Brand new costume ice house build! Let’s go!
I have a Ridgeline Run & Gun 6x10 that goes down the highway like a shopping cart with the one bad caster. Excited to see what's next. Much love and support from an outdoorsman and appreciative fellow craftsman in the trades....tileguy307
Looking good!!
Thing is looking awesome! can’t wait to see what the finished product looks like
solid work cant wait to see the finished product. cheers.
Love the video. Looking forward to the upcoming content.
Wait, so that's just foam backer board, right? The stuff with the glass facing? If so, that fiberglass dust is no joke. I've used it before, but have always used a decent mask with that stuff. I hated that itching, too. Also, you can get it in 4' x 8' sheets instead of that 3' x 5' so you can use it with 16OC studs. Kinda Looks like you may have used drywall screws that punched through the facing around the shell. You can use large head backer board screws that can prevent that, but will still countersink enough for the caulking overtop. And your caulking looks like it's clear. If it's silicone caulking, I've never had luck with anything actually sticking to that stuff once it goes on. I didn't use the stuff that's recommended to use with those polyiso boards since it's pretty pricey. I've used the PL stuff and seemed to work alright.
Yep that’s what we used. I use that material a lot when I do custom tile showers so I’m very familiar with it, as I’ve done 30+ showers with it, it is a little itchy but sooooo much better than backerboard. I was talking with the company about getting my hands on 4x8 sheets but there was no distributors in my area that carried that size. Stay tuned though, we’re working on collaborating with them to get larger panels to stock directly! Thanks for watching. 🤘🏻🤘🏻
You guys are BADASSES 💪🏻💪🏻
Cant wait to see more! I will be ordering a trailer in the spring and want to know about that exterior sheeting!
Good to saw your channel.
I approve this message…
I think that I’m more excited about the build than you guys are about the outcome! I can’t wait!!
Family concern would be fire escape with only one door. Looks great gonna use some ideas keep rocking.
Very good point!! Customer wanted all the windows the same size, so we did what he asked. For the giveaway fish house that we’re building next for one of you guys we will have another exit. Thanks for watching!
Looks good man. I see that you attached the 3/4” plywood with self tapping screws. But what did you use to fasten the walls down to the plywood/frame?
Looked pretty nice going through the parade last night! 👌
Thank you! 🙌🏻🙌🏻❤️
The door is on the wrong side and opens the wrong way. Cool project!!
Unfortunately it was the only way to give the floor plan the customer wanted, and the door he wanted, they only make them right hand swing. We lucked out though because the power awning arm comes down right by the door so there’s no way for the wind to even catch it while traveling. Excited to show you guys the progress, it’s looking sick! Thanks for watching man!
Watched this for inspiration for my fish house what is that material you used for the outer walls
Looking good so far, just an fyi your door hinged that direction is a wind catch if not latched properly. Just my opinion from my own experiences with those doors.
Thanks for watching man! That’s a good point. It was supposed to be on the other side when we ordered it, but the company that built the frame put the tank mounts on the other side than we had planned, so we had to switch the kitchen around to the other side (for gas lines), and then the door had to be flip flopped as well. I never thought about the wind catching it, so I’ll see if they make a blacked out door that swings the other way. Thanks brother. 🙌🏻
Looks great. I hope to build something similar in the next few years. Curious how u intend to insulated the floor? Maybe i missed it lol
As far as 2x2 i disagree that its not strong enough basically every mobile made before 1990 was built with 2x2. Insulation is the issue the extra 1 inch will make your shack much warmer. I built my ice house out of 2x2 with overhead door panels as the outside sheathing and Insulation plus i put pink foam on the inside with a grand total of r32. I used a 20 000 btu rv furnace. Super warm. But one mistake i made was i used panel board like old house trailers have, and it got bubbly in the summer from expansion. Next time ill use either tounge and grove or good one side plywood. My 6x12 trailer has a total gvw 1450lbs. I should mention that those door panels are 100% made in Alberta and built for northern Alberta winters. Far superior to anything made anywhere else.
That’s fair too! As far as insulation for floor, we will be having it spray foamed. Everything will be spray foam all the way around. Should be sick. 🤘🏻
Block and Tackle boys
Yall need some sort of a lift!
What do you think about using no plywood and just polebarn siding on the outside for walls?
That would probably work, but who knows how long it would hold up. Most manufacturers don’t sheet their walls at all and just tack siding right to the studs, and we all know how well that holds up after 5-6 years of bouncing down the road, and being raised/dropped 1000 times in real world environments.
I'd buy a Hoot's House.
What material is the shell sheeting?
I can’t say yet brother, working on a collaboration with that company to lead the industry with that material. I’ll explain it when it’s time. 🤘🏻🇺🇸
Can you tell us about the trailer, where you got it.
Yes! It’s a Gen4 Series hydraulic frame from GS-Trailers out of Watertown South Dakota. Talk to Bruce!
This is the question I wanted an answer to as well. I live an hour from there. Dialing Bruce’s number now!
Where you located ?
Northern MN!
When Is the next Ice house video coming?
Currently editing episode 2 right now brother! Should be up in about 2 weeks.
