i can guarantee you the plastic wont last more than a couple years. it will crack and break away. build one out wood for under $100.
Exactly where is this cheap wood to build a good blind?

Here are the pics of my finished stand. water tote & cage = $40.00 + 10.00 for burlap + $15.00 for paint.. not a bad stand for $65.00. I'm going to add a 5' platform to get it off the ground a bit from scrap angle iron I have laying around. There may be a better option than burlap, but i like the way burlap works & it may help with scent control.
