I used to sandwich the wood around my doors with a hardwood because I had some dang house chewers. I had a bunch of maple that I had had milled. I had a few that would eat the whole front of a house in no time. I had one so bad that I made an angle iron frame. She used to crap presto logs.
Haha, you noticed that one, yeah Chopper tore that opening up, I’m going to have to do what you said, he also ate some of the roof off of his. But the thick plywood has enough layers to keep the water out for now
