I am planning on building a permanent ice shack this spring, and i have a lot of questions, and have read almost every post on the topic and have just come up with more. I was thinking about making it an 8x10 or 8x12, but might go with 7 wide so i can have wheels on the outside. heres my questions
1. How hard is it to make aframe that lowers and raises a shack, and how much would it cost me to get one made.
2. ARE 2X2S strong enough for wall studs. ( I am an estimator and lumber manager at a Menards and keep wanting to go by the housing codes and am afraid i will make it to heavy.
3. Is steel a good thing for siding or is lauan better
