I kinda hope it works, and on the other hand I kinda don't


nothing would get done at the shop, and we spend enough time drinking beer as it is



then I would have to figure out how to make boards lol, I already have the guys fabing up some nets, official size. just gotta find netting

Have the wife knit ya one lol. That does sound pretty cool though. I might try that here . Just build a big box and line it with plastic. Kids would love that

yeah exactly


she aint the wife yet, soon tho lol but shes at work, I think were just going to go get some fishing net and triple it up




but now that I think of it, those Mexican soccer stores may have something closer to legit

Yeah there ha go. I was gonna suggest just cutting up some basketball nets. But that would be expensive lol . Going to have to look into this . Just go get me some 2x4s and some screws. It doesn't have to be that thick for kids

its not that think for the nhl lol


Ice in NHL Rinks is 3/4" thick. The thicker the ice, the softer it will become, and slower it will be.

Ice in a local rink will be anywhere between 1-2 inches in thickness (Usually never exceeding 1.5"). The extra thickness is needed because of the frequent ice turnover.


im gunna try for an inch or so

youre a long way from 32 degrees. and then at 32 you will only be able to get a thin layer of water to freeze. need 20s and some time at least.

its been 20-25 from 10pm-10am, and then it gets warmer

and its on a concrete pad that holds the cold.

and I don't care/think it will stay all day, just wana use it in the morning, that would be cool, well see what happens

yeah just keep it thin like you said and with those temps it should work. i didnt figure it got that cold over there for that long. we been getting rained on for 2 days now its right at freezing and everything is getting a layer of ice on it plus it was sleeting in cincinnati.

It's been mid 40's to 50's all week here in Connecticut.

Not typical Nov/Dec weather at all

Seems do able . Iso pics of your trys lol
