TDF wow great looking sled nice work on the main cabinet and weather sealant stain Finnish,man your not to organized

I was going to use ski's but I couldn't find any kicking around the house,I think ski's are the best base for a sled.

I thought about making a frame out of aluminum but I didn't have any and not to mention fire up the welder,without a garage there was no way I could finish it by Saturday morning.

So PVC it is,I've built most of the base and without a garage I have to work quick,I don't mind the cold it's just the cement doesn't cure to well in it.
So tomorrow night after work I hope to complete the base and then bring it to my neighborers garage and put the wood on it and maybe some dividers in it.

The front of the sled isn't finished I need to put on 2-45 degree fittings to give a blunt nose and between the two fittings will be a Tee going back to the main frame then put plywood on top of the base and place some sides on it.
