Birth of a Box Stand

That bad boy looks great! I'd put a cot in it and little shelf just the right size for a Coleman stove, and sleep right there so I didn't have to wake up so early. When I woke up I'd put a percolator of coffee on, make a little bacon and eggs with toast. Mmmm Mmmm.

Come to think of it, I'd put a porch on it so I could put my Big Green Egg on it and to have somewhere to pee off of. You could have the ultimate tree-house we all wanted as a kid!

Dang Doc. It's just a hunting blind. :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

And there I sit in a 10 ft. Ladder stand, with the rain on my shoulders and a tear in my eye.
I'm gonna poach it where your not there....

I've seen a few that look like mini beach houses perched up on stilts like they are. I was tempted to suggest a zero clearance fireplace or a full-on old school wood cook stove, but figured that might be going to far.

Never can have too much comfort...

Where did you get those brackets for the legs? I like the look of those better than the ones I just used.

Found the brackets on line at Cedar Break Outfitters, $120. Found some cheaper, but likes these a lot. Very happy with the quality.

I built one very similar last season, I have two total in my area, both on food plots. One is in mature pines, the other in mature hardwoods. They will definitely spoil you while in the woods, but worth the effort to me!

Awesome stands Mirvin264 and Sid52J! Here's a pic of the stand I built for my wife, complete with garage to park her ATV! We call it The Ritz, and for good reason!

Someone mentioned a porch ? lol, by the way, those old aluminum camper shells everyone used to have years ago, can be cut and repurposed as a good roof for a box stand !:)
