New home made ice house pictures

[HUMMER 55]

Had a little fun this spring and early summer building this up from scratch, I had no plans, Just a few pic's from last years ice show and I went off those to create it. it is all Aluminum 6' x 10' plus the V front. I spray foamed the inside and under the floor a few weeks ago and finished installing the 6 hole covers and rattle reels. It has 5 LED lights inside, with full LED external lighting for the road. Just thought I'd share some pic's.

Now we just need some ice!!!

Sweeeeeeeet. Nice job. How much coin to that point

[otterman91105]

Looks like you did a nice job. House looks awesome.

[Princeton]

Very nice!

[i'majigger]

Looks like very good craftsmanship but I have to question why you would put the axle on top of the floor. The idea of how you made the axle bracket looks very strong but I would have put it on the bottom side of the floor. I can see that this will sit flat on the ice but I guess I like to have mine blocked up at least 3 or 4 inches just to make sure it does not freeze solid when time to move. Again, great looking build.

kind of like a zack shack. that is going to be one great fishing machine!!! don't get any better then that for mobility, warmth and versatility.

[UKCM]

Love it. Your house is a great size to be a mobile fishing machine. I am jealous. Someday I want a small permanent that is comfortable but yet still portable. Enjoy!!!!

Awesome job that will be perfect for the wheeler. What is the vertical post on the tongue?

[givetoget]

Nice Job

[river rat316]

wheel system looks familiar, I like it, should be a great house

[Tom Buckles]

That's a nice looking house!

[92GSteve]

Took me a while to figure out that second jack but above the tongue but I got it now. Nice engineering.

[Eric_Kruger]

any pictures of how you worked the wheelsets on the outside? I really like this setup!

[hawkeye43]

Looks to be the same parts as on a ridgeline house. I have a 6.5x8, great house to move fast.

[broman]

Nice house, I'm jealous.

Make sure you put your lock on the one door when you're in it to prevent anyone from locking you in.

[HUMMER 55]

Just over 4k finished

[HUMMER 55]

All I got bro....

The quick easy slide lock on the outside towards the rear holds it up off the ground and there is a safety pin that needs to be pulled on inside to allow it pivot as well, So for road travel there's a secondary hold on the axle pivot for any external failure or emergency.

What size welder do you have

I want to do this in future and I have a Hobart 140

Were did you get axles at

NICE JOB

[aczr2k]

I don't think a Hobart 140 will be large enough to weld this, since it is an aluminum frame.

[HUMMER 55]

I have a Hobart 210 welder. found the torsion stub axles online and modified them from there.

[leech~~]

Aren't your axles kind of like the same as used on the Zack Shack? Those seem to pivot the house pretty smooth up and down. Nice Work!

[slammer]

How much does it weigh? Very nice house.

[HUMMER 55]

It weighs 960 pounds after the spray foam and hole covers where installed. (give'r take since it was weighed on an elevator scale)

[MN BassFisher]

Looks awesome!!!

[Gordie]

Very nice, I love the wheel set up.
