OK, so some windows.
My first goal was to make them waterproof.
I screwed in some J-Trim, to insert the rubber, then placed the wood to get under the rubber, a perfect, silent hinge.

There is no water that can creep under this.

Make it dead, if it isn't dead, Shoot it again.

Great stand and a good way to get the family outdoors, me and the old lady finished ours a few weeks ago.

When I am done with this I just may build an elevated stand, that looks like a nice place to sit too!
I moved mine to the edge of the bean field last night with a hand dolly, my make shift tarp roof didn't even slow the rain down, it must be older than I thought. I will drop by a couple roofers that I know today to see if a chunk of rubber membrane is available, but I am still leaning toward the steel for a roof. The steel I use for roofing is very quiet, it is similar to a typical tin only when you are close you can see the steel is textured, like a golf ball. I used it on my BB-Q roof and the rain doesn't really make any noise. Additionally, the place I have in mind to stick this thing is under a thick tree line where it is not going to see direct rain, and also the reason I could not place the door at the back.

My 5 year old daughter offered to do the job, can't really mess up a camo paint job.
I was thinking of just going to Bass Pro and buying a couple rolls of realtree Hardwoods wall paper.
