Default Know how to instal but not what to instal.....

Welding fasteners or wiring by hand using the existing hole of the staples ..... either way it should look good and be relatively easy while the dog house is all dis-assembled.

BUT... I still have not figured what substanc eto use..... welding blanckets.... at least what I have seen at the BOC shop is over $10 dollars a foot.... made of a silica spun and wooven fiber.. heaviest weave at 60 oz is even more expensive and only about 1/8 of an inch thick. The remainng asbestos padding I have is approx. 3/16 and I would like to match it for not only heat protection but also sound deadening..... the possibility of obtaining a used welders blanket and doubling up the thickness is one option.... with the materail cut to size of the various panels they would have to be stiched at a shoe makers shop to prevent fraying as the weave is quite large and loose.

Next stop will be furnace/boiler insulation shops to see what is readily available.

Still open to suggestions.

...and I will NOT use Vegemite......
