Walls up. I had enough panels so I used them for the roof as well. Covered it all with rubber roofing. Added the galvanized trim on the corner. Now I need to get the door on and start finishing the inside. Deer season is impeding progress!

By the way floor plan is 5 foot 8inches " by 9'. 5 foot eight so it will fit on my trailer. 9 foot  so I didn't have to cut the side panels. Height is 8 foot which i now realize is a little over kill but I hate hitting the top of the shack with my ice saw.  Spear hole is 30 by 40 inches. All garage door panels are insulated! 

I've go the lights and dimmers covered but wondering what a good option for a fan to circulate the heat would be? I tried the computer fans in my shacks last year but wasn't real impressed with them.

Nice work on your shanty. I had that same idea a few years ago using garage door panels. A friend of mine was in the garage door business and he had a lot panels laying around. Just never went a head and built it. Spray foam would work really nice on this shanty. Good Luck on the rest of the build!
