I also want this thread to go back toblinds and leave thepolitical crap outside. Come on guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I hunt at a friends place and he made of this tree stand that is very functional and fairly cheap. He made about a dozen and we spread them throughout his farm. It can be made into a tree stand blind if he wants to, but they work very well.
Beautiful, strong stand, very safe. I have designed some very low cost tree stands for hunting (< $10 each):

PS. If you have been around a while this is nothing new to you. For new folks, you may get some ideas that you like. Mine is a complete setup of the stand and the steps to get into the stand along with a Gorilla Seat, which you either leave in the stand or take out every time.
