My brother and I built some bear boxes out of angle iron... we wrapped them in camo duct tape for looks... cheaper than buying and im sure just as strong...

Looks good.  Do you have a way to secure it to the tree to keep the camera from being stolen?
Bring a GPS!  It's awkward to have to eat your buddies!

The box is hinged on the top, so when unlocked and opened there’s either small lag bolts or a locked cable which ever you use…
