I am in the process (design phase) of building a new duck blind on one of my ponds, and I was wondering what everyone else has used in the past.

I was looking into the following:
[ol][*]having my uncle weld a huge box for me to bury[*]building one out of wood[*]simply moving logs around and pulling up a chair[/ol]
Does anyone know where I could buy an already manufactured blind that will sit in the water?

Put them in a hole if you can

This summer my friend and I constructed a 10 foot long by 6 foot wide blind out of ply-wood. We made the front, back, 2 sides, roof, and floor seperatly, and then using some brackets we assemble it at the marsh we hunt (its public land so we have to take it down after the season). Also we sunk about 12 pallets underneath it so it wont sink at all. Also we made a huge bench seat that opens up to a huge storage area.

I got a concrete septic tank ( a second )with out a lid .
Dug a big hole , 2 X as wide as the tank , used steel plate and cable to ancore it .
You need to ancore it down .
A concrete tank will float , I found this out the hard way .
Buryed it with 6-8" above grade
I then built a roof that will slide to the rear , powered by shock cord .
Did this 6-7 years back .
I checked it a few days back .
Still in great shape .
Just need to chop a little grass for the roof to slide .
