Very nice! I wish I had a dedicated lake I fished. The amount of money you have into it, it only makes sense.

Well I just picked up the Rubber membrane for the roof. I will post pictures as I am doing the install. God I hate contact cement.

Nice looking skid house! Here's to hoping the fish bite good for you.

Thanks, thinking about building another one yet this fall

Well the Rubber is done. I got the membrane from a local construction company, incidently it was one that i previously worked for. The owner said it was 11 x 7 but after i layed it out it was 20 x 10. Oh well time to cut it down.

After dry fitting it I pulled back one half of it

Then I Smeared the Adhesive on the plywood and the back side of the rubber.

After waiting a 20 minutes for the glue to dry, I reinstalled the rubber making sure of no Air bubbles .

Well now that the roof is complete i only have one or two last modifications (tow hitch, Propane lines, and a few accessories) left before i load it to get it weighed. Any guesses what this will end up being?

That rubber roof is definitely worth all the stink of the contact cement for sure. I'm going to guess your final weight around 250 to 350 pounds.

My guess is 400 lbs. I've been wrong before but...

Cfilbert · « **Reply #41 on:** Aug 04, 2014, 08:12 PM »

I'm hoping its that light

Now bring on the ice, hey?

icefisher-45 · « **Reply #43 on:** Aug 10, 2014, 07:47 AM »

That ice house looks great.

Cfilbert · « **Reply #44 on:** Aug 10, 2014, 09:30 AM »

Thanks. Have not had much time to work on it. Did get some metal to fabricate the hitch system.

Cfilbert · « **Reply #45 on:** Aug 20, 2014, 09:28 AM »

Thanks for all of the input. Last thing though. Is there anything that I seem to be missing. Installed CO Detector, Fire extinguisher, shelves for the Vex, Drink holders and name, address, and phone number installed on outside. What else would you guys install/build into this shack. I will be loading this up next week and running it down to the local scales to get weighed but would like to be considered finished when i go and offload it. so let me know.

Thanks

Any new pictures of the finished interior / exterior ? Lighting? Any reflective tape on the exterior? heat source?

just_a_beer_man · « **Reply #47 on:** Aug 20, 2014, 03:48 PM »

That was my only question too is heat source. Other than that looking great.!

Cfilbert · « **Reply #48 on:** Aug 20, 2014, 03:59 PM »

I have a Coleman two burner cookstove for the heat/cooking. I put 8 reflectors 1"x10" on all four corners. Is the Cook stove going to be good enough or should I figure putting my Big buddy heater in it?

just_a_beer_man · « **Reply #49 on:** Aug 20, 2014, 04:23 PM »

Think you might want to think about putting it in. Don't know if that coleman will heat it the way you want but that Big Buddy will do the job.

From your list you have everything covered.
