Any of you have any expirience with these skis?
I'm getting ready to built a set of Wheelskis for my experimental cub and like Frenchy's home built skis. I'm wondering what kind of 12 volt actuators he used?

Thanks Frenchy, I found the actuators on the web site. Just trying to get a materials list together. How big of tires can you use with your skis?
This was a great thread and needs reviving. We are in the middle of a lousy winter in south central Alaska with too warm/ minimal snow conditions . Wheel skis are looking better and better! The Rossi clones that 8856C was working on are still a no show but sure had our hopes up. Frenchy, those are great skis you made and I will probably use your excellent videos to make a set. Any changes or ideas you wish you would have done? Are the aluminum sizes you used all working out to be strong enough ? I like the little more curve that Irishfield had on his and will do that for deep snow performance. Irishfield, could you please post pictures of how your retractable tail wheel was linked to the plate? Courier Guy, your Datums look good. Why do they have such good ground clearance when raised? Could AL skis like Frenchy made be made to do that?
Frenchy,
Any chance of gettings some more measurements or even a crude drawing so I could try to make a similar set?
