Finished up my ice fishing rig. Been working on it as a winter project. Had to be sanded & painted. Finally took it for a test run yesterday. Everything worked fine, but the fish weren't biting. Got one nice Bluegill.

Holy Cow It's Mike Maveal! Been a long time since I heard from you!
Finished up these last night for a customer of mine. I do all the woodwork as well as the skull cleaning, shaping, and mounting. I don't do near as many as I used to (which sometimes is a good thing).

Nice Larry. Thinking I may need to start on one of those soon.

Unapplied biblical truth is like unapplied paint...how many gallons do you have sittin' around? U.D.
Nice setup Larry. I always like the runners on sleds. Way better than the old plastic jobs. Looks like a mini dog sled. I'll bet the grandkids wouldn't mind a ride in it

On the subject of projects, has anyone done a floor covering with the vinyl floor cover? I have a bad spot on my floor, so I am thinking of replacing carpet with the marine vinyl product.
Nice job Larry, that could be used for so many things.
I've done the vinyl job. Make sure you clean the surface really well and use a good adhesive. I spread it on both sides then wait till it is tacky to put it down. Use more than one person, stretch it when putting it in to avoid creases. Use a roller to ensure contact and get the bubbles out. Make your pieces oversized and trim them afterwards.
It's a nice sled but the shanty is too small. There's no storage in it. I used it twice and I bought a new one yesterday. We bought a Shappell FX 200 it has a huge sled with enough room for anything & everything. The other one is also a Shappell 2000 we got it new for $249 and I will take $150 if anyone's interested. It has the skis on the bottom.
