It can’t be that you have to put the seats in the bottom! What is the point of the sled then if it isn’t to carry your gear? I guess I will need to daisy chain another sled behind it.

matt is the man

Do you or anyone else you know sell these types of rigs?

Big fan of all your videos mike big help bought clam a few year back for the firts time now i own Voyager XT and kenai ice edition 1 man and ill never buy anything but clam

Awsum!!!!!!!!!

How much did something like this costed

These are A perfect One man Shack light weight easy to handle.

I ice fish but i do not have a flip over but i absolutely love how well this and your other videos are done. Practical, down to earth explanations. I wish all manufacturers of DIY assemblies were so clear.

if your putting the 3 runners on the bottom watch out for the middle one. the long screws might land where the seat sits

do we need to setup the door or it is uptional?

Is there a floor for the x400 thermal pop up?

Always disappointed to see "made in China" on your stuff. Please source your manufacturing in North America

Nice

Very nice suits! I started out using the clam edge x suit. Love that parka! My only complaint was it was too warm! Lol seriously! Bibs were tight in a medium so i went to a large. I just sold that suit and now im using the defender. Much more durable overall although i never had durability issues with the edge x. I just bought the clam vertex gloves aswell. E-vent is a nice technology! Its been used in hiking gear for some time now so i know what to expect. Primaloft insulation is amazing! Holds its warmth even when wet. I wouldn't mind seeing some lightweight goose down versions by clam in the future. A little down goes along way too so it would be lighter and warmer. Would just need to reinforce high pressure areas like the knees and elbows. Thank you clam for all you do for the ice fishing community! Fish on!🐟🎣

Why didn't you have it this year ????? I did it last year.

Did you buy the half hoops separately, or did you just cut the hoop and turn it into two?

I purchsed this exact suit top and bottoms. The parka is super warm! Almost too warm but X stands for Xtreme. Something to keep in mind. I bought mediums. Jacket fit great but bibs were too tight. Not alot of room in the gut and too tight in the crotch area. Unfortunately size large bibs are sold out everywhere. Ughh so now i have brand new bibs i cant use. I was hesitant to order something i havent tried on and my worries were justified. Regardless its a very nice set. Well thought out and extremely warm. Fish on!!

I guess I shouldn't have bought mine in Oct. My x-600 has the triangle doors. 😥

Put a anchor down before you do anything

A walk through would’ve been nice

Great tutorial, Mike. When I first looked at the directions for Model 16611 (basically the same Clam) … I figured I was in for more than it looked like on the surface… Your video cleared all that up in a chinch. The devil’s always in the details!

What an Awesome story!

That is a Great Tutorial! Awesome job Mike and crew!

You can get your inner layers so much cheaper than the targeted brands by these companies. However. The outers are more important. Like float bibs and jackets. Be mindful folks. Read labels and compare.

Where can a guy find that seat assembly? I’ve been looking for a couple years.

Layering, is Sooo Important!

Can you use that stuff in the eskimo

Can you use that stuff in an eskimo

No longer sold. Really a game changer lol.

I wish there was like a x-1000 something right in between the 800 and 1200. 800 is about too small for a group of 4 for over night and the 1200 is way too big.

Good luck finding them, found 2 on line via Ebay.

Do you really need to put the seats in the tub when collapsing? .... Where do I put my gear?

Thanks for putting this video together, I watched this many times and it made it a lot easier to build. Great step by step instructions!

What is the back pole for I built mom and there one pole in the center in the back that won’t stay is that just for when’ it’s windy to just put up to help for Alex tea support

TATSUMI 🔥

Interesting unit my concern would be any water in that metal housing (trigger mech) freezing and preventing it from going off.

lol looks super water proof you can see nothing but light through the stitching i had the same problem with my hunting tent i would not waste my money on this product just a joke

If you get this as question that often, maybe come up with more user friendly solution. "Boiling water and a bucket" smh

I was disappointed in this demonstration. I could not see the line. They should have used something bright colored like a braid to make it easy to see. Also the two triggers were kind of confusing. Overall it looks and sounds like a great idea. Watching this on my 6.4 inch HD screen phone I had a hard time seeing what was actually being displayed. That is my only problem. I really do like clam products, it was the demonstration that was the problem for me.

Glad to see your going in the right direction educating the public. You need a fishing personality like the way Tony Dean handled his fishing show. A person who has environmental and fisheries background with a personality and can be trusted.

Since comments on other sites say a five gallon bucket won’t fit anywhere in the tub... can you offset the seat rails to one side. Understand additional holes would need to be drilled

would i be okay using a 10” flight i have that’s metal with the plate? i’d prefer not spending the money on a plastic 10” since i already own a 10” metal

Beautiful! Absolutely beautiful!

Here’s a thought though - what about wind? How is this going to sustain through 35 to 40 mph winds, or more? Over the years, I’ve sat through many blizzards on the ice but not in a canvas style shack. Will it survive? Anybody? What do you think?

Wish Clam would do removable windows or install stove vents in the roof like some of the other manufacturers are doing. Now I'm cutting holes in my hub shack to run a stove vent pipe.

does the battery come with the Clam X-400 Thermal Ice Team Edition Hub Ice Shelter version?

I like it! I like it a lot! There is no such thing as too much room. Can never have enough room. I’m thinking of getting this just for myself… supplies and sleep on one side… fish on the other side. It would be much easier for one person than a permanent house (wheel house) and this has portability. Tow another sled along with more supplies; pull two sleds.

Those look good.

Mane thanks some much for taking your time to make this great instructional video i just finished putting my XT thermal together and its ready for the ice thanks to you i give you 5 stars thanks again 💪
