Hard to tell from the pics but are you leaving an overhang on each panel to cover any gaps when assembled or do the angles take care of it?

I'll be building one soon trying to figure out if I'm building the frame then skinning or doing in sections and hoping it seals well when I place it

I left no overhang and the angles took care of it. I built all the walls before and they all fit perfect.

That is a really nice blind. So on the 8 vertical walls, how do you attatch them to one another? Or are they just side by side and only screwed into the floor and roof?

I screw the walls to the floor and screw the walls together with 2 1/2 inch deck screws along with liquid nail on everything that gets screwed together.

Don't see how it can get any better than that. Very nice!!!!

What thickness plywood for the walls? What thickness for the floor? What thickness for the roof.

I use 3/8 inch for the walls and ceiling and 3/4 inch for the floor.

That is one sick bow blind. You are very talented. I am always amazed what I see people build on the GS.

Thx for the plywood thicknesses. I'm close to starting on one of these also. I sent you a PM but haven't heard back so I'll post the question here. What is each sides width and height ?
