Ok, who has made one of these. I bought an old grain wagon the other day and want to start collecting materials.
Windows- can double hung window operate ok installed on their side. Most of the salvaged one I am seeing are to tall to install upright. How about casement windows installed sideways? Do you think they would holdup over time? I saw some nice used 20 X 60 casements and thought they would be great on both the long sides of the blind.
Roofing - What do you all think of using coragated steel for roofing? Again I am looking at salvaged materials for this.
I have no clue about framing this thing up but I want it to be as cheap as possible. Salvaged steel for siding a good or bad idea? I dont even know how I would pitch the roof.
Any photos, successes or failures would be very helpful. I will show the progress of this project as I move ahead.
Thanks
