    More little things on a budget. First up. A bow saw. Ya might not need a chain saw or be able to afford one but having a small bow saw around with a couple of different blades can be very handy. $10-$20

    Hot glue gun. about $5-$10 can be run off the smallest inverter (60W) and there are many types of glue sticks for cheap. One advantage is unlike having glues in a tube the sticks never go bad.

    And last for today. A pair of bolt cutters. 24-36" are $17-$22 but go on sale for $10-$13 all the time. VERY necessary item. cheap and do not eat a thing.

    That's all for today.

    I have the same question. From the picture it looks like it might be to help add a layer of insulation during the winter, but I'm not sure.

    The window kit can be used for the replacement of glass almost anywhere. It can also be used to build things like a small greenhouse. Can be used to seal off a room. Installed right it is transparent as glass so you can still see through it.

    It can also be used to replace the glass in a car but would need some bracing and edge reinforcement to be used as a windshield.
