My new blind

It was a fun but time-consuming job. I think it turned out well? Spent a couple of evenings in it thus far and it has stayed pretty warm and very dry.

Ground blind only, right. Hate to try to put up on elevated stand. Bullet proof.

No wonder it was so hard with it laying on it's side like that.

Yes Mustafa - used liquid nails for the foamboard, but 3M spray for the carpet laying on top of the foamboard. Passthru - it would have been easier to do the ceiling when laying on its side. smile And yes Dalee - ground blind only. Put some landscaping timbers under it to give the floor more support as well. The box was $105 through an auction. The windows were by far the most expensive piece, but I really like them.

Great re-use of a container! up Just don't get all PO'd when you show up and it is surrounded with bags of cloths and 2-3 old nassy mattresses grin

the biggest disappointment was cutting the lock off (remember, I bought it at a City auction) - a real Geraldo moment - and finding 1 bad of donated clothes and about 87 fast food trash bags. hammer

I'm just hoping someone else can benefit form the idea - a really quality blind for not much money.

What was the auction? Although, I don't know why I'm asking. After buying several of our kids used cars at auction, my bed companion has banned me from attending them.
