Info on fold-up icehouse

[nauticaljohn]

I was wondering if you folks can tell me about the shacks we see on the ice. They are a canvas cover with the ends that fold up and a piece of conduit is inserted betweens the ends to keep it spread apart. I have seen a plastic, corregated, light-weight material used for the ends. Where does a person find that? Thanks NJ

I believe the material that your talking about is used in building green houses. I don't recall what its called though.

You can get it at menards. I've seen it back near the insulation (behind from what I've experienced). I've also seen it out in the unheated but roofed area of the lumberyard.

I have no idea of the durability of it though. In my mind it would be a little flimsy, but who knows.

It's called coroplast. Sign companies might be able to help.
