Thanks Cowdawg . Yes , I'm considering wheels . Just not sure how I want to mount them yet .
Yep Tony , I did the same thing with no luck . I went on Craigslist under Sporting goods . Tons near Pittsburgh , but I waited for a pair closer . Picked them up for $30.00 of a guy down Rt. 8 south .Ok , so I wanted to glue and screw the 2x8 legs on , but the 2x8s wouldn't sit still on the skis . So I predrilled the skis and glued the boards down and clamped them . I'll take the clamps off tomorrow , predrill the wood and countersink the ski bottoms and install 3 - 3 inch screws in each leg .
I was thinking about using one 1/2" bolt on the riser for the cross pieces but now that I seen someone use two bolts I'm wondering which is better. I'm thinking one would be easier to get lined up but two might be stronger. What do you guys think?
Question for the snow skiers out there . What kind of wax and where do you get it for the skis ? We don't have any ski shops in the area . I've used Pledge furniture polish on the kids sleds before and it seemed to work pretty well . Any thoughts ?
I explained that wrong, what I was referring to is the bolt that goes in the notched out part of the riser that the cross piece sits in. I'm wondering if one 1/2" bolt would be good enough or if two smaller ones would be better. I'm going to predrill a hole in the side of the riser and put an eye bolt in it for a tie down for the ratchet strap to hook into.
