Default RE: home made hunting blind idea

i thought the same thing good idea
But like rhody hunter said pvc not cheap now a days.
I am remodeling my house and trust me it is high right now. i would think you could build the frame with about 50 to 75 dollars worth of pvc then 20 or 30 of pvc. right there your up to 100 bucks a 100 bucks buy a nice pop up blind.
I could see doing ti to leave in a area but with the light weight of the pvc you could move it easy enough in one peice.
One idea i had though not portable. was some 1/4 inch osb/plywoodtake some 2x4 sink them in the ground and nail the osb to the 2bys.
There your talking 4 2x4s three piece of osb for three side $6 right now a sheet for the osb 2.22 for each 2x4. so for 30 bucks you got a 8x8 ground blind.

thinking of building an portable hunting blind.

pvc pipes are my first choice to place the outer material.

burlap for the cover.

the pvc should make it light enough to be carried by one person. pvc joints make it able to be taken down. pvc would let me add on to it, if I want to make it larger to fit more people.

use an old camp chair bag to carry it.
still gotta do some price checking to see if it does save some money. wally world has a pop up for $40.

what ya think?
