Yeah we still have a good month before the lake is ready for the shack probably get it out there first week of december I would think. The hardest part is done with the frame only because we wanted to make sure our welds were done well before we started framing.

Finally got the chance to do some more work on the shack/blind we finished welding the frame. We installed the flooring and have the bottom plates for the walls in place. Will post pics soon. Hope we can get the walls up and in place over this next week.

here are some more pictures. Hope to get to work on it some more next week. My brother works shift work so have to wait for his days off. Gives me more time for hunting though:thumbsup:

Our plan for the the ice shack is that we are going to have corner jacks on all 4 corners. Once on the ice jack it up and remove 2 pins from each side of the leaf springs remove entire axle. Then lower jacks down on to blocks to keep shack from freezing to ice. The total distance off the ice...

So after playing with this motor for the last few nights. I finally got it running. And what was the issue..... faulty kill switch wish I would have checked that first lol. Here is a Pic of the Engine still in the sled.

Sorry I don't have any pictures up yet of the concept or beginning of the build. Going to the ATV graveyard tonight to see if I can get the Jag 3000 running. Will post pics tonight or tomorrow.

see that is the best part it is free for me to take. So not to worried if I have to put a little bit into the motor. I planned on cleaning the carb and doing a compression test to start with.

We got the whole sled. We are picking it up on the weekend. I went lastnight to take a look at it, couldnt get it to start but its been sitting for a long time the guy said. It does pull easy and cycles but does not fire up. So will have my work cut out there I think.

fantastic news going to pick up our steel next week got what I think is a "steel" of a deal sorry couldn't resist the pun. 1"x1" .083 for 69 cents/foot. Also have got a new used engine for free a 340cc from an arctic cat 3000

I completely agree lol have been looking through on some of his builds. and Mystery has some mad skills.

I wish I could find one that cheap around here lol. Almost bought whole sled for 150 but buddy sold it on me the day i went to pick it up. Biggest waste of $40 of fuel.

Thanks for the advice. Was looking at possibly getting a 440 from a sled just worried that it being air cooled it would burn out do to lack of suffice coolign
