Anyone every build a platform to put your pop up blind on? Was thinking of building one on each end of my wheat field to avoid the cost of build two box blinds. I can position the blinds where they will be brushed in by trees.

I have used pallets for flooring.

I've always thought I could sell one or two platforms for that exact reason but never gave it a shot. Something with pressure treated or composite decking for the floor and a ladder leading up to it with a "porch"

Off Season:



Above platform during the season:



Deck is 8 feet by 8 feet and is 12 feet off the ground and over looks a food plot. Gives you space for a 2 man blind with a 2 foot wide "L" shaped sidewalk.

The one below has an identical platform but is 14 feet up and built behind the treeline overlooking a small meadow with a feeder, mineral lick and 7 or 8 apple trees:

We have done several. The only problem is over 6' tall to the floor the angle gets tough to shoot bow if shot is less than 20 yards.

I have 3 popups that I mount about 18" off the ground to keep the varmints out of them. These are made with 6'X6' bases mounted on 18" 4"X4" legs.

I have another that is elevated and I made the platform with 2 4'X8' 3/4" plywood mounted on 2"x 4" frames. The legs are 4X4's using the metal anchors (?) for the corners/legs.

I was thinking of just buying a 6x6 privacy fence section and adding 4x4 legs to get it off the ground 18".

Good information, thanks for posting.

I made mine 8x8, otherwise and am cutting boards and throwing away anything smaller. 4' tall. Very easy build.

I have done mine the same way in the past. The 8x8 give a little walk space and makes it a simple build as well. I usually only lift mine about 2'.
