Nice work my man.

That is sweet

I like that it holds the auger and hut on the side, very cool.

That is SWEET! Wish I was handy enough to do it. I’m jealous

That’s is a neat deal. Now take that back to your shop and make few more to sell.A Little cash on the side would be nice.?? …rrr

Thx fellas, Randy I guess one could possibly find the time to make another, I built it on a spur of the moment thing but do have a rough blue print with dimensions.

I would like to give it a true test and make sure it holds up to my needs, also in design I figured in the fact I can fit my otter lodge on it as well if needed in that case all items would fit into the tub.

Very nice, does it break down so that the full size is not taking up room? I’m thinking that this would be perfect for my lodge as well, it would get it raised up just enough in the back of my truck so the tailgate will close easier, have to slam it shut now.

Maybe make it high enough that my auger will slide underneath it? Are the skis short enough so that they do not add any length to the lodge?

Please send me the blue print if you can, [email protected]

Is it all flat bar stock except for the legs? Maybe make it all out of square tube stock?

Awesome unit. Love it!!

That looks like an awesome unit and I am sure light weight with being made from the aluminum which is the critical component.

Good luck with it and let us know how it works for you.

Posting pictures of that unit on here looks like it will make you lots of new “friends”.

I think I’ll be building one this week. Yours is a little out of my skill level. Looks good!

Icennutz, it doesn’t break down, but designed to slide into my truck bed using ramps I built with small sled attached and all items stay put nothing to remove or taken off, all aluminum bar stock except legs are hollow square tubing the whole sled uncluding camo sled weighs 22 lbs without gear…blue print is available but u need to keep mind what sled and gear u need for what fits u.

dang that is slick!

What size Jetsled did you use?

Jet sled 24″ X 54″ 11 lbs

Awesome! Built mine yesterday, though not nearly so slick looking as yours!

Very nice.
