I have one almost identical to this at our place. One thing I’m going to add is a short piece of towing strap anchored to the concrete directly below the skinner. Use a pair of vise grips to attach hide to strap while lifting carcass leaving the hide on the ground. You’ll have to readjust it a few times during the process. And a $150 winch from HF will make it even easier. https://www.harborfreight.com/1500-lb-capacity-120-volt-ac-electric-winch-96127.html

I would build that as tall as possible. By the time you add a gambrel, scale, Hook etc the head won’t be as high as you hope. It sure is nice to be able to raise all parts of a hanging deer to your own comfortable working height while standing. You must of heard about all those monster spikes(I mean cull bucks) I'm gonna kill.
GO NOLES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2nd being able to hang at least 2 and closing in 3 sides.
We have one decent hanging setup in my dad’s tractor shed and one make-do hanging setup. We’ve had to use the crappy setup too often.
A skinning shed is a great part of deer hunting. Spent a lot of quality time with my dad and my bro in ours over the years.

If you have a creek close by look up a water ram pump. It’s amazing at the water they can pump. If you have access to a good spring close by you could easily run a camper or the skinning shed off of one.

A rain catch off the back of the tin run down into a 275 gallon tote hooked to a small pump for water...….It'd also be pretty simple to go ahead and build a really solid permanent table on the back between your posts. Paint it white to keep light out to cut down on algae growth in warm weather.

If pouring concrete is not possible, use the 18x18 blocks used under ac units
