If you are going to live in a cold climate, might as well find a way to have fun in it.

What a cool gentleman, and brilliant too.

A couple of neat homemade inventions.

It was nice to listen to that old guy talk about something that was fun and interesting for him. The Ice Shack is a neat creation, but it almost looks top=heavy. Makes me wonder if it could withstand those strong Minnesota winds.
If he could get porta-potty on in that little house, he’e have it made.

I wish I had his building skills.

[Larry Lucido]

Maybe it's headed here?

[TurboZamboni]

It’s weighted down at the base by the motor and drivetrain.

Good for him, he’s a clever old boy with probably a lifetime of accumulated mechanical aptitude.

You gotta love guys like this. Salt of the earth. My son loves ice fishing - sure could use one of these!
