Tower stand build

[josephmrtn]

Finally got around to building a tower stand this week overlooking one of my prime spots. It's not completely done but it's getting pretty close. Planning on closing it on a bit more and possibly adding windows so a buddy heater keeps it nice and toasty inside. Used an old tonneau cover as the roof since I didn't have any roofing metal available and lined the floor with carpet. Should make an awesome place to take the kiddos hunting with me. Although I think I might be even more excited about it than my son if that's possible

Looks great! Love the shooting views!

Forgot to post pictures of the stand pretty much complete. I used pieces of old vinyl siding to close it in. I made vertical windows in the corners with camo cloth windows that can be closed. Any thoughts on whether I should camouflage the siding to blend in better? I am planning on painting the whole interior black at some point to hide movement within better.

What siding ? JK ,over time the deer wont even pay attention to it.

First I love that you reused stuff you had laying around to make your stand . Second If it were my stand I wouldn’t worry about painting the outside, the deer don’t care one way or the other they’ll get used to it.

Ok in the interest of art I would get a can of brown and green spray-paint and give it some patterns. The deer don't care but come on have some pride man lol!!

 

Just harassing ya!! You will love those crappy weather days in there!

Great idea for those vertical side windows! Can you draw and shoot a bow out of it?

You could out of the vertical ones. The front would be difficult however because of my long arms lol
