- Come along as I take you on a tour of the interior of this raised hunting blind we built last year. The blind is located on our 80 wooded acres of private property located in Northeastern Michigan. I will also show you the food plot that this deer blind overlooks and give you some of the specs on the build. #RaisedHuntingBlind #RaisedDeerBlind #DIYDeerBlind #MegaHuntingBlind #deerhunting

** About Todd's Projects and Outdoor Journal **
Welcome, my name is Todd. My wife Laura and I live in a small town located in Michigan. We also have a cabin and 80 acres of woods located about 2.5 hours North of our home.
We're hands-on DIY people and we enjoy spending time outdoors doing the things that we love. Riding motorcycles, mini-bikes, horses, camping, canoeing / kayaking, Jeep ORVing, hunting, fishing, target shooting, working to improve whitetail deer and wildlife habitat on our property, and more...
I started this channel because it allows me to share projects, experiences, my favorite tools, accessories, useful products and more with my family, friends and a community of people who have similar interests to mine. I'm an avid UA-cam watcher and over the years I've learned a great deal from people who've taken the time to share their information with the YT community. This is my way of giving back.

I can see a fold down table and a propane camp stove fitting in quite well and even a old coffee pot .lol
That's one of the best built blinds I've seen! An overhead bunk? Heck yeah!!! haha
Nice blind but what's most awesome is you get the little ones involved I'm hoping someday I can get one of my granddaughters to hunt with me
I hope so too! Thanks for watching...
Very nicely done! I use office chair from costco in my blind since i am in there hunting unwanted critters all night. I also use 1/4" poly carbonate smoke color so they can't see you.
Thanks Todd for the tour. Really nice raised hunting blind. 👍🏽🙂
Thanks
I like the blind. However, I would not use the carpet squares for the floor. I was a facilities Director for a school district for 28 years. And, one thing I learned about carpet squares is that you do not want to use them anywhere there could be water. Like the floor of your blind in the winter. The tiles are rubber backed, and will mildew and stink when water gets under them.
Great input, thanks
Very excited to see an update next year. Thanks for the series.
Thanks for watching.
PRO!!!...I will be using this as a template when mine goes up
Thanks, you can check out the entire build including the staircase build on my channel. Good luck on your build.
Fantastic job! 👍🏻
Enjoy and thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching. Happy Thanksgiving...
Very Nice, Yes…hunting alone its big because I have one like that and wish I could cut it down to a 4 x 5, however it’s 12 feet in the air.
Beautiful piece of land Todd. The blind looks great. I found you due to our shared love for the Sport Glide. I am also an outdoorsman. Thanks for the content.
Thanks for watching and commenting, safe riding my friend...
I've seen some here in Iowa they set a telephone pole and run electricity so they are on the grid 😂😂😂😂
Wouldn’t rain blown in from the side collect on top of the foam window weather strip and pool/seep down into your wall?
No, first of all, the windows are on the north side of the building and we rarely have winds out of the north blowing south. Next it's no different than your car windows. There is a tight enough seal around the window that we haven't had any water stains on the inside window sills. Thanks for watching and commenting.
@@ToddsProjectsandOutdoorJournal great, thanks for the feedback, I hope to build a blind like this one day. That rough wood interior looks awesome! Only thing I’d add to make it the ultimate blind is a little balcony on the back side of blind in case you want to step out for some fresh air.
I like those tripods. where did u get them n how much?
BOG FieldPod,. You can look them up on Amazon. There are several different styles and sizes. The tree stand version works great for bolting down inside of a blind with a single window. That style gets the legs of the tripod out of the way. Good luck.
Beautiful build. I’ve got a few questions though. I’m going to be building a new blind soon. What height are your windows at. And is your chair height adjustable. My windows will be 40” from the floor to the bottom of the windows.
We've had an issue on a couple of our blinds with the bottom of the window being too high to use a field pod. 40 inches is higher than I would go. 36 inches is a good universal height. Hope this helps
Nicer than my office at work!! Very cool.
Thanks for watching...
Your gun rests are facing backwards. If you sit your rifle in the rest the way that you have them, they will not be supported correctly from tilting.
The field pods we're using are fully adjustable in all directions. After playing around with them for the past 2 years this direction seems to be the best fit for us. The gun or bow is always well balanced after dialing it in. We hunt with crossbows, rifles, and muzzleloaders and each one requires a little different adjustment. If you look closely the rear rest has a taller post which is crucial when hunting out of a raised blind. This allows us to move the back of the bow or gun higher up which is especially important when kids are shooting from a standing position. You'll also see there is an adjustment on the rails in the rear to pull the length back for longer guns. As you stated, if you make it longer you may also need to move the entire rail system forward to balance the gun correctly. Great comment. Thanks for watching
What kind of clover
Outsidepride.com (clover king deer food plot seed) The deer, turkey's and Grouse love it and it will grow well in sand and gravel. If you've actually got quality soil I'm sure it will be great too.
Go Blue!!!! What state is this?
Northern Michigan
12x8, for 2 people, do y'all live in there lol
Maybe I missed it but you're painting the inside black, right?
No, just leaving it the natural wood color. With no windows in the sides or back it's blacked out just fine as is. We've tested it from many locations in the food plot. Thanks for watching and thanks for the question...
@@ToddsProjectsandOutdoorJournal Thanks for posting the video.
No heater?
Oh, we have a Buddy heater...
@@ToddsProjectsandOutdoorJournal nice!
Keep in mind.....those boards will shrink when they dry. So there will be gaps in between them.
Yep, shouldn't be a problem. We've decided to wait and see what it looks like when it all shrinks up. It's dark behind it so it will likely look fine. We're prepared to run batten strips if needed. Thanks for the comment...
@@ToddsProjectsandOutdoorJournal im sure it will look AMAZING! I watched the entire series of videos of your build. You guys did a great job!!
Thanks
Porcupines are a problem ? I would pay for guills if you kill some and take the time to pull them out . If we are close enough you could skin them and freeze the hides then ship them next day delivery . I’ll pay you for them and pull the quills myself .
Sorry, too much effort for a little $. If you want to come to Northern Michigan and hunt them down and kill them for me you can have them. Thanks for watching...
