hey all, I'm setting up a TDB-like blind on my BBII and and in the process of setting the conduit frame into its final position. After that comes canvas at which point I'm locked into that configuration...so I want to get it right now.
Currently it's set such that the long opening the length of the cockpit is 27" wide and the height from the floor boards is about 38". after sitting in the cockpit on a milk crate (shooting platform of choice) I'm thinking of lowering the side as the frame was hampering a level gun mount. At this height, a gunner would need to crouch down a bit to get behind the blind, but I'm thinking that while it might feel short in the garage, it will be roughly 6-12" inches higher in the field when it's covered with grass.
All of that said, this is my first build of a blind like this so wanted to see if there were additional thoughts or recommendations before I lock it all down.
thanks
