              I’m going to. Going up in 2 weeks. Was yours on a 2x6 base and still got blown over. This thing has to be 500lbs easy.

                We have had them on the ground blow over, in the air makes it that much easier.

                What I’ve done to keep them up, a drum cut in half filled with concrete and eye hook in the middle. Turnbucket and some cables, works like a charm straight under blind.

                  How heavy is it?

                    When it’s in pieces 1 person can carry the sides and roof. The base can be rolled. But it’s heavy. Overall the blind is probably 500-600lbs is my guess.

                          Nice build. I have considered windows like that in my next build. Do they seal good to keep water from leaking in especially if it builds up on window seal?

                            That blind looks fantastic! I would build one if I had the time!

                              I’ll let you know. I angled the bottom 2x3 a little to allow for run off and I siliconed the gap. I read that you can make your own kind of weather stripping out of silicone. So basically close the window with a sheet of plastic wrap (like for your food) and run a bead of silicone in the corners like if you were sealing up a corner. Wait 24 hours. Open window. Remove plastic wrap and it should be very weather tight.
