Anyone have any suggestions on material for side panels?
No one had a gun in our hands and we just watched it go. One guy threw his beer can at it.. just in really good shape and also hopefully flip the switch a little faster on my wife.

Plywood probably the most chosen, cheap and easy to build with, metal is another option like "R" panel.

Good exterior grade plywood, good paint primer all over double coat the edges, good exterior paint, supports on frame to stop warping. Mine have lasted for 8-10 yr with just re painting as needed.

One place to always paint is the downward edge of wood (bottom edge), water will pool to there and drip, likely the last place that will dry.
