ok both of my sisters’ b-days are coming up and i really can’t afford like an ipod or anything like that. so i was going to build a little shack like thing so it could be thier club house. they both really want a tree house but the shack thingy would do since they both have a fear of heights and building a tree house would be a waste of time. anyway i am 14 so i don’t have a job but i could probably scrunch away some money if i try. so how can i build this shack. what building materials would i need. i am open for suggestions. i would like for the structure to be around
13′ x 13′. i would also like to know what shape would be easiest to build. it won’t have electricity of course but i would like to put some sort of insilation in so they could play year round. would like thick heavy blankets work for insilation. and would they work better with like garbage bags over them since g-bags are water proof. i don’t want any stupid answers like just use milk cartons or use a refrigerator box. i want actual informative answers. the cheaper the building materials the better. i would also like to have an estimate of how much you think the materials would cost and if you would a little info on how to build it would help. (hence the question, how can i build a shack.) i live in oklahoma and the sales tax is somewhere between 8 – 10 cents a dollar, i can’t really remember. again the cheaper the better.
