Installing new windows in the deer Hunting Blind.

- Today the elevated hunting blind is getting new windows. The last windows I made, were plexiglass and ended up breaking in high wind. These windows will help keep the deer hunting blind warmer and dry.

We live in southeastern Illinois on a 41 acres homestead. We just finished building our log cabin overlooking our pond. We are trying to grow our own food and raise livestock. Follow us on our journey living the rural life and developing our property and becoming more self sufficient.
Great job..cutting the flange off was a great idea...it's not the space shuttle. Keep it simple great job.
If you have a resale store or Salvation store go look for chairs. we picked up 3 good medical office chairs for $5.00 each. you can swivel and move around on the carpet without being heard. Nice job
I used regular glass. Used 2x4 s cut 3/8 groove in each one. Put one above and one below . Placed the glass in the groove when placing the last 2x4 in. Giving room on either end for them to slide they work great ! Only issue is....sometimes if you get freezing rain the rain will enter the groove and freeze the glass up. Have to plan around that issue....which seldom happens.
That white will not bother the deer. The thing is they get used to it if it is there all the time.
Wow Nice Hunting blind ,
Happy holiday's to you and your family, stay safe and enjoy.
Them buddy heaters are great
Looks great
Nice install, good job!!! Thanks...Peace!!!

Lightly scuff the plastic , get some plastic spray paint in a darker green. For the crack in the glass , you can use packing tape on either side of it to minimize further splitting or you can purchase some glass repair liquid. That would seal the crack up and essentially fix the crack. Blind looks great ! I really enjoy your channel ...
Hi...... Evan nice to see you, thank you for sharing your video homestead chicken farmer garden 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 👕🐔🐓🐥🐕🐖🐈🌱🐐🎥👍👍👍
That is a first class hunting house. Always enjoy your videos.
😲 Now that is a more modern blind...comfort. 😊👏👏👍☝️
I was able to salvage old school bus windows for my blind. Works great!
When I was a kid in Central New York State...After the corn harvest, herds of 150-200 deer would come to gleen the dropped corn. At dusk, my Dad would load us in the back of the pickup to go down the road to watch them move through.
Awesome blind, good luck to you all this season!
Windows look very nice Evan! Have a wonderful Thanksgiving ! God-bless you and your family!
Great job installing the new windows. Glad to see the nice old buck in your field looking for the doe’s! Have a great hunting season, & relax. Be safe, stay healthy, and, God Bless everyone.
Evan once the deer get used to the blind it won't matter if it is bright orange it will just be a part of the landscape to them. you done a nice job with the windows, good luck getting your deer. Happy holidays to you and Rebecca.
Man i hope y'all get him he a big boy like video 👍
That looks really nice, Evan. Nooooo, Evan, we want videos,. What about Christmas preparation videos? You are one of my main source of entertainment. I know it's weird that a female artist loves this stuff, but I find it quite soothing. Show us hunting vids. The withdrawal will be horrible. LOL. Happy Thanksgiving and Merry Christmas. See you in the New Year,
Currently in a video drought here in September 2021, as Evan works a long string of all-niters. Am blessed to have found Field Rows channel covering a real fine family farm in northwest Florida, but looking forward to more CVA videos soon! ua-cam.com/video/9dkfkJbkw68/v-deo.html
You are so smart. Good luck with the hunt
Love all your videos Evan. You're so knowledgeable and a great teacher. Grateful for you and your videos. Thanks for giving of your time and knowledge. I appreciate all you do and hope you had a great Thanksgiving 👍❣️
Happy Thanksgiving.
I have enjoyed you videos over the years . Thanks for sharing all the little things you've done to clean up and modernize the place .
he is very nice
He will be back...... Happy Holidays stay safe and healthy...Hugs from Minnesota
Great job on the camo siding, all your projects look great.
Thanks for sharing with us Evan and Rebecca. Great job on the windows in the hunting blind. Good luck harvesting the big buck on the game camera. Happy Thanksgiving to you both and your families.. Fred 👍👍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Sweet set up now that you have window's you can crank up the heat,sit back and relax when the rain moves in. I'm going to be working on one built off your design this spring. Thanks for the window tip on the bottom flange
Happy Hunting wish you the best.
Love the stand, that buck is a monster ! Goo luck !
Good video!!
Thanks for sharing.
If you wanted to use your field as a food plot, you could always disc up a few strips after your last hay cutting. Then come back in and plant crimson clover or soybean. Deer REALLY LOVE okra, but it is expensive to use just for deer. Lol. Good luck with the hunt and don't worry about the deer seeing the windows. Itll be part of the background in a week or so.
Windows looks good.
Awesome blind
Love too see it
Awesome video
Nice looking deer stand , sure beats sitting on a log like I do in PA .Wishing you guys a great holiday season .
Hubby's hunting is going the same way! 10 pts on trail cams at 2am, little deer showing up in the scope. Enjoy the season! Happy Thanksgiving!
Awesome video Evan. Have a great Thanksgiving
I guess one can purchase cameo paint in the same shop which sells tartan paint?
Thx
Happy thanksgiving too you and Rebecca ethan and i hope your hunting session goes well, we hace have had too stop hunting here for a month due too us being put back into lock down for a month that is lifted next Wednesday
What a beautiful buck! Truly Thanksgiving for him, lol!
Happy Thanksgiving man and hope you get your deer soon!!!
Didn’t do to bad cutting that nail fin but next time just score it bend it and it will just snap off on your score. I bead, trim welds and sometimes remove nail fins and J covers for a living
Happy Thanksgiving Rebecca n Evan
Great video. Have a safe, happy and healthy Thanksgiving. Rachel safe at work!😊
Happy Thanksgiving to y'all
Happy Thanksgiving to you.
Happy Thanksgiving to you
Have a good Thanksgiving!
Happy Thanksgiving!!!
Great blind and upgrade ! Happy Thanksgiving!
Throw either some silicone caulk or crazy glue to keep weather out of the crack. I think you can get camo sunscreen to cover the glass also. Works great.
Happy Thanksgiving!
I work for a Window company we make the same kind of Windows you should of got driftwood slider but I love the hunting blind thro I be going hunting tomorrow morning after work hope y'all get a deer thro happy Thanksgiving y'all
have a similar heater, it works really well in a smaller area.
Us some super thin super glue over the crack in the glass to fill it in. One drop should do it. We have done that to our old single pane windows to make them survive the winter before with no issues AND no rattle.
JudithB Happy Thanksgiving !!! My neighbor got an 8pt on my land a couple of weeks ago. He usually gives me some of any kill on my land. He said he wants to fill my freezer and his this year, so I will be canning a lot more venison!!
For the cracked window use clear fingurenail polish. It will help stop it from busting out .
Good luck Happy Thanksgiving
Nice hunting blind
Good luck with the hunting. That nice buck knows when it's safe to come out . 😁😆😅🤣 Hope you & your family have a Happy Thanksgiving.
Never saw your blind before
You should film the hunt
You can still plant the fruit trees off the Edges of the field
That's how it always goes for me to
I thought the bucket was going to be the toilet! 😂
This is my first blind of any kind ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxLQGtOO9dXIsNktEeycGoIT6jtJJNTScA so nothing to compare it to. After I receive it, I set it up and left it outside at home for a couple of months to let it start smelling more like outside than human. So far I've been very happy with it. Very roomy - I hunt alone but could easily fit another person comfortably. Put one bolt through the shoot-through mesh, and works as advertised. I've ordered another one, so this noob is totally satisfied. One caveat - the included stakes are pretty useless; you'll want to order something more substantial. I haven't had it long enough to rate durability, but zero issues so far.
Wow we used to hunt deer ...not set in a condo...lol
You need to put glass window on and mr. heat with 20lb propane tank you never get cold no matter what the temp outside is.
They have spray paint made for plastic . Do your own camo.
Sorry you didn't get a deer yet but the windows will make the wait at least more comfortable. I am glad you didn't take the young ones....they need to grow a bit longer. Have a Happy Thanksgiving and a Blessed Christmas.
Great job next time leave a little more space to get some spray foam in between the window and wood for better R value
I was just sitting out in tripods and open stands all weekend. I think we need to put up a couple enclosed stands.
Hard end нам мы тут выживаем best 👍
It should be sightseeing deer cabin
Lol what??
Good Lord, man, did you ever hunt office a piece of plywood stretched between trees? It is a nice blind. Good luck.
You really need to put some solar xmas tree lights on that stand. After the season.
You need a recliner 🦃
Looks like you have exclusive rights to use that stand all for yourself this season!! I assume there aren't any others to hunt from it since I didn't see anyone else helping you with the window install!!! :-) Great lookin' blind! Good luck!!!
I would install windows, a wood stove, a hot plate , a coffee maker, a phone charger, a cot, down blankets, blinds, insulation,
I don't think you need to worry about the window color. The deer in the area will accustom themselves to it as it is.
Next you will install the tv as well.
Windows worked real well look great. I need to replace the windows in one of our shooting houses. Where did you buy yours? Thanks for sharing👍🏻👍🏻
Can you do another video of your hunting blind and progress of your area and chestnut 🌰 trees?
Try a drop of super glue on the cracked glass to fix it. Nice idea with the windows.
I wonder if plastic paint will work long term on the window casing too.
Hope you had your rifle handy, you know how it goes, when you least expect it...expect it.
Love the blind Evan. Looks to be alot better shape this year. Hoping to see some hunting videos! Do you archery hunt?
You should try to figure a way to seal that window crack. Duct tape, silicone, nail polish etc.
@R Brown you could do that. But if you broke it yourself its not the stores fault.
I didn't archery hunt this year. Too busy with everything else.
@@jkdubs2 Also the bottom flange is cut off.
@@dwightl5863 you are correct. I forgot about that part.
@@CountryViewAcres no worries I get that. Got a nice 9 point myself this year with a bow b
put clear nail polish over the crack and Happy Thanksgiving!!
Are you planning to put drop cloths on the sides and back so you won’t be skylined?
Sorry if I sounded a bit confrontational,I love all kinds of meat,never tasted Deer meat but make all our sausages from store bought pork.probably doesn’t taste as good as yours.
I have those same windows in my blind. After I installed them, I discovered you can only remove one window, i have to be real careful how I use my crossbow.
If you used an adjustable office chair do you think you would still set the shooting bench height at 30 inches? You mentioned in one of the earlier videos you would shorten the height from 36". I think your issue is the chair.
Where was your side kick this week end, ? I bet she had to work. How much wind will that stand take ? The windows look really nice. You must be waiting for a big buck. I know nothing about deer hunting but they said a young deer is more tender. But I’m sure you know how to cook whatever you get. Anyway good luck. Happy hunting.
She was behind the camera filming. She trys to stay out of most videos.
@@CountryViewAcres Come on Rebecca,you did so good last week on camera . I was just smiling as you were talking to your chickens. I believe it was last year that you got yourself a deer. Go back out there and get another one. Don’t let Evan get them all lol
bet you wear hearing protection when firing inside that box. Also how high is the platform above the ground?
Awesome paint Job on your blind , did u do it ?
With the heat on did you get a nice nap?
👍 👍
