[QUOTE="Oklahomabassin, post: 2683911, member: 1546"] We framed ours and used insulation and bought some slide up glass windows for ours. Used thin plywood on interior walls, can't remember thickness. In the studs, we can screw into to mount a shelf for spare Mr Buddy propane bottles, etc. Also important to us, was a 6 inch window sill, on the inside to use a front bag for rifle rest. This really helps the kids on their first hunt. (I don't have kids, but I take some every year.) We initially used rolled roofing (kinda like shingles) on the roof, but after 3 years, covered it with tin. The roof is insulated as well, so the rain isn't loud, but you can hear when a bird lands on it. The inside is painted black to help hide us, and we made curtains with see through mesh for the windows. We also sewn in some lead fishing weights in the bottom seam to weight the bottoms, so they wouldn't blow around when the windows were open. The black interior and the mesh allow you to move around (if quiet) with deer at 15 yards and never know you are there. The curtains are in 2 pieces so you can slide them apart and poke a rifle out the window. This works great as young kids don't often sit real still. [/QUOTE]
