    New blind old wood

    I needed a new blind but lumber prices were too high. My son had just finished replacing a fence for someone and had the old fence laying around. We decided it would make a decent stand so we went to work. It started out 8x7 floor with a 2 foot porch. I used 4x4 on the corners and 2x4 to use as the top and bottom nailers. I also framed out the windows with 2x4. I then wrapped it in tar paper and started putting up the used fence boards. I would have to disassemble it in order to transport it to its final location so it was built in sections. I used more leftover 2x4 for the trusses and found some used tin laying around. I took it apart and loaded it on the trailer and hauled it to the woods. Once I had it reassembled I decided to add some lights and fans running off a trolling motor battery. I tried adding pictures but can’t seem to figure out this tapatalk.

        I found the fans at Walmart in the automotive section. I don’t remember the brand name
