i was gunna build a 5x8 all aluminum one last summer but i cheaped out. a friend of my dads made one like that its cost approx 4,000 it little spendy but it works slick. very light weight and he made a really big set of skis for it so you can pull it on top of some snow. not really soft stuff but some snow. ill try and get some pics

I just need to put the ball on the back of my sled to test that theory out. My shack is pretty light. 6 1/2 x 10 plus a vee. Early ice I have pulled it with a 125cc honda 4 wheeler. I am planning on getting a larger set of tires for a little more clearance and then make the skis for under the wheels. Infinite amount of snow doubtful. I will tell you the results soon enough. My dad has a grizzly atv I can test it against. I still think tracks on the wheeler is the best route to go. Good luck

Yep, With the heavy snow fall predictions for this storm I was considering running my wheel house back out to the farm. I think it's gonna be a long time before they'll be getting out on the area lakes! If it melts down, it'll also meltdown on the farm so I can go get it again. Too bad, frown everything was looking so promising with the ice formation. Maybe this'll be a season that you can only use the porty. Phred52

Last February I built a shack that was 5x8 and 5.5 feet tall with a 1/2" plywood floor. 1x2's for the wall and ceiling supports, 2x4's under the floor with 2x6's for runners. I wrapped it in tarp glued all the edges down with liquid nails. I cut in a couple of windows and glued on some Plexiglas. I can lift and drag it onto a trailer.
