Looks to be well made so far. Not sure what temps you guys hunt in. but on my old one before I put the sheeting on the frame, I wrapped the frame with Tyvek house wrap then put the siding on. That stuff keeps the wind from coming through and also makes the inside dark because the paper is dark on the back side.

This will be insulated with dow polystyrene and the interior walls will be stained ebony with a matte poly top coat. Exterior will be 6"section lap cypress siding. On and floor will be fully insulated as well as roof. Gotta keep the bugs out in the summer. One option im looking into is tinting the windows 30%.

I like the wood grain. Do you just apply the stain and wipe it off after so long?

It is actually burnt using a torch the sap woods turns black when hit. No stain applied. Takes a little practice to get the look you want.
