Portable blind frame work ideas
Permalink  
 


I need some help fellas. I want to build a portable blind thats quick and easy to assemble in the field Other than brushing in. It needs four sides so we can use it in the middle of a large feild, big enough for two hunters sitting side by side, and light weight.

So if you would please post your pictures and ideas.

I think you saw my recent post on the evolution of my blinds. it was a response to the thread titled, "Who Hunts Them From The Woods" by RAIN-N-CROWS. In that one, I left out the part of using a simple camouflaged fabric screen as Stage # 2, following Stage #1, trying to hide behind trees. All the other stages of development are pretty much in my posting with about 9 photos. The PVC pipe design shown is light, and is supported by the camouflage net being staked down, which supports all the brushing up with white pine boughs and occasionally other leafy stuff I stumble upon, just to break it up. The "pop-down" top is actually a really cool design, but over-engineered. i.e., I learned that it really wasn't necessary, so I ditched it and used the camo net pieces to construct the "sun ball." The blind disassembles into six pieces, and weighs next to nothing. Couple of more photos of the PVC frame below. This idea was developed from the last two sketches, discovered in a lost collection of Leonardo da Vinci's drawings wink.
