A few years ago my dad and I started building box blinds to be comfortable, dry, warm and stay in the woods longer. The 1st blind was a stationary tower blind on 12' 4x4's, 58" wide by 96" long 6.5' inside height. We've found that this formula gives 2 adults plenty of room. The single man blind is 58"x58", we've built them as stationary and mobile. The tower blind has 6x6 skids with eye bolts on both end and the ladder gets propped up and secured during moving. Ground blinds have 2x12 for skids and can be pulled by a atv.
We built the stationary blinds with 2x4's and the movable blinds have 2x2's. The walls, floor and ceiling have 1/2" foam insulation. J-channel is put over windows and door to deflect rain. The best method for windows has come from using latus track and plaxi glass. This has been the biggest plus in our design cheapest and most effective route. Used corrugated undlean for the roof.
