    Default What kind of wood walls

    I was wondering what kind of lumber interior walls are you guys using it inside your shacks? Or are you using metal?

    I'm building my shack this spring, broke ground in the fall but the weather caught up with me and put everything on hold. I plan on having everything KD except the bottom sill plate PT. Lots of shacks around here are all wood built, I've seen a metal one here and there. Some might tell you to plan for the future, for if and when the proposed laws would go into effect to try and run us little guys out of operation. I guess I'll take my chances on that and if it comes to it I'll put metal up then.

    Metal or some washable material would be best.
    I have not finished the inside of mine so its still rough cut hemlock.

    We put 7/16" osb on walls then covered that with milk house paneling and steel ceiling. Turned out great.
