I'd say it will hold if you don't move it. Lol what about rivets and dab the wee holes with calling.

I went with a tube of gorilla glue. It seems to hold up okay but I put in a few screws where the tin was wavy. I put on the hinges to connect the roof to the wall. Small progress but it still feels good. I have no ice to put it on anyway.

Still lots of work to do thanks for the replies and positive comments.

Added a tad more tin and finished the plywood side . It folds down nicely on plywood side. I have not folded the other walls and roof yet. Starting to look like something.

I'm getting into high gear with the hut. I got the last of the tin on the hut and got some more 3/8 ply installed. I did a little staining with deck stain I didn't get too far.

A little more staining I have build and stained the last wall for the door side. I need to install it and put little trim pieces in. I'm almost done! I'll post more pics soon.

So close to being finished. Just a bit of insulation to put in and some hardware.

I'm looking forward to seeing it folded and possibly a step by step pics of opening it up. If you could.
Interesting
