RE: Any ideas for a blind design?
Just for your info, if you plan on leaving it out for a while, DO NOT buy a Big Game Treestand blind (such as the Eclipse). I had one blow away with all eight stakesin place. It was fairly well protected from the wind and held up fine for several weeks. I wrote the company simply suggesting that they include better stakes with the blind and was FIRMLY told that the blind is intended to be put up and taken down DAILY. I informed them that they should not market it to hunters in that case. (Other than that, I really loved the blind.)
