anybody think this will work? i plan on cuttin the front out of the can and leaving the wheels. also, prob either make the doors out of pvc pipe or just salvage the front i cut out and rig it somehow.

looks like it will work, very creative... but you can find layout blinds on sale pretty cheap sometimes

I gues it would.:huh: Problem is unless you just want to build one for yourself, it may be cheaper to just buy one. My past attemps at things like this is..Half way through I end up throwing them in the trash can. Scrapping the whole project with more time and money involved than it would have taken to buy one. You may have more patience than me.

saw one in wildfowl magazine bloats and blinds sections a while back. guy loved it. said it was great because he could haul a lot of decoys into a field by himself.

If it doesn't work, thenyou won't have a trash can to throw it in, nonetheless, I like the idea. Good luck with all them new dekes this year, clean em up, cause they're kinda DIRTY.

How about cutting the back rest off of an old lounge chair? Then you would be able to adjust it to wherever you want it.

Now you just need to take one of the mega goose decoys, split it down the middle and rig it on the doors.

Not a bad idea is it? Just have to build some kind of wire frame to keep the shell from sagging.
 
If we all throw in a dollar there sport, you can get yourself a real layout blind. I dont want to see no youngen laying in a cut up trash can. it just aint american.
