Built by me and my kids. They had a blast. I built it in panels so that it would be easier to move and set-up. It will be on a 6ft platform. I still have a few things to finish up before it heads to the lease. I used treated fence boards and 1" foam insulation board for the walls. We used fiberglass roofing panels on the top and crack seal to keep the bugs out. Windows use a counterweight system and slide up for maximum window opening use. Trap door in the floor to get in the blind. Kids enjoyed helping with the camo job. Lol

Camo job looks good. Might get your kids to teach my kids how to do that camo paint job!

I finally got the stand out this past weekend on Sunday. We went out Monday afternoon and the boy got him a Holiday hog. Today I am going to wrap the bottom of the stand with camo material that way we can get in and out of it without everything watching us.

Looks good and congrats to the youngin. Ever think about making a space under the blind to park your ranger?

I've thought about it but never got around to doing it.

Very nice looking blind. Memories that you built with that blind with the kids will last forever.
