    I got a little more done this weekend.
    Corners and top of walls got some trim only 2 pieces of trim left but I need to cut the edges of the roof sheets and didn’t feel like doing it today.
    Deer View door installed.



    Deer View window in front.



    I ordered my door and windows before I started building the trailer so I ordered 36” side windows but that was for a 48” box. Because the trailer was not wide enough for that I had to reduce the size of the box and the side windows will not fit. I have ordered more windows from Deer View and they will be ready later this week. What a great company to deal with, they are making custom width windows of 30” and will have them ready in less than a week.

                        Thanks for the compliments, this will be the “fanciest” blind I have ever hunted out of. I am over budget but I think I have all the material I need to finish it up, except I am one sheet short on the paneling but I’m two sheets over on insulation so I should be able to take them back and that should cover the cost on the paneling. I got a little more done last night but did not take any pictures.

                        Up next will be putting up the paneling on the other two walls which I will do tonight “weather permitting” and then painting the inside black. After that, trim around the windows, door, corners and putting down carpet on the floor. Then I will build a shelf that will go under the windows and a small shelf overhead to keep supplies on like bottled water, WD 40, wasp spray, 1# propane bottles for the heater and last but not least T.P. Then it will be back on the outside to finish sealing up around the windows and door, then a coat or two of paint on the siding so this thing will last long enough to (a) I get too old to hunt or (b) the cost of hunting gets so high I have to give it up.

                                Thanks

                                No, I put some super thin plywood like the thickness of paneling up and painted it. I think the foam board would be too slick to hold paint. The paint I used is a water base interior latex house paint and had it mixed flat black from Home Depot.
