      The challenge is going to be to set it up by myself . I'll make in sections then lift it into place.

                Indoor/outdoor thermometer. 10 bucks at Walmart! That way when your cozy in your stand with your coat hanging on the coat hooks, you look over and see how cold it is outside and really appreciate your coat hooks..

                  I thought about that, but a weathe station. Wind speed, rain, direction, temp, history.

                  Usb charging station
                  Remote control lights (interior/exterior) I've already got the 2 channel remote.

                    Looks good, is it going to fit out of the garage?

                      Not assembled

                      It'll have 9 sections.

                        Try to get some pictures of your assembly to help those of us who are mechanically challenged.

                          Hey Luck of three Draw, Just a word of caution, if that paneling is the Mossy Oak I would think twice about using it for outdoors. I used some on my stand rebuild two years ago and it has basically weathered away to nothing. Just a heads up

                            Yep I've used it before. You really need to be aware of any scratches or tears in the finish. I usually leave a can of spray paint in the blind for maintaining the outer shell.

                            The uv rays will also degrade the outer shell as well. It'll look good for a couple years , then like any blind you'll need to repaint it.

                                Sure hope it will fit out the garage door when you are done...... Looks close from the pics.
