Some people on this board are know it all blithering idiots who make claims about what they have supposedly done with no proof to back it up.

Those same people bring to mind certain feminine hygiene products............hint............it rhymes with "WHOOOOOOSH!!!!!!"

Why don't you guys start a blithering idiot bouncing boob thread and let us hunters get back to looking at our fellow hunters ingenuity in building box blinds? confused2

I know I have a tendancy to overbuild, but this things rock solid. I'm 6'4" and i get tired of hitting my head to it has a 7 ft ceiling. I was lazy and didn't want to cut the plywood floor so its 4' X 8'. lots of leg room. The only thing I'm doing different this year is replacing the legs with 10 ft ones so i have a little more height, and I'm moving it to a new location.

Tip: Make sure you use treated lumber, especially for the floor. I used 3/4" treated plywood for mine. Its a little more expensive but better than falling through a rotten floor.

Great job on the stand, I wanted to ask on the roof did you put plywood down first ot is it just the tin? I'm fixing to redo a stand and was wondering about that.

Thanks for showing us the blinds. I have to build one this season and I'm getting some good ideas from all the great photos. I'm not a carpenter so I need all the visual help I can get. If anyone has any plans I'd really appreciate getting a copy.

Here is my blind, it is a 4x6x6. Got it built here in Corpus, very sturdy and good quality. I will probably build a platform for it to raise it about 3ft.

Once i learned that i didn't "NEED" to kill something, and that if i did kill something all the fun stopped and work began, i was a much better hunter.

Not quite Looz-e-anna but you can smell it from there!

San Augustine county. It was "fairy tale" type woods last year, but as you can see, it was clear cut in early '10. No big deal, I think the hunting will actually improve.

It will absolutely improve. Natural borders, i.e. treelines and rivers are huge draws for deer. They did you a favor.

Yup, you're going to have to maintain it though, couple of years and you won't be able to see chit, burn it next year.
