Awesome!  Nice job on the box.  You might want to consider gray/black/green vs. browns.  Just a thought.  I've found gray/black blends well on doug fir trees.  Go big on tree diameter to reduce theft by cutting the tree down.  Since you made the box yourself, another design tip, add some loops for running a Master Python cable lock around the whole works.  The come in 3/8" diameter and are extra security.  And wear latex or nitrile gloves when handling it.  And lastly - GOOD LUCK!  Looking forward to your pics!

Here's what I mean about the loops for the cable lock:

thanks for the advise bow for elk, I have my python cable (it just came in the mail today) my cam has a hole all the way thru it for the cable so I drilled holes in the side of my box to accommodate the cable, I like the colors you are talking about but these are the colors I have and I am getting to impatient, but I may re paint it later on after I get it out for a while, thanks again for the input,

By the way, I love the bolt/nut pass-through latch...I might hit you up for a custom box one of these days.

I am curious on how the Primos camera will work.  They have gotten good reviews.  Can't wait to see some.
