Buildable in a weekend, with common tools.You don’t even need to own power tools to build this blind, though if you can borrow a chop saw and a drill-driver, you’ll be done in time for football.Made of stuff you can get at Home Depot for $500.Pandemic prices were a killer, but we got close with our build and have a version that comes in under five bills. We used common lumber, though, so...Portable. More or less.Like all hunters, we have an idea where our local deer hang out. Like all hunters, there’s a good chance we’re completely wrong. We designed the DJ Stand to easily fit in the...Protected from the elements.In our region, pre-dawn hunts are usually below freezing and sometimes below zero. In our area, the wind is no joke. Our blind makes long sits a lot more bearable.If the DJ booth were an animal, the floor would be its spine. It’s the structural core of the entire project, so we built it like we were building a house. In fact, it’s exactly like a residential subfloor. If you’re going to make this a ground blind, you might consider pressure-treated 2x4s, which will better withstand contact with wet ground. Bec...
The walls rise up from the floor, and their tops are cut at 15-degree angles to accommodate the pitch of the roof. The tops of the front (longer) posts should be 78.5” from the top of the angled cut to the top edge of the floor’s perimeter 2×4 joist (78” to the floor); the tops of the rear (shorter) posts should be 66.5” from the top of the angled ...
We chose a very simple, single-pitch roof. It’ll shed water, and only has an overhang on the backside—it keeps water from running into our door, and means you can lay it on three of its four sides without crushing anything. Because we don’t have to worry about much debris, ours is not structural in any way. We made the taller side 6’6” and cut the ...
We went back and forth a lot about the cladding. Derek wanted to use corrugated metal roofing: it is fairly lightweight, cheap, and imparts a ton of rigidity to the overall structure. Joe, who is fidgety, was afraid he’d sound like a pinball bouncing around in a snare drum and spook every buck in North America if you put him inside a metal box. Com...
We bought 10-foot, pressure-treated 4x4s and didn’t even trim them. (It’s not like we’re posting up on a dance floor.) We ran the legs three feet up the sides of the blind, elevating us seven feet off the ground. We attached each leg with 10-inch-long ½” carriage bolts; two per side go through above the floor, securing to the corner 4×4 posts of th...
Our blind is designed to fit, tailgate down, in the smallest-available bed of a modern Ford F-150—because pretty much everybody either has one or knows someone who can loan them one. With the legs attached, it’s probably not safe to drive on the highway, but you could bump around your own property (we did, and it was fine) or cruise down a gravel r...
Once your blind is up, it’s probably a good idea to use guy lines to anchor it. We used 15” ground anchors and tied them to the carriage bolts where they extended through the floor frame. Please don’t just stand this thing up and call it good. It’s pretty stable until you get two guys up there or there’s a 30 mph wind. Use the guy lines.
We keep our door shut with a bungee cord that goes into an eye hook on the underside of the blind. Once inside, we have a tie that keeps it closed, just like on the windows. You might have noticed that we didn’t build a ladder? Why build a ladder when you probably have one kicking around the house that you can donate to the blind for a couple month...
We bought everything for this project at Home Depot. We’re not shilling for those guys, but wanted to make something almost anyone could buy. If we weren’t doing this for The Masses, we’d support our local hardware store. Shoutout to Herrington’s! Anyway, here’s a list of stuff you can get at Big Orange and turn into a DJ Stand: SHEATHING Corrugate...
Jun 23, 2014 · In order to have access to the hunting blind, we recommend you to frame the door, as described in the diagram. Work with attention and check if the corners are square. Drill pilot holes through the components before inserting the screws, to prevent the wood from splitting.
Build the Frame: Using 2x4s, construct a square or rectangular frame for your blind’s base, walls, and roof. Attach Walls : Cut plywood or siding to fit the frame and screw it in place. Remember to leave openings for windows and the door.
Frame, legs, and floor. For the base (frame) of your blind, you want to get as good of lumber as you can get your hands on. If your blind is going to be shorter than 6 feet, you can get some 4-by-4s for the legs. If you want it to be higher, move up to 4-by-6s or 6-by-6s.
