Wisconsin Winter Hang!

Many of the do-it-yourself pulk sites suggest using solid fiberglass electric fence rods. You can get them at Fleet Farm pretty cheap.

Very nice job on the finished pulk. Where did you get the ball-joints and what did they cost?

I got mine from McMaster-Carr.

Awesome job on the stove tarp. How well did it work out for you? Do you have any more pics of it?

Got the ball joints at Granger for $7.00 each. The steal ones look pretty but cost more than twice as much as the poly. ones I bought. I went to Farm and Fleet for rods but they carried 11/16th which were too big and 3/8th which were too small so I ordered two 5 foot .5" rods at granger as well. They were about $5.00 each. The DIY pulk is one of those projects with endless possibilities. I'll be testing the finished Pulk next weekend when I take out to Michigan Ice Fest for some winter camping and ice climbing in upper Michigan.

I think COTW may have more photos of the winter heated tarp that I used. I haven't taken any of it pitched.

Here's a shout-out to COTW--if you have any more pics of my rig, please post them if you get a chance. Thanks.

There are a few photos on the previous page but here are a few more. rbinhood also brought a second stove I believe made by fourdog but I don't have photos since he did not set it up. If I didn't say this before I think his DIY titanium stove is probably the coolest compact stove I've ever seen. It just doesn't radiate heat very well. I wonder if using a heat reflecting material on some of the inner walls of your winter tarp would reflect the heat radiating from the stove.

That is just too cool! Thanks for posting more of the photos and awesome job on making it rbin hood.
