16 foot Custom Boat Blind
« on: August 20, 2014, 09:05:11 PM »
The last couple weeks I have been working on this project. The frame is made out of 3/4 aluminum conduit and bimini hardware. Big thank you to Brad Harshman for the info on the Easy Gardener sun screen fabric which I used as the base for the camo. Military camo netting came from craigslist for a heck go a good deal. Very happy with how it turned out.

P.S. Big thank you to whoever invented zip-ties...

Looks cool.
Now all you need is some natural veg added to it once you get to your spot "X"

I might recomend velcro strips...?

Also, heads up, that camo netting sucks when it gets wet... seriously weighs a ton, just letting you know in advance, from my own exp.

nope... just saying that you should try to keep it dry, or make it so you can drive boat with the camo up
