Too Low - 25ft is comfortable

The most comfortable seats I’ve found are the Millennium chairs. I’m looking at getting three of the t100 10’ mobile tripods. They are 36 lbs and movable. Would be great for my logged area (200 acres)
And
The Millennium tree seats. They are 4lbs and you attach to the base of the tree. Easily movable to play the wind. Easy hunts for where you spot big bucks

exactly. i wanna make box stands myself but make them more friendly to hunters. and sell them for a reasonable price. and i also wanna make them friendly to hunters who have kids (i.e. an anechoic material lining the stand) or an adjustable window for the shooter or an adjustable elbow rest

No shelves - have to set all of my stuff on the floor and knock them over with my boots
Too small - need enough room for me to be able to fully swivel without hitting hunting bag
Non sealing windows and doors
Windows too high or low for shooting distances from that blind

Shelves in top corners only and hooks in corners to hang gear. Leave the window areas open for free movement.
My next build will have a dedicated box on the outside to house a buddy heater with full ventilation. Cuts down on bumping it or burning material when someone falls asleep. I'm surprised more people don't get seriously hurt/killed by buddy heaters in blinds.

Windows too high for being elevated.

Mine was only $2550 baw!
If you can’t buy yourself nice things every now and then, what’s the point?

I need to take the jokers advice - "if you're good at something, don't do it for free" and start building and selling shite like this.

Not anchored/ sturdy enough where if you move it doesn’t rock or creak.
Also not soundproofed properly. I line every inch of my box stands interior with carpet

5’x5’ is perfect.
