Cook Sled

Figure i better at least make somethin useful from the landing gear of the airplane so turned it in to a camp sled.

Nice....Better make it arrow proof, though...

That's a cool adaption of the Chuck Wagon!...

And what Blaine said...

Does the cook pull it or do you?

Seriously now, it is a pretty neat sled. If we had snow and I had a place to go I'd look at using such a thing.

Blaine · Post by **Blaine** » Fri Nov 30, 2012 1:53 pm

I was just thinking (Uh Oh..) How about some drop down wheels?

Very nice, Pitchy.

Now you can put a hitch ball on it so's you can make a train and connect your "dog-sled".

You can drag the whole rig out for a night-time "cocoa and beans" hike.

I see a need for draft animal in your future... or a stick to persuade a member of your party to 'git up'...

Thanks all

Here`s the puller for now, going to pull it up in the woods in the morn and have breakfast.

Great idea Pitchy.

Thanks Mac, can`t wait to try it out in the morn.
Eggs and pan cakes sounds good.

Looks good. You may want to rig up a solid draw bar instead of ropes though. If you have a down hill section, it may try and push you or get caught up in your tires and flip.

Thanks iceman, i agree but we will be staying on flat ground with it.
If i make another with wheels on it for summer use it would have a draw bar on it for sure.

That looks like a nice, light sled that should be easy to pull. Looks like there's room on that sled to pack The Cook too, all bundled up in furs.

Birdman · Post by **Birdman** » Fri Nov 30, 2012 10:17 pm

I'm thinking about pancakes for breakfast but I'll be cooking mine in our little get-a-way cabin a few miles from our house. It's suposed to be in the 60's tomorrow so I'm planning on a motorcycle ride too. I won't be pulling any sleds or wagons though. I thought I might see a pic of that sled hitched up to yur ol shovel Pitchy.

Fantastic! Pitchy you sure are inspirational.....

FWiedner · Post by **FWiedner** » Sat Dec 01, 2012 11:26 am

Dang, breakfast looks good.

I don't know about sharing a fork with Cujo, though.

alnitak · Post by **alnitak** » Sat Dec 01, 2012 11:32 am

That's great Pitchy! Breakfast looks yummy too!

KirkD · Post by **KirkD** » Sat Dec 01, 2012 11:34 am

I'll bet that breakfast tasted extra good. That whole rig looks right handy. You can carry a lot of extra stuff on it, take it to wherever you are working (or playing

) and have yourself a nice outdoor meal without heading back to the yard.

Borregos · Post by **Borregos** » Sat Dec 01, 2012 11:39 am

Pitchy, I'm hungry

Hayseed · Post by **Hayseed** » Sat Dec 01, 2012 12:52 pm

Dang !! I dint hear chow call !! Any left overs

Well come on over we`ll whip up another batch.

Thanks guys.

Cool project!

Looks like fun, tho the dog doesnt seem to sure about the whole thing (besides the food).

I half expected to see the dog hooked up to tow it.

Thanks buddy, it would take a few of your kind of dogs to pull it i`m thinking.

I don`t like using the four wheeler it`s to noisy, prob. pull it by hand most the time.
If we would ever get some snow it would help, dern skating rink has almost melted, gonna have to take a bath in it next.

Wow! Really enjoyed the photos. Looks like everyone, including Snoopy, had a very good breakfast! Another great project!

You do very nice work, Pitchy. All you need now is Wishbone.

Hmmm...come to think of it, you look like Wishbone. You aren't...? Nah, ya couldn't be!

Now, that is just too cool....!!!
