Anybody have an idea on how much bracing would be needed for the stand legs? Using elevator brackets to raise this thing 4ft most likely.

I don’t have any cross bracing on the roof but the 2x3’s rest on top of the frame so it shouldn’t really sag. I’ve stood on the roof with the plywood up and it was fine. Look at the last picture in my 1st post. It shows the slope. It’s not much but it’s lidtsd about 2.5 inches higher in the front vs the back.

Smartside is the bomb. When Harvey hit a guy I know got his barn flooded. He had skinned the inside of the barn with smartside. He washed the mud off, and it was good to go. No warp, peel, or damage was noted. That blind should last a long time. I hope you have plenty help putting it up, it's gonna weigh a ton.
