  • Опубликовано: 12 янв 2023
  • Follow along as I build a HUGE deer blind that has all the features I've been wanting since I started hunting years ago! It's a 6x8 blind, and just shy of 7ft tall walls, plenty of room to hunt out of and have the family to hunt in too. The "must haves" for this build were custom windows that were ordered from DeerView Windows, insulated walls to retain heat, elevator brackets to have it off the ground, inside panels to make it feel "finished", and other features I'll add once it's all set up and placed beside the food plot (shelves, hooks, space heater, possible solar, etc).
    This build mostly utilizes supplies I had on hand, with the rest being bought at the lumber yard.
    Building a blind is easier than you think, you can do this!

    What sizes did you cut the plywood for the roof? I’m using Solarboard OSB plywood

    • @hurstyoutdoors
      @hurstyoutdoors  4 месяца назад

      Bit of personal preference. I measured the top to have 6-8in overhang on all sides for rain to wash over the metal roof and not make it's way inside, don't have measurements on me but a few sheets will get ya there.

      Yea I have 3 sheets of 7/16 Solar-board osb 4x8 . Just trying to figure out the over hang on all sides for drainage and direct rain to sides to prevent wear and tear. I live in a very humid climate in middle Georgia

      Right on, I think a foot of overhang all around would keep you safe, you doing lean to style roof or peaked? Either way you should be set man. Good luck!

    I am working on a 6x6 of my own and stumped on roof i like your idea can you give some measurements and angles of roof rafters?

    • @hurstyoutdoors
      @hurstyoutdoors  11 месяцев назад

      Man hard to remember the exact measurements, but I do remember I had a foot overhang for the front and back parts (so 8ft boards for ya), and the sides had an overhang of a few inches.
      For the actual rise/run I decided on 1/12 pitch since I did metal roofing. There's some really good vids out there on doing birdsmouth cuts for lean-to roofs that will make it easy mode. Get a cut that works for ya, then just use it as a template for the other boards.

    Did you just angle the notches on rafters to create the slope?

    • @hurstyoutdoors
      @hurstyoutdoors  8 месяцев назад

      Yep, did a birdsmouth cut on the 2x6s to get the slope I wanted for the lean to roof. That way it'll sit on top and be secured to the blind and hold the roof load.

    What type of plywood did you use for the roof and sides

    • @hurstyoutdoors
      @hurstyoutdoors  Год назад

      I used 1/2in untreated plywood for all of it, since I was planning on painting everything on the outside I'm not too worried about it causing issues from the weather/rain.
      Thanks for watching!

    Great ideas! Thanks for sharing! I have a couple questions though! 1) did you fill in the gaps at the top between the roof and the top of the walls? 2) If so, with what, or in what way?

    • @hurstyoutdoors
      @hurstyoutdoors  8 месяцев назад +1

      Hey thanks for watching! Yea definitely, when it came time for the 1/2 plywood exterior walls to go up I butted them up to the roof to fill in the gap, then used silicone caulk to seal everything up. Did the same thing with interior walls too. Tons of silicone to seal everything up and keep out any bugs.

      Nice! Btw… thanks for your quick reply! I’m working on finishing my 8x5. Solid as a tank, and probably weighs about as much! I’m trying to decide between 4x4 treated posts for legs, vs, 4x6, cut back to 4x4 at the ends to accommodate the metal angle bracket post holders,(???). Penny for your thoughts???
      (2x8 Rim joists, 2x6 floor joists, 16” on center. Walls 2x4, 16””oc. I just need to figure out a lean-to roof, and a door and steps. Also, used 3/8” treated plywood for exterior walls. Floor is 3/4” treated plywood. Angle brackets. My concern is the weight. I was hoping to put it 8 ft up, but due to its weight, might drop it to 6 ft elevation.

    • @hurstyoutdoors

      4x4s all day. I thought the same thing about it, but a quick search showed that a single 4x4 can handle a vertical compressive load of 4000+ lbs. With 4 of those it will be no problem. The biggest thing is making sure to have your cross braces on across them to hold everything steady and solid.

    I've been watching your deer blind videos. You're not providing build details or instructions, it's just you building a blind.

    • @hurstyoutdoors

      I modified a plan from "MyOutdoorPlans 6x8 Deer Blind". If you Google that you will go to his site and it lays out everything for ya..wood, cuts, angles. Just depends on what you want yours to look like. Have a good one!
