Title: Sled
Post by: Marcellarius on December 07, 2012, 10:33:59 am: Yesterday they for-casted 5" of snow for today, so we started yesterday to build a sled.
had no plan so it took us a little longer but it's finished.
did the build together with two of my daughters. we had a great time together!

3/8" hardwood ply
1" pine for the glider
5/32" iron strip
and on top slats from a bed bottom

and now waiting if it's strong enough.....
