    Re: My Cabin Property On 40 Acres

    OK, we have storm covers for the window, but not security type.

    I have been thinking about building covers that would act as a security device, plus storm covers.

    It needed to be super easy to remove and close up.

    After a year or 2 of thought, I concluded I would use barrel hinges for pins to slide the cover on and lock it.

    1.5" angle iron for cabin mount, 1.25" angle iron setting over the top, and 1/5" expanded metal over the top.

    Painted frame to match cabin, covered in satin black.

    I have six windows.

    All frames are completed; four are finished 100% and painted.

    I ran out of expanded metal, so I am picking up a new 4X8 sheet on Saturday.

    So this weekend, it should all be done.

    Canceled Kubota run, doing window covers, adding an electric heater in the cabin (Cadet 220V) and a sub-panel at the well to be able to run another power set up to another campsite; this is the full 50/30/20A plugs, 50A being 220V.

    Fill those freezers!
    No one has seen elk in my cabin area.

    We do have moose, white tail, and mule deer. Loads of turkey, grouse, wolves, bear, grizzly (rare to see one which I am thankful).

    I can hear the grouse drumming in April.

    It sounds like an old single cylinder tractor trying to start.

    Corkster, headed up in April 2025, let me know if you want to stop by and get the Mule tour.

    Be around 3rd week, roads there are usually free of snow and ice by then, just deer on the move only road hazard.

    Installing window security/storm covers.

    Changing RV panel inside well enclosure.

    I'll be there a full week.

    Stop by.

    OK, I ordered a wooden CNC machined sign for my place; go on the cabin porch.

    Keeping with park and forest service themes.

    The main entrance sign is on its way.

    Go by the front gate; I may get a smaller version for the back gate, too.
