cut chrome exhaust tips that we'll be running out through the roof for a chimney. We'd like to burn some trash or something in there on the way to the lake so it looks like we're rollin' coal like a diesel truck, ha ha.
We didn't have enough ear plugs so one guy wore a chainsaw helmet. That's how we do it in Maine.
Me working on getting the roof panels in place.
Fuel
Roof coming along.
We've still got to mount the door, get the wood stove in, build some benches and get some trap doors put in for fishing, but we made great progress today. That's my buddy Dave on the left and a transmission specialist we call Tranny Man in the doorway.
