Installing new windows in the deer Hunting Blind.

- Today the elevated hunting blind is getting new windows. The last windows I made, were plexiglass and ended up breaking in high wind. These windows will help keep the deer hunting blind warmer and dry.

We live in southeastern Illinois on a 41 acres homestead. We just finished building our log cabin overlooking our pond. We are trying to grow our own food and raise livestock. Follow us on our journey living the rural life and developing our property and becoming more self sufficient.
That white will not bother the deer. The thing is they get used to it if it is there all the time.
Great job..cutting the flange off was a great idea...it's not the space shuttle. Keep it simple great job.
If you have a resale store or Salvation store go look for chairs. we picked up 3 good medical office chairs for $5.00 each. you can swivel and move around on the carpet without being heard. Nice job
I used regular glass. Used 2x4 s cut 3/8 groove in each one. Put one above and one below . Placed the glass in the groove when placing the last 2x4 in. Giving room on either end for them to slide they work great ! Only issue is....sometimes if you get freezing rain the rain will enter the groove and freeze the glass up. Have to plan around that issue....which seldom happens.
Happy holiday's to you and your family, stay safe and enjoy.
Hi...... Evan nice to see you, thank you for sharing your video homestead chicken farmer garden 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 👕🐔🐓🐥🐕🐖🐈🌱🐐🎥👍👍👍
Looks great
Nice install, good job!!! Thanks...Peace!!!

Lightly scuff the plastic , get some plastic spray paint in a darker green. For the crack in the glass , you can use packing tape on either side of it to minimize further splitting or you can purchase some glass repair liquid. That would seal the crack up and essentially fix the crack. Blind looks great ! I really enjoy your channel ...
That is a first class hunting house. Always enjoy your videos.
Them buddy heaters are great
That looks really nice, Evan. Nooooo, Evan, we want videos,. What about Christmas preparation videos? You are one of my main source of entertainment. I know it's weird that a female artist loves this stuff, but I find it quite soothing. Show us hunting vids. The withdrawal will be horrible. LOL. Happy Thanksgiving and Merry Christmas. See you in the New Year,
Currently in a video drought here in September 2021, as Evan works a long string of all-niters. Am blessed to have found Field Rows channel covering a real fine family farm in northwest Florida, but looking forward to more CVA videos soon! ruclips.net/video/9dkfkJbkw68/видео.html
😲 Now that is a more modern blind...comfort. 😊👏👏👍☝️
Windows look very nice Evan! Have a wonderful Thanksgiving ! God-bless you and your family!
Great job installing the new windows. Glad to see the nice old buck in your field looking for the doe’s! Have a great hunting season, & relax. Be safe, stay healthy, and, God Bless everyone.
I was able to salvage old school bus windows for my blind. Works great!
Awesome blind, good luck to you all this season!
Evan once the deer get used to the blind it won't matter if it is bright orange it will just be a part of the landscape to them. you done a nice job with the windows, good luck getting your deer. Happy holidays to you and Rebecca.
When I was a kid in Central New York State...After the corn harvest, herds of 150-200 deer would come to gleen the dropped corn. At dusk, my Dad would load us in the back of the pickup to go down the road to watch them move through.
Man i hope y'all get him he a big boy like video 👍
Sweet set up now that you have window's you can crank up the heat,sit back and relax when the rain moves in. I'm going to be working on one built off your design this spring. Thanks for the window tip on the bottom flange
You are so smart. Good luck with the hunt
I guess one can purchase cameo paint in the same shop which sells tartan paint?
What a beautiful buck! Truly Thanksgiving for him, lol!
he is very nice
Love the stand, that buck is a monster ! Goo luck !
Didn’t do to bad cutting that nail fin but next time just score it bend it and it will just snap off on your score. I bead, trim welds and sometimes remove nail fins and J covers for a living
Love too see it
Thx
If you wanted to use your field as a food plot, you could always disc up a few strips after your last hay cutting. Then come back in and plant crimson clover or soybean. Deer REALLY LOVE okra, but it is expensive to use just for deer. Lol. Good luck with the hunt and don't worry about the deer seeing the windows. Itll be part of the background in a week or so.
Happy Hunting wish you the best.
He will be back...... Happy Holidays stay safe and healthy...Hugs from Minnesota
Wow Nice Hunting blind ,
Good video!!
Thanks for sharing.
Windows looks good.
Awesome blind
Us some super thin super glue over the crack in the glass to fill it in. One drop should do it. We have done that to our old single pane windows to make them survive the winter before with no issues AND no rattle.
Happy Thanksgiving.
I have enjoyed you videos over the years . Thanks for sharing all the little things you've done to clean up and modernize the place .
Love all your videos Evan. You're so knowledgeable and a great teacher. Grateful for you and your videos. Thanks for giving of your time and knowledge. I appreciate all you do and hope you had a great Thanksgiving 👍❣️
Hubby's hunting is going the same way! 10 pts on trail cams at 2am, little deer showing up in the scope. Enjoy the season! Happy Thanksgiving!
For the cracked window use clear fingurenail polish. It will help stop it from busting out .
Throw either some silicone caulk or crazy glue to keep weather out of the crack. I think you can get camo sunscreen to cover the glass also. Works great.
Great video. Have a safe, happy and healthy Thanksgiving. Rachel safe at work!😊
Thanks for sharing with us Evan and Rebecca. Great job on the windows in the hunting blind. Good luck harvesting the big buck on the game camera. Happy Thanksgiving to you both and your families.. Fred 👍👍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Great job on the camo siding, all your projects look great.
You need to put glass window on and mr. heat with 20lb propane tank you never get cold no matter what the temp outside is.
It should be sightseeing deer cabin
Lol what??
Happy thanksgiving too you and Rebecca ethan and i hope your hunting session goes well, we hace have had too stop hunting here for a month due too us being put back into lock down for a month that is lifted next Wednesday
JudithB Happy Thanksgiving !!! My neighbor got an 8pt on my land a couple of weeks ago. He usually gives me some of any kill on my land. He said he wants to fill my freezer and his this year, so I will be canning a lot more venison!!
Good luck with the hunting. That nice buck knows when it's safe to come out . 😁😆😅🤣 Hope you & your family have a Happy Thanksgiving.
I thought the bucket was going to be the toilet! 😂
I work for a Window company we make the same kind of Windows you should of got driftwood slider but I love the hunting blind thro I be going hunting tomorrow morning after work hope y'all get a deer thro happy Thanksgiving y'all
Awesome video
have a similar heater, it works really well in a smaller area.
That's how it always goes for me to
Nice hunting blind
Nice looking deer stand , sure beats sitting on a log like I do in PA .Wishing you guys a great holiday season .
I would install windows, a wood stove, a hot plate , a coffee maker, a phone charger, a cot, down blankets, blinds, insulation,
You can still plant the fruit trees off the Edges of the field
Good luck Happy Thanksgiving
Wow we used to hunt deer ...not set in a condo...lol
Awesome video Evan. Have a great Thanksgiving
Never saw your blind before
Great job next time leave a little more space to get some spray foam in between the window and wood for better R value
You should film the hunt
Happy Thanksgiving to you
Happy Thanksgiving Rebecca n Evan
This is my first blind of any kind ruclips.net/user/postUgkxLQGtOO9dXIsNktEeycGoIT6jtJJNTScA so nothing to compare it to. After I receive it, I set it up and left it outside at home for a couple of months to let it start smelling more like outside than human. So far I've been very happy with it. Very roomy - I hunt alone but could easily fit another person comfortably. Put one bolt through the shoot-through mesh, and works as advertised. I've ordered another one, so this noob is totally satisfied. One caveat - the included stakes are pretty useless; you'll want to order something more substantial. I haven't had it long enough to rate durability, but zero issues so far.
Great blind and upgrade ! Happy Thanksgiving!
They have spray paint made for plastic . Do your own camo.
Hard end нам мы тут выживаем best 👍
I don't think you need to worry about the window color. The deer in the area will accustom themselves to it as it is.
Good Lord, man, did you ever hunt office a piece of plywood stretched between trees? It is a nice blind. Good luck.
You really need to put some solar xmas tree lights on that stand. After the season.
Happy Thanksgiving man and hope you get your deer soon!!!
Happy Thanksgiving!!!
Have a good Thanksgiving!
Happy Thanksgiving to y'all
Next you will install the tv as well.
Sorry you didn't get a deer yet but the windows will make the wait at least more comfortable. I am glad you didn't take the young ones....they need to grow a bit longer. Have a Happy Thanksgiving and a Blessed Christmas.
I was just sitting out in tripods and open stands all weekend. I think we need to put up a couple enclosed stands.
Sorry if I sounded a bit confrontational,I love all kinds of meat,never tasted Deer meat but make all our sausages from store bought pork.probably doesn’t taste as good as yours.
You need a recliner 🦃
Hope you had your rifle handy, you know how it goes, when you least expect it...expect it.
Try a drop of super glue on the cracked glass to fix it. Nice idea with the windows.
Love the blind Evan. Looks to be alot better shape this year. Hoping to see some hunting videos! Do you archery hunt?
You should try to figure a way to seal that window crack. Duct tape, silicone, nail polish etc.
@R Brown you could do that. But if you broke it yourself its not the stores fault.
I didn't archery hunt this year. Too busy with everything else.
@@jkdubs2 Also the bottom flange is cut off.
@@dwightl5863 you are correct. I forgot about that part.
@@CountryViewAcres no worries I get that. Got a nice 9 point myself this year with a bow b
Can you do another video of your hunting blind and progress of your area and chestnut 🌰 trees?
Where was your side kick this week end, ? I bet she had to work. How much wind will that stand take ? The windows look really nice. You must be waiting for a big buck. I know nothing about deer hunting but they said a young deer is more tender. But I’m sure you know how to cook whatever you get. Anyway good luck. Happy hunting.
She was behind the camera filming. She trys to stay out of most videos.
@@CountryViewAcres Come on Rebecca,you did so good last week on camera . I was just smiling as you were talking to your chickens. I believe it was last year that you got yourself a deer. Go back out there and get another one. Don’t let Evan get them all lol
Looks like you have exclusive rights to use that stand all for yourself this season!! I assume there aren't any others to hunt from it since I didn't see anyone else helping you with the window install!!! :-) Great lookin' blind! Good luck!!!
i saw a jd manure spreader on facebook market place in Chesterland , Ohio..... might take a peek..... $1350..... i dont know your budget ... but thought i might mention it to you... i know you said you might be looking for one....
Thats a bit of drive. Probably too far away. Looking for one with in 100 miles. If I am patient I usually find a good deal.
put clear nail polish over the crack and Happy Thanksgiving!!
I would have had that blind decked out. Beef up your insulation for better conditioning. I would have installed every other window upside down then it would open to the other side. Rolled solar panels on top will give you quiet power so no noise is casted to scare off game. Since that's on your property I would have ran power lines if you didn't want solar. All in all you got a great deal n location. Happy Thanksgiving to you and the better half.
Is that blind for the gun or for the crossbow?
I guess it is for gun only because the windows too small for crossbow and the windows are white deer might see and scared
👍 👍
Put some tape on both side of broken glass.
Are you planning to put drop cloths on the sides and back so you won’t be skylined?
how would you hunt here in north western Ont. Canada. moose an deer rifle opens 2nd Saturday of Oct, an runs to Dec. 15th, it is average 15 below now, not counting wind, as we get into Dec. it will be 25 to 35 below, we sit in a chair for 3 hours in the morning, go in before day light, and go back at 3pm an sit till dark no blinds alwed on public land. plus be dam hard to carry a portable one in , though the snow
If I was in North western Ontario, I am sure I would be hunting they way you do. But the public land around me doesn't allow guns, archery only. So you would have to carry in a tree climber or a deer blind. So I would rather hunt 200 yards from my house. Where I can use a shotgun (no chambered rifles allowed in Illinois for deer). Where I have the freedom to build a permanent hunting blind. Might as well make more comfortable if I can.
@@CountryViewAcres very interesting your rules, shot gun for deer wow.. the problem with my land, there a ton of deer normally, but building a permanent blind is a waste, as the deer change there entrance to my land all the time. could go for a week, they come in from the back corner, a week later they come up the drive way, it changes, years like this year with a lot of wolf presser, you are lucky if you see a deer, they are around, but they go deep into thick forest, i just had a wolf attack, on my group of 4 month old steers in the middle of the day, i have put pig scraps out for bait to kill them as well as snares, i finally shoot one of 2 huge red fox that have been cleaning out my layers and turkeys every year for the past 3 years, i have had no problem shooting the younger fox, but these 2 big buggers have been impossible to get a shot at or get in a trap. the one i shot last week was over 100 ponds, biggest red fox i even seen
should have painted them before install
Windows worked real well look great. I need to replace the windows in one of our shooting houses. Where did you buy yours? Thanks for sharing👍🏻👍🏻
I wonder if plastic paint will work long term on the window casing too.
I have those same windows in my blind. After I installed them, I discovered you can only remove one window, i have to be real careful how I use my crossbow.
