re: Building Deer Stands with EZ Brackets

Update from this past weekend...
The turnaround time on the windows we purchased was about 3 weeks so it put our project on hold for a bit.
We got up two of the large walls and used some 2x2s for the framing to keep the weight down. We haven’t mounted the windows yet but it’s amazing how much viewing area there is with a 48” section. This stand is gonna be very nice.
EDIT: forgot to mention a couple things we’ve been debating.
1. What would be the best way to paint this thing? Rollers? Paint gun? Brushes?
2. I think my door design will be very simple and won’t go all the way to the roof since the roof will be at an angle. I’m thinking a simple 2x4 frame with a couple door hinges and a latch on the inside and outside would work best but I’m open to suggestions.

Roll it one solid color and get some spray paint that you can use to make random marks that will match the color of the foliage during hunting season

Just roll it since you aren’t wanting a really smooth finish, also reccomended priming first to ensure good bonding since it’s exterior
