[QUOTE="hammer33, post: 5680154, member: 19900"] One thing that is mandatory is a staircase style set of steps with a small landing. No more climbing up ladders to find wasps napping in the door frame !! I like the look of that set up BSK. Do you have a photo of the stairs/ladder installed? I can build one no problem, but it wont be portable. If you are thinking of building one on a standard size utility trailer, it cant be very tall without a lot of tie downs and strapping. I have one that is built on a trailer elevated about 52 inches above the floor of the trailer and its a tad shaky. Also, if you are going to build one out of roof metal, frame the walls up with plywood first or you are making a giant base drum. Every little noise will reverberate. Finally got mine quieted down to a usable level with about 5 cans of spray foam, a big roll of carpet padding on all the walls/floors and a piece of carpet over that. Still have to be careful not to bump the walls. anybody have pictures of a sportsman condo on the tower with stairs? Or just the tower up? [/QUOTE]
