My shooting shacks are nearly complete. Sub zero weather continues with no end in sight.This is one of the coldest winters in recent years so it was time to build a heatable blind. :angel:
Has anyone else built shooting shacks? These are my first, does anyone have any suggestions or pictures of their own?
I still have shooting and entrance doors to build but I am waiting for a heat wave of 20 degrees to finish. It is 21 below zero this morning without the wind chill!
The shack is 4'x8' and 6' 9" tall. The window openings are 44" on the bottom to 54". When sitting it is a perfect rest plus I have telescoping swivel seats which will accomadate just about anyone.
I plan on insulating and the carpet sounds like a good idea. The door opening is 40"s wide and should allow for a wheelchair.
The door will also have a shooting window. It will be framed in 2'x2's. I will rip 2"x4"s to achieve the framing material.
Shelves and hooks to hang gear are also planned. Painting the inside dark has been mentioned and sounds like a good idea.
Coffee Pot optional!
