Built a 4'x'6 from a drawing I found online last year. I modified the plans to make it taller, from 6-ft to 7-ft. I'm 6'6" and I didn't like the idea of crouching any time I needed to stand up. I redid the drawing and instructions for my brother-in-law to build this year. He's about 6'4". I have a PDF file with the drawings, material list, cut list, and photos if anyone is interested. It was easy to build, is fairly light, and so far has been dry and durable. The photos below are the stand frame, the stand ready to trailer, and the stand on legs. The last photo is my son-in-law, with his first deer shot from my stand. It is a Texas Big Game low fence, typical, winner for Region 6 (East Texas) for 2013-14. It was measured as 159 4/8 B&C points. If you'd like me to email a copy of the instructions to you, send me your email by private message.

my last box stand i built is bout 4 1/2' off ground half height of normal stand & in middle has cut out for extended area to put feet, so can stand up ta stretch. am sure few will figure out what trying to explain, & have seen one like it.  got a model at house, can't send pic's, its the opposite. full length box stand height your choosing, set it on high-line or edge of tree line like a dimmond. two sides on open area & two sides wood line. --^-- corner that sits in wood line is the seat. & leg area is all around, reverse of the extended feet stand. door is on inside of wood line. just slide in. seat is in closed box with toilet seat. If ya need to make a deposit lift seat, make deposit, do paper work. & at end of hunt, theirs a door in back ya can take 5gal. bucket out ta empty. your thoughts

Honestly Tboyde that hay bale blind is excellent! I like the simplicity of it. I think I'd just attach the hay with some sort of spray on glue and just do layers and layers of it. Keep it simple. Again excellent design.

Slow to respond... I'd suggest using some chicken wire on the outside of the frame to hold down a thick layer of hay. You could also find some of the mesh wrap that is used for big round bales. Wrap that around a layer of hay over your frame.

Over 5 years and my plans are still floating around. The dimensions were a little ruff and just there for reference. Also this was a light weight take down blind where you could build it in your garage and reassemble it in the field. Thats the reason it has 1-1/2" framing instead of 2 x 4..
