I biult this tree stand late last winter in my garage in sections .
It is 6 x 8 feet .w and long and 6x8 foot pitch for the roof.
I wanted something big enough to shoot my bow out of .
I biult 4 walls and a roof out or 2x4s and plywood and obs .
I then biult the floor out of pressure treeted 2x8s and 1/2 inch cdx.
I used 6 4x4s that are 12 feet long .
I fist dug by hand the 6 holes abought 1and 1/2 feet deep give or take , then leveled it .
I used my TC30 Tractor to lift it up .
I anchored it with 4 metal posts and cable .
Then cemented the 4x4s in the ground with rocks and cement to holed it down .
A few days later ( actualy last Thursday ) My son gave me a hand to put up the walls The tractor and loader made it a lot easier to get the sections up but it was still a brutal job.
I,m still soar from lifting because the last wall had to go in just right and it was the biggest wall 8 x 8 feet .
I also painted it in camo before it was put up .
The floor is abought 10 1/2 feet off the ground . Pretty high .
Anyways I want somthing decent and better then I previously had . ( non enclosed stand ,
This is my 2nd enclosed stand I biult on my huinting property in the last 2 years .
Not sure if you noticed but it has 7 hinged plexy glass windows and a door in the rear .
