Thumbs up

I looked at the 1st pic & thought, "Wow! Not much room in there!"
Then I looked at the rest of the pics & realized it opened up...
Looks like a pretty sweet setup; nicely done!

thought the same as Bob, have to be pretty short to fit. Looks great, should be comfortable too. dont forget anchors, or you might visit Oz

That is just like the one my dad had when I grew up only dif is he put it on skis so he could pull it behind the skidoo.

Is that a home made heater? If so how is it made.. If not where did you get it I need one for my shack

Cool shack I remember it being warm as heck and lots of room for 3 people

Nice hut. I have the same one. You should go buy four used skis and screw them to the outer two runners. It makes a huge difference when you are pulling around. Also a rope through the runners as well. Great for pulling. Just my opinion. Have a great year on the hard water!!!

I have one just like yours and it works great. How did you vent the wood stove pipe? Is it going thru the plastic?

Its made to go in any truck box. I cut down on the material to lighten it up a little. I guess it weighs around 100lbs,and I can load and uload it by myself with a little work.I also mounted a winch in my truck box to pull it in.Once its on the ice it move pretty easy. My buddy has had one for years and it just makes your day so much more enjoyable.

Sweet shack, I like how you can lie down for a siesta if the whikkey takes hold.

That is a wood burning stove from princess auto. 139 bucks if I remember correctly.
