I am building some new box blinds and wanted some of your ideas on how you guy's open and close the windows on your stands if available? Some ideas that I know about are using a small rope or cable to hold the window open. Other ideas are with paint sticks with a bunch of holes drilles in it for opening the window at different heights. What else any ideas are appreciated.

Also what are some of your cool ideas for the insides of the stands. One of mine is using a battery powered closet light that you push to turn on and off for when it's dark.

It sounds as though you already have it nailed there Bobo21 ,
BTW I've seen those closet lights in a red version .

Put a couple shelves in the corners. Great place to lay your binos, cup of coffee, or any other misc stuff that we tote with us now days. Also, get a comfortable chair and build your shooting house big enough to accomodate it and the windows at the right height for it. For the windows, plexiglass with holes drilled and nylon strings run up through the wall right under your roof overhang and a loop with a nail in the wall, will give you a relatively quiet way to open and secure your windows. Also, put carpet around the walls and floor to add qietness to your stand. Depending on your location and how cold the winter gets, you can use newspaper between the walls for insulation and to help keep things quiet as well. This seems like a lot of additions, but if you like to hunt all day in an area, comfort makes all the difference in the world.

swivel seat in the middle, shelves like gobbling buck said, and run some electricity out there so u can take a small plug in heater and stay warm!!!! lol g/l

If you would like a good small space heater, you can make one yourself with a coffee can, a roll of TP, and a bottle of rubbing alcohol. Be careful because the coffee can will get hot. You can use 2 cans putting one inside the other with sand underneath and around the sides to help with this problem. The TP acts as a wick and usually you will go through 2 or 3 bottles of alcohol before it burns completely up. The alcohol also burns with no visible flame and is oderless. ONCE AGAIN.......BE CAREFUL.

Central heat and air, definitely!

Well if your gonna run electricity to it why not have a TV a fridgerator and microwave a heater a computer...... that would be cool though

lol. me and my bro built a crappy tripod out of old leftover 2*4's with some old nails and screws. and a skateboead that we broke in half. lol. it was fun though.
