pxtyson Posted November 26, 2009 Report Share Posted November 26, 2009 I built the front box last winter but never had the time to paint it. Just gave it a coat of primer and went fishing. This fall I spent a bit of time cutting and painting in the garage. Have a look LAST YEAR FRONT BOX JUST BUILT THIS YEAR PAINTED I also needed a new back seat with some function. Where to put the GAS AUGER? Ihh its cold out the so I also wanted to bring out a propane tank and started last year bringing a 20lb. I went smaller with a 5lb this year and where the 20lb went I will now put my bucket Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeorgeJ Posted November 26, 2009 Report Share Posted November 26, 2009 looks great, my only thought and not a criticism is that you are carrying a lot of weight up high so be careful for uneven ice, again nice job. Here is what I'm setting up for ice this year I just got it, has tracks too. Someone suggested tracks for your ATV that really would make it an ultimate ice fishing machine. Have fun!

GeorgeJ Posted November 26, 2009 Report Share Posted November 26, 2009 pxtyson I think it be a great idea to see other ice fishing rigs, I know I got a couple ideas just from seeing your set up. I'm not sure that would be a high jack of your thread so maybe a new one could be started if there is interest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have used the front box all last season just never had the time to paint it. There is really no off balance issues with it, the only thing is it limits the view of the front tires when approaching obstacles The nice thing is that if it where to ever go thru the ice the front box is water tight and will keep it afloat, or at least I hope.

pxtyson Posted November 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2009 That's crazy man.. thats craftsmanship right there, nice clean work man.. I need something like that for the sled. I am a tool and die maker by trade and only do wood work as a hobby. If you look in the background of some of the pics there is a really big cabinet, that was my summer project. cost a fortune in plywood and hardware but it is my nicest toolbox ever. Being a tool maker perfection is key and that carries over into my wood work which at times can be a little frustrating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I made this small Muskoka chair for my little cousin in Grade 11 woodshop, it was so hard to make everything perfect, but it still turned out great and I am very proud of it. Wish I had a picture to post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are looking really nice. I have yet to get into fine carpentry, apart from some fish tank stands and tv stand. I am waiting until I move next summer to upgrade to some larger equiptment and then try my hands at some stuff like you are building. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
