Another thing that got my wheels turning was a deal called a hayhut.It's made to go over round hay bales but it has vertical openings and should be plenty big

Had a buddy that saved up round bales n made one three bales high. Looked cool, he only gun hunted, but filled tags every year from one.

I have shot them from round bales also but was more talking about the hay hut

Do you have a better picture of how you mounted the legs / elevators on this? I built one just like yours, but not 100% sure where to mount the legs?

Well with all this rain in the forecast I figured I'd get my other blind going.

Went with the brown steel this time. Hope to have it up in the next few weeks

Having issues uploading pictures. It seems it will only let me post one picture at a time

Looks good,so when is someone going to do a step by step or draw up some plans,what windows did you decide to do

 

[Tim]

I made my own out of a sheet of 1/4" plexiglass. I'm going to wrap the whole thing with camo gore-tex.

I like the pics! I've built many hunting blinds and everyone gets to be a little different.

How high up did you put the 360 blind?

How high up did you put the 360 blind?

16' 4x4's, which makes it about 15' floor height.
