6-12"x48"
12-12"x18"
Deer view insulated doors:
2-30"x72"
Spray foam insulated
Wood paneling interior
3/4" plywood floor

Porch:
Approx. 30"x36"

Expanded metal floor.

Base:
6' tall
2-3/8" pipe legs
3"x3"x3/16" angle iron square ring on the ground 7.5'x7.5'

(to bolt base to)

Pics are not the best. It's tough in a small garage. Pardon the junk.

Cool!

I'm a big fan of welded frame blinds.

Thanks guys. I'll keep ya updated.

[cumminchevy]

Got all the lumber cut to frame out the windows. Picking up paint tomorrow for the frames.

I also got a door mocked up and a window.

[SilverFox]

Great idea. Following.

[cumminchevy]

Got all the window holes and most of the 1x2 wood frames for the windows.





Too hot to get a whole lot done.... Whewww

[HoosierDaddy3]

What do you move that thing with, a crane? Do you elevate them or just put them on skids or the ground?

[panhandlehunter]

Looks like it'll withstand a hurricane.
