Trailer Blind build

[BlueSpruceOutfitters]

So, I figured I'd keep you guys updated with my newest project. I have an old, 4x8 trailer in my wood shed, it was full of junk that we moved into it when we moved in 10 years ago. We decided that this is the year we empty it, strip it down and build a mobile blind.

Step 1: strip down,clean off &
start spraying with rust reformer

I like where your going with that.

I’ve been thinking similar thoughts with this freebie.

Thanks for sharing! I've been thinking of doing this myself. Just looking for a dilapidated trailer in someone's front yard for sale! LOL

Been thinking about doing the same with an old manure spreader or similar.

Going to be awesome

You dirty bastards just added another project to my already long list! I’ll definitely be following along.

F^^K! I asked about a trailer last night on market place. It was 4x7 and no sides on it. He gave me size and dropped price to 150. (I wanted a 5 x 8) Got ahold of him after reading this~~ said it's gone! Talk about snoozin and loozin....LOL.

I’ve had the same idea for awhile and a trailer to do it with, just haven’t started. Looking forward to seeing this one!

Sweet wife’s company made one on a scissor lift for a client. It was insane.

I’ve got two trailers sitting in the weeds...hmmm

I also have 4 screw jacks to stabilize it....hmm, wheels are turning.

Top coated with rust protector and bottom cleaned and about to be undercoated

I shot a turkey out of a trailer blind this past spring. Had jack stands at all four corners. It was as stable as it gets. Definitely got my wheels turning that’s for sure. I’ll make one... someday.

Drinking bourbon while doing projects is a bad idea.... The blind will now have a solar power unit [emoji854]

Said absolutely no one... EVER...

Said absolutely no one... EVER...

That’s pretty much my opinion as well

Solar will be useful for your heat.

This will be fun to watch. There is a FB page called DIY Deer Blinds that has a lot of great ideas but not many actually go through the entire build. Definitely looking forward to this!
