Mark writes: 
"This is the second year of building a backyard rink in Greenville, Pennsylvania (about 60 miles north of Pittsburgh).  Last year we had about three weeks of skating, but this year the weather has cooperated and the kids have been skating since Jan. 11."

Rink Details:

Rink: 20'x30' (frame made of 2x6"x10'; Should have used 2x12", the first of many mistakes I've made in rink construction)
Liner: 6 mil. plastic
Deep End: 12 inches of ice (propped up frame with sand, bricks, etc.)
Shallow End: 2 inches of ice
Resurfacer: Homemade

Nice ice. Thanks for the pic Mark.
