First I'd like to say how helpful this thread has been for me. A lot of great ideas and designs here. I decided I was going to copy the 1x1 stick frame design that has the notches in the insulation to hold it in.
Before I start building, has anyone tried or thought through doing a friction fit on this design instead of cutting notches. The idea would be to have the front and back flush with the wood and the frame would hold it in by being ever so slightly tighter than 2'x4'. Once the frame is built you'd just squeeze in the insulation.
My much handier than me Father in law suggested this as a way to save cutting tons of notches and it also frees up a bit of frontal/rear surface area at the expense of the sides.
