the past few months & super storms have caused me to think about safe rooms
i have kicked around several ideas, various components, looked at several different tested structures
if i was by myself and a dog it would be a plastic tank from tractor supply buried in the earth(500.00 plus excavation)
this morning i found the following page
http://www.huts.com/Huts%27sBallisticTest.htm
i did a quick run on the materials--looks like a 5 x 10 x 6 high could be built for 1500.00 or thereabouts
this would be the gyp board and osb with concrete filled voids
