Kerf was the same as in wood. I didn't trace the circle and we had to cut about a four inch wide channel and remove the ice in-between and trim the tight spots. Dot = Indian, not native American, to the "too many chiefs not enough indians" reference.

I am sure there is already talk of next years bigger and better. Lots of chiefs not enough indians (feathers not dots) but I guess in this case a dot is what was needed. :lol: Sooo maybe I'll just pull rank next year and be the chief it should go much smoother.

Bad ass worth an ice up air filter, gallon of veggie oil, about a gallon saw mix, and four hours of my life i'll never get back. But I did land two sizable jobs out of it and the word of mouth exposure to the lake crowd may have off set the BS.

Agreed… says this not so old man. A lot of work for a spinning disc of ice.

I didn't take any but I am sure it's on youtube by now. Every damn member took at least one picture and there was a drone even. They really didn't do anything special like lights just a burn barrel in the middle of a large spinning disc of ice. I saw some footage on FB last night.

Well the ice was cut yesterday and all turned out well and good after running the prop of the motor into a rock crib pile for a pier but that wasn't my call. It was 60' in diameter.

I am inclined to say "no wear" the oilers are pretty basic. I asked that every same question at Bailey's back when I bought my Lewis winch and they said not to worry about it. And this was before the old man passed and the staff really knew their stuff.

Who me? I plan on using veggie oil just incase. Keep the greenies happy and lesson wear and tear, possibly.

Yep that is what's getting made and they plan on using trolling motors. One or two I am not sure.

Thanks for the input guys. I'll probably use veggie oil to make the greenies happy.

They wanna make an ice carousel for a party they are having on the lake. Trolling motor lights and what not but I am just cutting ice the rest is all them.

36' in diameter

I was contacted by the yacht club to cut a large circle in the ice on Delavan Lake and I am wondering do I use bar oil ( I assume veggie oil) or do I not need it? Anybody have experience with this?
