So I was looking for an inexpensive option for a bow blind that would hold up better than a pop-up. I got a wild hair and used old fence panels. I had some osb I used for the roof that I will put barn tin on later. I am going to use black plastic on the inside to make it darker and staple it up. I have I window left to finish. All in I will be about $65 in the blind. [Linked Image]

That will hunt. But...since you got the pallet...I think it needs an old tire on the roof. bolt

Check for snakes before you get comfy. up

I've spent many hours in much less. nice inexpensive set up. One that I used a lot years ago, you always needed to check for snakes and skunks before entering and I always kept a close eye while in there also.

That’ll work.
I built 4 of these this year. Free 2x4’s that I split, free tin, I put tongue n groove on the floor, free also.
Plexus glass windows, screws latches and paint I bought.

Looks good! Last couple of years I have had fence with plastic and burlap.

I have taken many many deer sitting on a five gallon bucket inside three tractor tires stacked up. Lay a sandbag on top and it is like shooting off a bench. The insides of the tires are perfect for storing gear, binoculars, etc. Many times you can get them for free if you offer to haul them off.
