Skip, I'm a builder/ carpenter (35) years I can do 2 a day if I can access the spot. This one kicked my tail as I had to hand carry Everything by hand. On beer 7 now. Couple more and it's bedtime. Lol. The part I strive for is being 100% air tight. That will come as time allows. Get a Mn tag...

Ya build a deer stand. Lol. I knew I'd be stranded at my hunting cabin for a couple days due to rain, so I went n bought material to build a blind. Started early this morning and quit at beer thirty ( 5p.m) To muddy to get back there so I framed/ sheathed the walls and had to carry it all by...
