How I Built My Deer Blind Build on a Budget - A Hunters Clubhouse

[@TheOhioOutdoorsman1]

I plan on making another blind just like this soon but this time actually walk through the plans to build it. The build total came out to about $540 USD as is but I think we can do it for a little cheaper once wood prices come down a bit. Still.. $540 for blind like this is not bad at all.

So double your budget!! But it’s ok 1- Would recommend hinging the trap door to swing to the outside wall. So when you push in you can access the main floor. 2. Paint it black on the inside can’t see inside. 3. Insulated the floor on the underneath. 4. Carpet. Padding/Noise reduction. 5. Cut the bottom of plastic gallon with a hose flip it upside down hang to a corner. 6. Seal everything with spray foam. Wasps, mice and animals 7, give it a name like x girlfriend 1. 8. Add hangers. Coats etc. 9. Shelves. 10. Vertical window for bow and arrow. 11. Ladder / in out safety. Remember: winter snow. Wet/ mud. Heavy clothing, Wet boots. Need good traction going in/out. . Good job Have fun.

Also I’m going to cut branches with leaves and use them and spray paint over them to camo the walls a little better

what is the thickness of OSB used for the walls?

[@TheOhioOutdoorsman1]

1/2 inch because it was was was available.

[@gregplatt3042]

Is the car still in the pond?

[@TheOhioOutdoorsman1]

Yes. For now, the car had to stay in there because I did not have the means to get it out and the pond needed some structure for the fish.

[@christophersagan5573]

For the materials you used it looks very well constructed! How is it for noise in the wind? I’m thinking of using your idea might go with 2x4 studs for walls just a little more sturdy! I’ve got some 1/2 Lexi glsss clear I’m going to use for windows thinking of how to camouflage them anybody got any ideas lmk thanks

Leave the plexi clear and make sure it hinges into or slides on the inside of the blind. Then take some mesh window screen, spray paint it camo (before you attach it to the blind), then staple or tack it up on the outside of the window with vertical splits cut for the rifle to push through without hindering the view, scope, or sights. Basically a shoot-through screen in front of the clear plexiglass. Functions like a sniper scope lens cover that breaks up glare but still allows the view to remain clear enough.

I am also in the Buckeye state. (Northwest Ohio). Check out my diy build. You get some ideas to add to your blind. Good luck this year.
