Finally Finished... Phase One of my Otter Mini Sled Rack. - AltaIce - 01-23-2010 Hi All.... I LOVE my Otter 2 mini Ice sled, and for several reasons... - They way they built it,it is very very strong for it's size. ( very thick bottom) - It can fit in the back of most closed in vehicles.( well small SUV"S now I guess) ( before the rack it was some cars) - It is easy to pull. ( before the Rack and now just as easy after the slides put on the bottom ) - AND the most important thing of all is..... I will never ever will carry anything on my Back again...LOL The rack is even more important now since I bought a 24 lb Ice tent this fall... and it lets me haul other people's stuff now even more..( why should they have to carry there things) I JUST had to make a few changes on it to suit me...  First thing the WIFE SAID when she saw the CAMO DUCT Tape... was .... " Ya know your a Redneck When!....." All my fishing friends said when I pulled out the back of the Small SUV was... " Oh My Gawd " and Laughed...  I have been thinking of this build all summer.. and really wanted to use PVC. When I saw the Rod holder that " TubDude" built and posted for us all. I started on the rod rack ... then I could not stop thinking about more.. PVC for the rack. had some thoughts of it all summer. BUT when I saw pics of the older Sled that Bart built, when a diff style of PVC that gave the courage to try this one.  [signature] Re: [AltaIce] Finally Finished...

Phase One of my Otter Mini Sled Rack. - FOD - 01-23-2010 Looks like your going to have to get a dog sled team or a 4 wheeler to pull everything. Are you taking orders? The whole sled looks well thought out and nicely organized. If I took some pics of my set up everybody would laugh. Its just a sled with a pile of gear strapped down with bungee cords. Yours looks great!![] [signature] Re: [FOD] Finally Finished... Phase One of my Otter Mini Sled Rack. - AltaIce - 01-23-2010 .. [signature] |
