Cool ‘Gloo Tool

leave a comment »

Members of the Hays clan probably remember the year we miscalculated the dimensions of our igloo and needed to get a ladder, and ultimately add an internal support wall, to finish what became my first-ever two room igloo. Well, someone has come up with a tool that will prevent that and allow us to create a perfectly shaped igloo dome. Check out Grand Shelters Inc’s ICEBOX®!

The ICEBOX® tool in action

Don’t forget, we will be returning to the site of that wonderful winterland getaway where I like to build igloos, this February. Hopefully, the climate will still provide enough snow for such endeavors by the time that weekend arrives. It would be an ideal opportunity to test out such a tool. If I ever get around to creating that wish-list I’ve been asked to make, I will be sure to include information about the ICEBOX® on it. It isn’t an inexpensive tool, but it’s not likely to become a mass-produced, more affordable novelty, so I may merely ask for contributions toward the cost. It would be worth my coming up with the difference, at least to try it out.

What price for snow fun, anyway?
