  1. thanks for your thoughts. it would cost me around $100-150 just for material not even labour or anything. i may just build one for myself and keep the mould.
  2. i cant seem to post pics on this site, at the bottom there is a link to a pic.
  3. Ok i work at a custom outhouse making shop. we build them and install them. for the interiors we make them fiberglass, almost like a big bathtub. heres the website for the shop http://www.fitzpatrickindustries.com My buddy has this fiberglass sleigh for his sled for ice fishing. It was built by a guy from wawa that made sleighs, canoes, boats, etc. i cant find one for myself so i was thinking of building one like it maybe even make an actual mould of it. once a mould is made we can keep producing them over and over again. and i was thinking theres probably more guys out there that would love to have one. So i talked to my boss and he said there is zero market for them and hes tried to sell them in the past. well that was years ago and this is today and we have a great tool called the internet now. so im checking interest if anyone would like one. the price for one would be close to $300 unless theres tons of customers and we can start pumping them out prices would drop. let me know what you guys think! pic of sleigh http://forums.fishontario.com/thread.jspa?threadID=32663

  10. i heard this past fall a guy shot one up in the aubery falls area that was 150lb. such an awesome animal, they should never be bothered unless they attack you.
  11. im almost done, i'm working the V type thing to hook up to the sled then give it a paint job. i'm building it all with stuff i already had laying around to keep costs low
  12. sweet! bigger then i thought! next weekend i got some trailer reconstruction this past weekend was a sled sleigh for all my gear
  13. thanks alot for the quick response! thanks!
  14. hey guys my buddy has a homemade trailer that his dad built years ago to fit 2 tundras side by side. the tundras are long gone and we have regular width sleds now. they both wont fit side by side. we want to widen it out but dont know what the widest legal width is?
  15. why does a native get first choice? shouldnt everyone these days are equal and be a first come first serve? just my thoughts
  16. i was talking to the new guy at work and he was telling me that his father is a trapper and hes getting sick and can no longer do it anymore so hes giving up his trap line. now im not sure exactly on who get dibs on it after he gives it up but he said that starting now natives get first choice on any open ones. is this true? if it is then thats just retarded! just curious!
  17. troutologist i see your from sault ste. siberia to haha! those tundras are half decent for beaking trail but its no mountain sled. if theres any lakes you can get to in the area let me know i'll blaze in a trail for ya lol. or if you wanna hit up some ice fishing let me know! Gavin
  18. all great stuff so far, make sure theres no cracks in the clutches to, look at the motor and make sure there isnt any oil leaking out anywhere. run it and make sure there isnt any weird noises. bacisally just give it a good look over, if something doesnt appaer to look correct then its probably not. good luck! if you run into problems go to www.dootalk.com its a skidoo forum site, theres some great ppl over there.
  19. just go all out and do the drive to like the chapleau area or somewhere good like that.
  20. rerries has 4sets! awesome! thanks guys! and western made me mad the other day so i'm not going there for a bit. i went in there 3weeks ago and i told them im looking for a hitch for a snowmobile and they told me they havent ordered them for the winter yet so while i was still there the guy called kimpex and ordered 8 of them. he told me come back the following wednesday cause they should be in then. well it turns out i went on a fishing trip and i wasnt able to make it there. so i went the wednesday after which was last wednesday i spoke with the another guy and he said they dont order them till mid december and i was like i was here 2weeks ago and i watched the other guy order them. and the guy goes no he didnt, i know he didnt. and i was like i watched and listen to him order 8 from kimpex. and hes like i can gurantee you that he did not order them. so i was like are you saying that im lying and just making it up!?!and the guys like i know he didnt order those. and i was like well i know im not buying it here and i walked out. i'll give them a couple weeks and i'll go back, i get my vehicle work there done anyways, i wouldnt go anywhere else in town.
  21. my great grand father had the record at one point in time. does anyone have a list of the largest somewhere? my great grandfathers last name was pratt.

  23. t.j quesnel your talking about?
  24. hey guys, i'd like to get a decent pair of snowshoes for this winter but i have no idea what kind or size or anything to get. i want a pair for hiking through the deep snow to remote lakes. i dont know what size range i should be looking for but i weigh 160lb and have a size 9 shoe size. what do you guys recommend? i dont want to spend anymore then $150, the cheaper the better but the quality has to be there. thanks!
  25. thanks for the link wild! i tried calling this morning with no answer, i'll probably just try on monday! and yup im from the sault! i get alot of deals from the states, alot of the time its sad what us canadians pay for things compared to the states! and this area is a great fishing area, i couldnt ask for much better! its a great place to come and visit and enjoy the great outdoors!
