« on: Jul 26, 2007, 04:28 PM »
hi everybody new to this forum, but would like your input on my ideal. first off i'm a old cheap ***** that wants a hardside portable but won't pay too much money on new one. i have a old 4x8 trailer frame i want to start with. my ideal is this i went to the junk yard and asked how much for full size bedliner, he says if you get them 10bucks a piece so i gets me 10 of them for 90 bucks. now i want to put 2" blue board in the middle with some 2'x2' edges.my floor will be 46"widex8' long  16"high.itwill have 18" wings over the tires and 3' foldable sides al made out of bedliner sandwich, the sides might have 1 inch bluebord? and 2' panels for the roof. the ends will fold up. any help you guys got would be very much apprieciated. the roof panels wolud prop up for hunting blind  thanks

  Interesting ideas, jodamax. A portable hardside, is every icefisher's dream! Carefull with the bedliner's, they're at salvage for a reason.
