2010 Fish House Build

[Lip_Ripper Guy]

Do you use regular 3/4" thick t&g paneling or something

Thinner , lighter ? It sure does look nice but must get

Pretty heavy . I also see your thinking about a yetti .

Do you think the aluminum trailer will hold up ?

It is 5/16"...very lightweight.

No go on the Yetti. After having a hydraulic frame, I can't imagine going to a crank. The aluminum frame should be just fine. Voyager/Yetti knows what they are doing.

[Lip_Ripper Guy]

Let me know when you get your new frame, Im right in town and would like to take a look at one of the ice assault frames. they look really nice and wanna see one in person before I look into buying.

End of May is the tentative timeline. I'll start a 2012 post once I pick it up.

Did you get this thing sold Ripper?

[Lip_Ripper Guy]

Not yet. Spent the afternoon yesterday getting her all polished up and ready to go. Down to $8500. You should buy it Ace!

[redrider]

I should have asked but where do you buy your paneling at ?

It looks darn nice in the pics & whomever builds you're cabinets

Does a dam fine job ! 5/16 is that the lighter stuff they sell @

Menards ? Kinda like that stuff for closets & whatnot ?

Yea your houses are kickbut ! But build one 8x18w3-4'v-nose !

I've got a 8x16' that I built . Not near as nice as yours!

But now I've got 3 additions to bring with HAHA ! So I need

More room ! But I've gotten alot of great ideas & knowledge

From this thread . Thanks everybody ! I wish I learned to type !

I'm sure most of you wish the same !!! Lol

You can get the 5/16" tongue and groove at Menards, that's where I've been getting mine.

[Lip_Ripper Guy]

Yep...Menards. If you watch, you'll be able to catch their buy one get one free sale. I haven't seen one for awhile, so I'm hoping there is one coming up soon!

[Mid-Lake Rock]

They had the 5/16 at two for one pricing in August/September of 2010 and 2011.

This is what their yellow looks like. I looks a lot brighter in full sun and on the lake.

That's a great looking house!!!

Hey Lip ripper, what brand & model 12 volt hyd pump do you use in your houses?

[Lip_Ripper Guy]

Haldex 1261096

[redrider]

Thanks I'm thinking about putting hyd on my old house.

Just a few adjustment's & it would work great !

Thanks for posting this, am building a house right now myself and this is a great reference!! Am just about finished with the exterior and am now starting the electric. The electric is much more confusing than I thought. I purchased a "power center" from fish house supply and lets just say it doesn't have very good instructions. Thinking of switching to a system like you said and just have a battery charger plugged in.

If you have questions on the electrical power converter maybe I can help. The instructions or lack of are confusing.
