Resto-mod a sled deck in WA gathering ideas...

[Luke45]

I just made mine, and i have about 1300 dollars worth of everything into mine. Mine is marine grade plywood, all aluminum, super clamps, super gluides and lights. But I also got most of the stuff for cost. And also wanted the best stuff I could get.

2TheTop corrections only 15", no diapers were harmed in the snow dance, and i'm not lazy (i just work in spurts )

I think it was worth it… I could have bought a used name brand for less or a new steel for slightly more, but now I know what I have. And it a very solid nice deck. Might add rolling trays, winch plates, and lights next year I will probably use for a few years then think about selling and upgrading.
