6'x8' Tip Down Shack

Uncle Al:
I've had thoughts of building a tip down, big enough to put my quad inside , then use it to pull out on the ice.

I’ve had this idea myself. But I found building it strong enough to hold an atv had made it difficult to flip. And then I found an atv had trouble pulling it in snow.

Uncle Al:
I think it could be done. Using a old boat trailer you could pick it up and pull it down with the quad. Build some ski's to slide under the wheels when you go on the ice. There's ways to do it. Take a little time to think it out, build a little bit, try it out. Have fun with the build.

Joefixit:
I didn’t mean to discourage a build. You are right it can be done. Using the atv is how I have to tip mine. Which isn’t a big deal but before I built I was expecting to be a fast procedure and that I would move multiple times a day to stay on fish. But I find it more a pain to move than a skid shack and am starting to think about different shack styles.

Uncle Al:
Joe, you're not discouraging me to build one of these, I think it's a great idea, and glad to see that others are doing it.
