I am about to start my build on a 5x6x7 gun blind with 6' legs. Has anyone ever used the elevator brackets to get your blind off the ground? Any experience?



God is deep but he is not complicated.

I used them and they made it very easy and stable.

Only down side is the 80.00 price tag.



I'm thankful for the things i have and all the things i don't

Ive used them, they work perfect.
IMO absolutely the fastest easiest way to build a wood tower blind base and get it in the air.

i used them on my 6'x6' platform. they seem safer than just bolting the legs to the platform. i used 7' 4x4s which made the base a little over 8'x8'. the cross braces are a must because it is a little wiggly without them. i didn't raise the box blind up with the legs but did add it after it was up in sections. very sturdy but i did use 2"x6"s for the frame of the platform base.
