Elevated Blind

[WoJo]

I am in the final stages of building a box blind on the base of a shipping container. I just have to build the door, put roof on and paint. I am using these to elevator it on 10ft 4x4s:



Question is, do I just nail some 2x4s together and call it done for a ladder?? or do I build proper steps with a handrail?? I am not a small guy (6ft 260lbs). Any other solutions???

I would at least use screws or non slip nails for safety. just my 2cents

Just put a ladder on mine.

That is almost exactly what I am building. How did you do the steps???

Just two 2x6s w/ 2x4 used as steps. use wood screws instead of nails. I used to weigh well over 300lbs and its plenty strong for me.
