What a crazy year it’s been at North Star Fabworks!

You guys kept me busy building land anchors pretty much all summer, and the funny thing is, I really haven’t done much advertising. These things seem to advertise themselves.

It usually starts with somebody borrowing one from a buddy or seeing one work out on the trail. Next thing I know, I’m getting a message like this asking where they can get one. 😂

And with how wet Alaska was this year, they definitely got put to the test.

I genuinely love hearing the stories and seeing the pictures of these anchors doing exactly what I built them to do getting people out of some seriously nasty situations. And keep the feedback coming, good or bad. If somebody ever finds a weakness or has a mishap, I want to hear about that too. That’s how I keep improving them.

I just finished another batch of 10 land anchors yesterday because inventory was getting pretty thin.

So, thank you to everybody who bought one, borrowed one, beat the hell out of one, recommended one to a buddy, or sent me pictures from the trail. I appreciate the support more than you know.

Land anchors are back in stock — $350 raw steel.

Well, she’s finally done.

I’m honestly pretty damn happy with how this aluminum rack project turned out on my Polaris Ranger 6x6. I’ve been wanting to build something like this ever since I bought the machine, and over the last couple years the idea just kept evolving. Last year’s Ranger 1000 bed project really helped shape the design, and this one came together even better than I had hoped.

The aluminum sheeting and rivets gave it a super clean look, everything is tight, there’s no rattling, and it feels solid as a rock. I’d still like to build a rear door eventually, but I want to find a different material first, so that’ll be a project for another day. The hinges are already sitting on the bench waiting.

This build was designed with one thing in mind: Alaska moose season.

The upper rack will make hauling camp gear a breeze, and I should be able to pack everything I need into camp in a single trip. When it’s time to head home, I’m pretty confident it’ll haul a bull moose and all the gear without breaking a sweat. The rear boom I built for the winch came out better than expected too. It’s stout, and I don’t see any problem lifting close to 500 pounds with it.

It’s been a couple months of rebuilding, upgrading, wrenching, welding, and spending way too much time staring at it while drinking coffee and pretending I was working. But seeing it all come together makes it worth it.

Now all I need is for moose season to hurry up and get here.

And maybe for Alaska to quit trying to cook us alive. It’s hard to get excited about hunting when it’s 85 degrees outside and the mosquitoes are flying around like they pay property taxes.

Anyway, enjoy the pictures. North Star Fabworks at it again. 🇺🇸🫎🏔️
