[QUOTE="Lycanthrope, post: 288085, member: 562"] This is definitely something worth considering... Im thinking if the top isnt below grade, but is insulated with a few feet of soil, that might be enough to keep it from freezing. Maybe a domed top roof, with treated plywood sheathing and covered with a heavy plastic/rubber, like that used for manmade ponds, like koi ponds, would work well... Im thinking maybe gravel floor, cinderblock walls and a wooden roof like that I mentioned above. I could do most of the labor myself, and a neighbor has a big backhoe, hed probably dig a hole fairly cheap... [/QUOTE]
