Been getting fly-bys all morning. Footing is solid. Running a cable from the front side in the water to the tree to help distribute the weight. Need some stuff into middle TOO. Been pretty smooth so far.

Would've had it done a long time ago if they would've had Beener there, that's his native language!

Gonna take a 5 gallon bucket and make me a pooper out of it!
I am friggin' whipped! Got up at 6 and was at the property by 7. Had to unload by myself because my buddy went to our other spot. Met up with him, went to pick up the OSB and meet the other two guys. Got back at 8 and went to town. My one buddy left at noon after we had it all framed out. The other left at 2:30 once we sheeted it out and had it ready for paint and camo. My cousin toughed it out with me and we finished about 5:30. Still some mods to be made once we hunt out of it, but I am really happy with how it turned out. Really couldn't have went any smoother.
Here is the blank pallet...
We had to haul everything 175 yards to the blind along a goat trail. Some stuff we carried, other we redneck'd back there. Here is one such example...
Here we are lag bolting the floor to the first two post we set. This was the scary part and it all went smooth. We will need to add a cable that will support the left front side to the tree behind it to help with settling, it is pretty dang solid...
Almost there...
The back side...
The front side...
What I see from my spot in the blind...
Room for 4. 8" shelf with notches for gun barrels. Room for heater underneath and I'll have room to cook on my end or even out back since this is backed up in some thick brush. I am really happy with how it turned out and can't want to hunt here. We were buzzed by mallards 3 times and geese all day. The geese wanted in here so bad today they couldn't stand it. I hung a camera here today and will pull it before the season hits.

That's sweet! Hope to see pic's of it filled up with ducks in a few weeks.
With a spot like that you should invest in an Ice Eater!!!!
