Ice Cabins right now are In the process of doing a conversion of there 12 x 16 4 peace sleeper. The thing was just to big to move around on the hard water. This is what we have in mind. We take the four sections each being 6 x 8 and convert them into 4 separate 2 man sleepers with the king being used as base camp for things like cards ,eating stuff like that. I idea here is if your playing cards all night with your buddy’s in the king and some guys want to crash now they can in separate accommodations.. Here's a pic of the king good idea?

Ok where off to the races…Here’s an existing floor of what use to be a 4 peace sleeper. If you take a good look you can see the out line of the old 2 walls on the floor. Will spin the floor around slap up the two existing walls add another wall as you see here to support the roof that’s existing as well from the old sleeper… I guess the door is going to go on the front here, good idea I think ill offset it to one side.. Also that’s wood from the existing benches that’s going to work out just fine..will pad them later. Ya dig?

Peter, As suggested before, the holes on the 2-4 man huts is too small dude. Can hardly fit two lines down, let alone 4-8!!!! A couple of 8-10" holes off to th side!! Try my suggestions at least on one of those new huts! www.lakesimcoemessageboard.com/post_images/hut.bmpThanks, East Luther (Jay & Sonja)

I think you should take out the back bench. Extend the hole to the back of the hut. Shorten the height of the bench so that the average person's feet will be flat on the floor. I'm not quite sure about the distance from the bench to the hole but it looks like it needs to be moved over a couple of inches but no so far as to have you leaning over to see down the hole.
Just my two cents, I have a few more ideas to make it a nickle.

That’s going to be a 2 man sleeper..Need to get in the folding table to support the stove/heater then will worry about the holes.. here's what 1/2 the floor looks like in the king..
