the world's premiere online community for backyard ice rinks

I know its been posted on here multiple times but as a Newbie I just wanted to let other noobs know that hot water with the homemade rink rake works so much better than cold.  I had to make the extra effort to get access to hot water and let me tell you, there is such a huge difference in the results.   If you can get it, use it!

You arent kidding, my first ever resurface with our newly made homeboni and hot water was yesterday and smooth as glass, not to mention how much easier the hose coils up as a bonus, lol.

I've been leaving the hose outside, so I don't have to bring it in.  Draining it after each use is a must.  Check out my page/history for the sketch of how to connect it.

We have a devoted garbage can for the hose, coiling it up into the can isnt that bad and keeps all the water/mess inside, we then simply take the can to the basement each time and its warm and ready to use again without being stiff.  ( probably about 100 feet )
