Re: Permanent Blind Setting 4x4 Pilings

What is the decking............odd looking boards? I like it though. One of the guys from our group had access to as many pallets of these boards as we wanted just laying around in a warehouse (about 500 boards per pallet).

Re: Permanent Blind Setting 4x4 Pilings

Thank you guys for all the help. We ended up using a combination of support methods to hold it up. I had several 8'x2 3/4" hardened steel pipes laying around that were used to help hold it up. The width of them was perfect because standard axle-to-leaf-spring u-bolts fit them perfectly and are ...

The problem I have found with a floating blind is that it is much more expensive. What do y'all use as floats? I've seen pla...

Permanent Blind Setting 4x4 Pilings

My group of hunting buddies is planning to build a new blind two weeks from today. We have most of it planned, but we are stumped on the best way to set 4"x4"x12' pilings that it will be built on. We are dealing with a slough that cannot be drained and has about a foot of water in it. Ther...
