I don't have a cooler, but will need one soon, so thanks to Liz for asking
about these things. I think the ideal structure would be to build with
structural insulated panels (SIPs), which have rigid urethane or expanded
styrene insulation between sheets of oriented strand board. They are strong
enough to use as the floor, walls, and ceiling, without additional framing,
and they are terrific insulation. They can be worked with standard power
tools. You can't build a better-insulated structure.
