Great Shanty, get it!!  Just remember to secure it to the ice when the wind is  blowing.  I almost lost mine once!!!!!

i posted this in the other thread .I've had this shanty for three years . Just went out and measured the middle board that the hinges attach to .
It is 4 " wide . If i were building mine again i would make sure i painted it before i assembled it. I've had no problems with my window's cracking . Instead of just cutting four holes in the floor i cut every corner in an oblong shape .
That way when i get three people in it we can all fish comfortably. the holes measure 27" x 8" .   it also lightened it up considerably. i used 1/2 " plywood for the floor , and
2" x 2" s for the edges . i have never had any problem with it blowing away . but it did take a beating last winter in a nasty wind storm because i left it on the lake and went home . now i at least colapse it before leaving. if
it freezes to the ice . i just take my spud bar and pop it loose. i built a sled out of cross country skiis that works very well . if i could figure out how to post pictures on here i would gladly share them . i also drilled two holes
just inside one of the doors and attach a rope to it for
easy pulling across the lake when there's not much snow on it. on windy days when i'm pulling it i just leave the doors open and the wind blows right thru it. ok i'll
quit blabbing now ......have a good one.

I realize this thread is very old, but I’ve acquired a new in box tent kit. One hitch, there are no directions . Is there any chance someone on this thread has the directions still? Or could take some pictures so I can come up with an idea of what I’m doing. Thanks for looking!!
