thanks Skeeter, I bid on one last night and forgot about it this morning and missed it !! She will just have to use one of my homemade custom rods instead

They have them on there all of the time, although they are about to stop making them. You should still have the opportunity to pick one up.

Jeff

Update: Here is another one:

Thanks Hockey...in the meantime, I'll keep an eye out and see what I can find as well

On a sadder note, we lost our 15 yr German Shepherd this morning. Due to being very sick and old age the Doc said it was probably best for her and we agreed....R.I.P Trooper, you really were a great pooch

here goes the pics ...

only thing i would change is i would build it out of 5 1/4 thick pine lumber ....3/4 thick is a little weak...or you could make 2 of every piece in 3/4 pine and screw them together...that wud be real strong....hope this helps...oooh yeah... line up the lenght of the jiffy auger before ya eye bolt it to the sled top...so it craddles right in the cut outs...

topher7694 · « **Reply #1001 on:** Oct 09, 2009, 11:07 AM »

thanks!!! I got some time still as I am waiting for my new sled ( upgrading from the lil jet jr...)

holehawg · « **Reply #1002 on:** Oct 09, 2009, 11:10 AM »

topher7694 · « **Reply #1003 on:** Oct 09, 2009, 01:00 PM »

I'll see if the house project goes as planned this weekend, maybe if you want a ride a long buddy for the 17th, I may be able to go/follow

holehawg · « **Reply #1004 on:** Oct 09, 2009, 01:17 PM »

of course if i can wing it your invited to ride with me...just gotta see how all this family stuff plays out...

topher7694 · « **Reply #1005 on:** Oct 09, 2009, 01:25 PM »

ok ! silly question, do you use the stock autolite plug in your jiffy, and what do you run for a ratio and use for oil...this power auger thing is new to me and I gotta keep it for a long time....

holehawg · « **Reply #1006 on:** Oct 09, 2009, 03:12 PM »

hmmmm.. just replaced it with the same one in it (spark plug that is..) as for gas oil i just mixed it like my weed eater / chain saw...lol...i'm not a high tech guy...

I am taking up hunting this year. Pooley was nice enough to take me on a little scouting mission today. We saw some signs of deer and bear. Pretty cool stuff. I havent really ben hunting since me dad used to take me when I was a kid.

mr.clean · « **Reply #1008 on:** Oct 13, 2009, 01:53 AM »

Greetings,
Sure is a lot of sad news in the last few pages. A couple I work with lost their new born infant daughter last week.
Topher did you look at the augers gas cap I know my snow blower has the gasoline's ratio printed on it. Also check the equipment forum a lot of people singing the praises of Amsoil product line. Some members are running a 100 to 1 mixture with no problems. You could also try contacting Jiffy.
Steve
