Cutting and Organizing the Pieces of Pressure Treated 2x4's






One of the Brackets

Setting up the Boards




Liner Installed

Filled - Waiting on Mother Nature


Note that the far corner had to be chamfered due to slope. We used string levels to layout the rink. I borrowed a rotating laser level to check where the ice level would be before placing the liner.

December 8, 2014 - First Skate


sorry for the poor quality.... cell phone pic in low light

After last weeks rain, snow,and slush followed by the moderate temperatures this week the rink has finally refroze. I just walked across the rink.... it's a little noisy but solid. It'll be in the 20's all night. We'll be installing the kick plates tomorrow and resurfacing all weekend to get back to a smooth surface.

Finally we're skating again..... just finished a skate with the boys.

The surface still needs some work but at least we're skating.

Awesome!
It's pretty nice when the hard work pays off.
