This would be my choice.  Would work in the shack and the garage for storage.

do you think self tapping screws into the stud would hold it when trailering across the lake? or should I run carriage bolts all the way through the wall from the outside and fasten them on the interior?

actually, now that I think about it. WIth all the vibration driving around I think carriage bolts would be best.....

I'd do carriage bolts with a brace plate on the outside to increase the clamping effect and reduce the possibility of them pulling through if you have to cross a pressure ridge or hit some snow drifts.

Just wondering what the headroom is like in this shack, you have got my wheels turning into making a shack very similar to yours.

If i had to guess i would say 6'6"...maybe less but def over 6 ft.... You dont have to worry about hitting your jog pole on the roof when setting the hook.

FYI if i did it again I would buy a shack with luan walls on the inside to keep it on the lighter side. Next summer I will be tearing out the walls and installing/painting 1/8" luan walls instead of the 3/8" plywood in there now. The thicker plywood is nice for mounting items but luan would save alot of weight and i could work around the mounting issues by stretching a 1x3 of pine between the studs to mount on......

I just finished mine...but I really like the design of this one.   It's a lot like the zack shacks I was looking at at the ice show.  Maybe when I have a few grand burning a hole in my pocket!   Nice job!

FYI... I got a weight of this rig completely finished on a large pallet scale...

#1700 total weight.... Also the total weight on the wheels when trailer is hooked up to the truck is #1440...SO the tounge weight is #260..... Not to bad considering its all steel!!!! ;D

these weights include a LP tank, battery, ect...
