My newest project! Hauling this home 150 miles in the back of my pickup sure brought alot of smiles to the 100 degree heat travelers along the way!
Got it rigged so that I can hook to horse or the fourwheeler....so girls can take rides on the lake this winter! Going to give it a spiffy new paint job.

Cool! But why wait till winter? You can probably rig a bracket to use removable lawnmower tires on it and use it anytime.

Cool Sleigh Gypsy! At first I could not figure out how you were going to take it out on the water of the lake. I thought water skies & a boat?? Then it hit me that the lake would be frozen!! ::) ::) :P Have fun with it!

::)

Kramer's did! And the results about knocked him off his seat! :o

No, that was Beeferino if I recall.
Gypsy, how awesome to take on such a project for your kid's seasonal fun! I love how transparent it is that they are your world. Can't wait to see the final results.
