Your box blind looks like one of ours.
We used 6x6 treated post and put all 4 in the ground at once. We didn't put no crete in the holes in case we want to move them.
Our next step was to lift the floor that was allready pre-made the post fit right in the slots that were pre-built.
Each wall was allready built in the shop with screws and was put together.
Then we installed the roof.
Worked very easy.
Our box blind is located in a rough area and my fourwheeler and our snowmobile trailer did the job to get it there.
All blinds are insulted just like our homes. The floors are also are insulated and to where no rodents,spiders or snakes can get in.
We have 4 different box blinds so 4 different windows.
On my shanny the windows are on hinges and swings up works great and its out of the way. My brothers are tinted and sit in little slots and easily can be removed and set above you on a small loft.
My oldest brothers swing in and also very easy.
I always get the window open nice and easy and be careful that they don't see the reflection when you open them.
The window height depends what your going to be using it for gun or bow. We don't bowhunt out of any of them.
When were building them we sit in them and get a goodheight where the muzzeloader will be comfortable and so were not trying to sit up to look out.
My brother never did this and on the bottom of his cushioned chair we had to put 4x4 blocks so he could see out. Lesson learned.
We all 3 work on big construction jobs a lot, so we get rubber roofing for the roof works great and quiet. Mine has been in the timber for 4 years and still looks like the day I put it on.
We have built another deer shanny that is even bigger it is for Dad and the grandkids, a little to muddy to set it yet.

This is my brothers deer shany fits 3, windows are slightly to high but still gets the job done.
