Good job man! Thanks Karl!
Cool thanks for the video sir im impressed
Is there a way to get a material list & instructions/cut measurements? Have a very good idea but trying to avoid wood waste. I’m ok paying for em. Thank you.
Do you put angle on roof?
Did you leave the roof just house wrapped? If so, how has that held up over the seasons? I'd think the weather/winds would tear it off eventually.
Is there a reason you didn't go 4×8? Not criticizing just figure less cutting lol. Great video BTW
Hi fellows. I think you need to take some time and take a fast tour on Woodprix website.
Love the design bro but it’s better to use all treated wood
How high is the blind box
How tall are your walls and shooting rest?
Awesome simple build. Have you found that having the roof pitched is unnecessary?
Try some branches to camo the opening
Excellent!
Nice try. As a carpenter I can say you made a few mistakes. Your blind would never hold up where I hunt.
Have you never heard of a jigsaw?
Can you furnish a materials list?
This time I will use woodprix instructions to make it.
one of THE BEST shoot shacks I've seen on here! I'm wanting to build 2 or 3 of these shacks for next season!
What's a blind deer going to do with a box stand?
good video. Don't pay attention to negative comments. It all depends if you want a solid foundation and stand. Keep up the good work.
crap video a person dont know were u are
Hey how much did that particular blind cost you to build all together? I like that style and would like to build a couple like it. It seems like it would be comfortable! Really nice sir!
$120 worth of elevators(4), $150 worth of 2 x 4''s (30), $8 worth of 4 x 8 OSB, $48 worth of 4 x 4's treated (4), $45 for 3 x 6 corrugated metal for roof (2 panels) -much better than anything else; and $75 of 6" fence pickets (60), $35 for 3 boxes of 3 1/2" deck screws; $10 for lag bolts (4), and $25 of miscellaneous items such as hinges (8 window; 2 door), etc. should just about get this project built. I build a bunch of these things and this is a great video showing a general process of construction. Total cost of materials per above is about $516, tax extra. I build mine largely with salvaged materials obtained for free. I'll be posting a video in the next few days on my channel of a build currently in process if any of your viewers might want to see a salvaged material project go up step by step. PS. Getting salvaged materials is not hard to do. I even use old fence pickets from fencing being torn down. Just toss any really bad boards and use the rest. They are already weathered and give an instant finished look to the project. PPS> In cold climates, throw in a couple tubes of caulking and seal everything. You will be glad you did when those winter winds howl. Also a tight box helps keep out wasps who build nests inside during the summer to greet you when you return each fall.
I found using 2 x 2 and 1/4 in plywood is loads lighter. Also, you can go to any "bed liner" store and they will give you the old drop in bedliners. Cut one of those for a top. Being black they are almost line a solar heater in the right setting. I always think weight and ease of assembly
How. Are you lifting that now
I use half inch treated plywood as my sides and then use outdoor paint to further its life and appearance. I also slant my roof to help make sure when the roof bows water doesnt pool. Also I paint the inside black. Another advantage to plywood is there is no light behind you peaking through, when you move the light behind you moves alerting the deer something ain't right.
I was cringing the entire time you were hammering your chisel into wood on concrete. Put a backing board under that thing man. 🙂
I think you can learn more about it on woodprix website.
Looks great! Well done.
how much did it cost to build the actual box blind part not the elevators
I prefer to build with woodprix plans.
plans from woodprix are awesome!
Send me plans
Just do it yourself, go to wood prix page and learn how .
Check woodprix mates. I love it to my wooden projects.
My works too. Used woodprix handbooks and build it with no problems.
Thanks!!!

Nice blind look straight and plumb.
How many fence boards did u use
How much did you spend in total ?

looked for the website to buy plans and could not find it?
Can you show how to build a box stand out of pallets
Hey how tall are the walls ?
I am sure you'll learn how to make it if you'll read WoodPrix HANDBOOKS from cover to cover 🙂
I checked a lot of woodworking handbooks. Those from woodprix are the best I think.
Parts list please
