We bought our first ever permanent ice shack! We plan on fixing it up a little. Thanks for watching:)
A trailer wiring harness will kit will have everything you need to redo the lights. It is all color coded and extremely easy to follow. Will enjoy the build for sure.
I've had permanent houses for 20 years. Shelves are key I'd put one about a foot down from the ceiling everywhere you can, replace the one above the heater with one that isn't solid so heat can go through it for drying stuff(gloves socks ect.). I'd put carpet on the floor, it dries nice and won't be slippery when wet. I could go on and on but you can't have to many shelves. Make sure they're high enough so drunks don't hit their head. A solar powered motion light outside the door is really nice every time you open the door it comes on. Like 25 bucks at Menards and lasts many years.
Really appreciate it! Thank you!
This man's been there done that.
@@nolanschmidt6815 ong
@@MinnDakOutdoorsonly thing I would disagree with is the carpet. I’ve had carpet for 15 years and that shit gets smelly IMO. Otherwise, you can’t have enough shelves!
Looks like Jeffery dahmer would be cozy in that hot box “relax I just wanna drill a few holes” 😂 can’t wait to see the remodel! Paint that wood panel because rn it’s just missing the casting couch 🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 💀
Indoor/outdoor carpet FTW! But whatever you do, pull the hole covers off and put flooring to the cutout in the flood then re install the hole covers👍🏼 been waiting for this haha.
Bet!!! Thank you!
Name it the MINNDAK SHACK !
Congrats guys love the content
Thank you!
Second bunk in the back, add another set of boards to hold it and just move it back to the top when not in use
insulated peel and stick flooring wood pattern all over!!!!!! for more insulation!!Remove the lights and go with solar led lights and rope lights. fans are probably solar, get another solar panel and sink them to 2 batteries. Add another window to the back and get a trailer light hook up and splice it into the light system for the trailer.
Ayyee appreciate it!
Hermet should be the name! Congratulations boys
That’s a great name!
I've never really been the one to comment on videos of people I subscribe to but you guys are hands down in my top 3 favs and this is so sick. Pumped for you guys!
Thank you! Appreciate it so much!
Call it "The Lead Sled" nice job guys, i like that you went this route and showed people what guys without big budgets can do.
Fire extinguisher holders are for rods and/ or tip ups! Rubber straps just go over the top
Congrats on the shack, I’m looking forward to the remodelling videos…for safety add reflective stickers all around the outside so people on the snowmobiles can see them at night time.
👍👍👍👍
I think you should definitely hang another bed at the other end. But definitely make sure it’s high enough to fit a cot under for a 4th person. Benches that fold up positioned by each hole. Bigger counter top that folds up as well for sick catch and cooks. This series is going to be epic. Looking forward to it!
Congrats on your first ice house! Just started watching your guys videos, you're putting out some nice ones. Reading the comments there's been some pretty good ideas. I like your idea of waterproof vinyl flooring. Lots of fish houses have wood walls and they last for years. Walls can always be painted, you could cover them with cool stickers or whatever. Your heater is a non vented propane heater. They are relatively safe but be sure your CO detector is working properly. They let a lot of moisture into the house so sometimes in colder weather your door and windows will frost or freeze up. If you sleep in it be sure to leave window cracked for some fresh air.
Someone recommended replacing the heater with a forced air style. I disagree, those types of heaters are very hard on batteries you would have to run the generator quite frequently if not all the time. I would recommend a vented type wall heater. Don't need any power and all the harmful fumes are vented outside. I've been researching for when I get my permanent house build going. Guys are using PC fans for moving air around the shack, low power draw and many are 12 volt. Upgrade the lighting to LED it's pretty low draw compared to incandescent.
When I build my permanent shack I'm going to build a Happy Jack style bunk. That way you can run it up out of the way for day fishing and drop it down for night time. Saw a video the other day and a couple had jackknife bunks, I'd never seen them before. Didn't look like they stuck out too far when folded against the wall. Maybe not as comfy to sleep on though.
Just try to plan everything out such as wiring and all so it looks nice when you're done. Something to be said about clean looking projects. Good luck! I also say fish in it this winter and fix it up in the non ice season.
Thank you!
Tounge n groove or shiplap on walls ..flatscreen rigged up to see your live scope or a underwater camera on it
Good ideas!
That is a heat shield above the heater so it deflects the heat out and protects above.
Ahhh ahahhaa thank you!
Sadly season coming to an end soon. But I can't wait till next season 🔥🔥🔥
Yes sir!
Latches for sure..just move the mount boards back down..3/4hinges you are gravy and got options..agree with the guy about little shelves everywhere..
👍👍👍
Them ice camping catch and cook is way better than ice shack. But congrats to Minndak
Thank you!
If you get a battery box like they use in RVs you can have the solar run straight into it and it will have a number of Anderson plugs on it for connecting 12v appliances or you could add a pure sine wave inverter and run 110/240v. When connecting the system DON'T connect the solar panels and turn them on until everything else is connected. As soon as the panels are connected they're supplying charge so hook everything else up first.
For a short term fix get a lightboard for the back of the trailer. It's just a set of tailer lights on an 8 foot long PVC board with a 20 foot lead and plug. Super common here in Oz. Just about every boat you see has one. I've also used them on cage trailers, car trailers etc.
Wow thank you so much for your knowledge! We appreciate it!
@@MinnDakOutdoors lol it's all just stuff I've run into before, mainly because I'm a lot older than you guys.
Name it The Love Shack!! Because "I got me a car, it's as big as a whale and we're about to set sail!"
Ahhahaha
I like it! Doing some Winter camping Because the Winter camping is the best videos you done so far on the channel!
Bet!
Congrats on the purchase. You should put a love-seat across the back wall to replace the bottom bunk. Makes a good spot to sit for jigging and the recliners can double as a bed
Oooo that’s a good idea!
So excited for you guys. I'm glad you guys got something cool to work on together. Keep up the great content.
Thank you!
Name her "Persereverance" Sounds fancy, and the grind you boys will put her through, seems like a good/well deserving name. Thanks, Joe From Fargo
That’s a great name thank you’
remember put 2by4 on each corner so frame wont freeze to the ice and bank all the way around shack if you are leaving it out for extended time
Thanks definitively will come in handy!
You need hooks to hang jackets and shelves to hold lattes and tackle. Lighting down by the holes is really nice when the rattle reels go off at night. Rattle reels that can be taken off the walls when not in use is huge. You’re going to want a broom in there to clean up/get slush off the floor. Make sure to get safety hole covers so Jon doesn’t lose another camera 😂
Hahahhaha yeah we will have to get Jon some 😂
for the bunk put a 2x4 on the back wall at the height you want it then put hinges on the 2x4 and on the bunk. put a eye hook in the celling then just a normal hook on the outside of the bed
If you leave the house out without the heat on the walls will get super frosty, so take that into consideration if painting or redoing them. Shelves and hooks or nice wherever convenient or move top bunk down some to use as storage for coats, blankets, etc. Get a cargo net to block it in when moving.
Thanks!
Congratulations on the purchase of your new. used Ice House! you guess have definitely earn it and I hope you enjoy every moment you can with it. Thank you for taking us on the journey!
Thank you!!!!
Make sure you put fenders on. I bought a similar one last year and got pulled over on my way home for no fenders!
Jon/Sam, tons of potential boys !!! Don’t let the naysayers tell you differently. I agree with one of the earlier comments, fish in it this year and develop your plan for the remodel. Then knock it out over the summer. I’d name it the DinnerBell Hotel !!!
The dinner bell hotel! We like it!
In the front I would put 2 boat seats for fishing the 2 hole an put a drop down bunk above them that will fold up. Mount the tv on a side wall with a mount that folds out.
Good idea
Aye git ahold of SAMMY JAMMY a.k.a. Sam Sobi. He bought one a season or 2 ago and he did some Pipmin Out and made it how he and Steph wanted it. I'm sure he'll be happy to help. Then ya'all need to git to catchin & cookin some of them Jumbo Yeller Belly Slough Tigers!!
Yes sir!!!!
Jon you could just add two boards back to were that top bunk was originally and then just when not in use move the bed to the top and out of the way and you could then put your stuff up there so that stuff is out of the way and then when ready for bed just move it back down!!! You would only have to get two boards and mount to the wall and you would be good to go!!! That’s probably what I would do and then it could be used more multiple things!!! Well hopefully that helps you out???
Great stuff! Thank you!!!
Put boards under the frame when you set it on the ice. That way it shouldn't melt into the ice and freeze in
Get led strips to put around the top of your shack on the inside
Okay bet!
One month left, get that battery, fix the beds and fish that sucker till season ends. Renovate while the ice melts. Id make comfortable chairs a priority, make a decent cooking area for the pizzaz. Bunk beds kinda suck because one guy roasts and one is cold.
That’s true!
For flooring maybe look at boat foam flooring, it'll be more comfortable to walk on, look better, and can be sprayed off/not affected by water. For lights, I'd suggest the select a size led strip. That way for night time you can use a green or something that's not sleep disruptive, but still overs visibility. And for the trailer wiring, you can order kits on Amazon that go from new lights all the way to the connector for less than $30
Perfect thank you!
Man the new ice camping videos are going to be straight fire with the new shack! Congrats boys, can't wait for the celebratory glizzy's!
Ahhaha yessss first meal on the shack has to be glizzys!
I'd imagine that metal shelf is to protect the icy window from a blast of heat, causing it to crack
You should put knotty pine wood up. The knots give it some good features to look at while your fishing
Rip that bottom bunk out and put in a couch. Lower the top bunk down and put it on a hinge so you can lock it up when you’re not using it.
Add a vented heater! Do not use that heater and sleep overnight, high chance of Carbon Monoxide
Gotcha thanks!
It's probably already been mentioned but all the outlets will require a generator to provide 120 VAC power to them. Definitely get LED lights that run of a 12 VDC battery for lighting so you don't need the generator. The shelf above the heater would work well for warming already cooked food but not actual cooking. As for the wall, yes replace the wood paneling with a plastic, fiberglass, composite, any material that is water proof or at least water resistent. You shanty will go through numerous heating/cooling cycles which will create condensation/moisture with leads to molding and roting. This looks like a great and fun project.
Bet thank you so much!
Jon & Sam's MinnDak Jack Shack
Ayyyeee
"THE STABBIN CABIN"
All easy work to fix that up and have it on the ice in no time. I'm looking forward to seeing what you guys do with it.
🤣🤣🤣🤣 that name got me! Thank you!
No way better than to Christen the new shack with a fart lmao can't wait for the fire vids
Hahahhaa
I'm sure someone pointed it out but those black mounts are for rattle reels.
Awesome 👍 Can't wait for the future of ice fishing
Same here!
Looks like a good start for 3,000. Can wait to see what you guys do with it.
Appreciate it!
100% throw a tv in there with a locking wallmount so it doesnt move around when you drive, on a 100ah a tv and blu ray player run for 17.5 hours roughly ;)
Appreciate it!
Get rid of the death trap open flame heater. Move the 2 front holes back build a front shelf/ table and put forced air furnace and batteries in that cabinet. Put a jack knife futon in back on bottom.
The jack knife couches are lit!
Hey guys! 2 suggestions for the new ice castle’ If you want a good battery for external accessories and tech, the best is Dakota Lithium! They make a damn good battery that has a super long run time. And for the mattresses, I’ve got to recommend either the Exped deep sleep 7.5 or the mega mat 10. Phenomenally comfortable, base-camping foam air mattresses that are the Cadillac of comfort. And they also can be used for car camping and or a spare mattress in a hunting cabin or your house! Best of luck fellas! Hope you love the thing!
Thank you Kevin for your input! We appreciate it!
If you can run the electric I'd keep the incandescent bulbs in there... if it's insulated well enough they may be enough to keep it a decent temp.
Humble beginning!
Caddy Shack,Shad Attack, Shack Rake Fishin 4 Facts.
Sorry I’m finishing for the night
Those are all good names!
@@MinnDakOutdoors Kinda weak, look for others. If I won the name contest I’ll come up and do some fishing. I have not had any luck but trout down in AR
I’m excited to see a 5 part series! Let’s go!
👍👍👍
You can ask Luke for help since he renovated his trailor into an ice house himself. He should be able to give you guys some tips.
Well he was supposedly to help but he ditched us to go hunting
Make sure when your towing that is a little heavier up front / tongue weight. Going to be a great series guys ! Congratulations!
Thank you!
They make a laminate flooring that snaps together and is 100% waterproof. Just installed some of it and it's very easy for beginners to do.
Sweet! Thanks!
Do not use snap together flooring ot will Pop apart
Nice purchase!! Wiring the lights is super easy!! Looks like an old boat trailer!
Appreciate it!
Came here to say this. That winch on the front looks like it used to be for the column on a drift boat trailer or something.
You gotta learn and start somewhere! It looks pretty nice. Mine started with an old fort. We turned it into a skid house for 5 years and welded a frame up for it about 4 years ago.
Nice!!!!
Hey guys I’m newish to your channel. I found it this past year just waiting for ice!
If you’re looking for bedding in your new shack, find the studs and screw in i rings and hang hammocks.
That’s a great idea! Didn’t think of that.
I think you guys have a good idea. Looking forward 👍
Thank you!
Oh and for the floor I would try and wrap like the linoleum up the sides like 4” and that way it’s all one piece and if a bunch of water gets on the floor it won’t be able to run to the edges and soak into the wood!! It would be kinda like a shallow tub!! Hopefully that makes since to you??? Or I guess you could get some really good calking and calk between the floor and wall to kinda help from water getting in the corners!!!?
Big bet!!!!!
Slippery when wet. Thin carpet is best.
good bones! little touches to make it your own and u have a nice shelter!
Yes!!!
Hey man the heater you have in that fish house will get you sick I think, unless its a newer ice castle one, it's gonna get you sick, not with CO2 but other stuff in the air I'm 16 and I bought a fish house and got super sick because I spent night with an old heater with unprotected gases flowing out, however the buddy heaters are healthy because they shut off if it gets bad and the newer ice castle ones do also
Gotcha thanks!
I would enjoy installing trailer lights on that shack I love automotive electrical work
Will definitely do that
Boot and glove drying area over the heater
The Blackshack!!
Drive it south and have Beefcake Construction (Flair) help you build it
We need to!
If you ain’t playing Warzone in that thang, then is it even fishing?! 😂 Cant wait to see the updates 🤙🏽
Hahaha facts!
HELL YEAH. LFG!
👍👍👍
I think you might need to make sure of the tires first thing. Why, will they need to have heavy sidewalls for the weight your house is. Make sure you have Load range D
Next look at the bearings and replace them regularly you don’t want to be dead on the road because a bearing is froze
I agree with shelving, wire shelving is best up near the ceiling
Remember any thing you add will add weight lt strains the bearing more
That heater will work great , keep it clean
Take out the bunks and get cots and some chairs for mobility
If you mount a TV remember that the roads are rough and a tv might not make the ride well
Just my 2 cents
And been down this road before
Good luck
Thank you for your input! We appreciate it!
I recommended a bunch of shelves and I couldn't come up with what to call them but wire shelves is exactly right. Can't have to many.
Did u guys measure in inside diameter of the house. We pulled the bunk bed out of our ice castle and i’m wondering if it would work in your new ice house.
7 feet wide!
@@MinnDakOutdoors Can I send you guys a instagram DM with the picture of the bed?
Can’t wait to see the videos with it
Excited to get it out!
Jon and Sam, whatever you guys do with the fishing shack, make sure you do it right, especially the wiring, both inside and out. Nice buy!
Thank you! And we will make sure we get someone that knows what they’re doing to help!
Run ‘er for what’s left of this winter and do it right during the summer
That’d be the smart thing to do!
2:22 Ice age baby 😂😭
You definitely got a good deal, I think. You can buy LED bulbs to screw into the existing sockets. Yeah you should vinyl plank the floor. You might want to waterproof the wood before you put vinyl down. One problem I see unless it is adjustable, is if the solar panel is permanently attached straight up and down. If it is you should make or have made an adjustable mount to swing it out to different angles to catch the sun.
Do not use plank flooring in anything that moves. It will freeze and pop the floor apart.
Thank you
Hey it get the lights wired up and then get it weighed very necessary.
Bet!
You a should mount that carbon monoxide detector closer to the floor. That's where those Gasses will start to collect first
Yes sir!
Hell yeah John and Sam that looks pretty damn sweet for 3K ... I was expecting it to look like BW,s the shanty
Thanks!!!
“Winch”. Not the other one…. 🤣🤣
Hahaha
Those plastic things on the wall are rod holders or even good for tip ups and normally attached to a 5 gallon bucket. I bet they used tip ups on the walls as a dead stick for fishing. Heck, maybe even used a tip up as a dead stick the way they mounted it over the holes. Get rid of them, though. I have them on buckets and they’re ok, but nothing worth keeping on the walls.
Thank you for the input!
Call it: The Big Rock Candy Mountain Sir
Square Toddy might be the name. Or a hot one if it is insulated well enough. Congrats on the perm!
Thank you!
Ask the shanty boys for help they are crafty handymen
Bet!
You guys crack me up! Love your videos
Appreciate it’
Minn-Dak Shack ? Food and drink are primary so make sure you address them. Warmth and comfort too. Like the TV idea, got to have tunes too. Rod racks. Places for all your audio visual stuff. Additional spares. Learn trailer maintenance too. Count on the roof leaking so learn how to patch/repair. Can't wait to see the finished product. Insure and secure, very important. Sadly, losers are already trying to figure out how to steal it. Congrats and best of luck !!!
Thank you so much!
Bamboo on the walls 👌🏼
Vinyl is realy slippery boys with the snow and everything.
👍
Thing is sick !!!!!! I’d get a nice shield for them tanks there
Yes sir!
I’m stoked for you dudes. You all have made so much progress and it’s beautiful to see. I just finished a solid shack it’s been my home away from home. Check it out if ya want ! It’s on my TH-cam.
Much love from the Yoop !!!
The MinnDak Shak
Let’s go!!!😊
Nice little shack
Yes sir!
Love your videos man keep it up 👍 cabin name The slab shack
Hahaha that’s a lit name!
That is not too bad of a deal
Trailer lights are way easier than you think! Just follow instructions and you'll be ok
Big bet!
Awesome buy, the bones are perfect. You guys can’t go wrong. Can’t wait to see the reno’s.
Thank you!
