Fastest Hardside Folding Shanty
« on: Dec 21, 2010, 08:00 AM »
This is a Michiana Shanty. It is a two man or three if your willing. I made this shanty years ago before I had the digital equipment to share my ideas.  So I drug it out of the barn because a few guys were confused on how it folded. I forgot how easy I could move it around by myself because I don't think I used it at all last season because I was using my new Michiana Shanty 2. I may have to rethink my fishing this year and take it out just for old time sake.

I have no idea? I can pick the whole thing up by myself. If I had to guess it may be two hundred pounds?

Ok, I'm askin, I'm askin.... ;D

That thing is slick - I take it that the hole in the front is a bucket holder? That thing would work great with my kids - just the right size for them....

What an ingenious idea! Plans, materials list, videos, pictures anything that would help a perspective builder would help.

If you can come up with any type of a plan I would be up to the build.
The Materials have to be on the lite side but I can see it working great.

I tried fishing outside over the weekend and I hated it. Do you think I am spoiled?

And yes! I have been married over 25 years.
