I've always seen the noose but I never thought about it that way. I just thought he made it in case he wanted to kill himself. If he was already taken over though, couldn't the thing just mutate into something and ooze out a small window or something?

The Thing is in the shack because it has a lair underneath (which McReady later finds) where it has been collecting the parts it’s been taking and is building a ship.

Pretty sure it dug the pit while being left ignored in the shack. Unobserved, it could mutate out any feature that would be effective at excavation or escape to go gather parts.
