very nice! I always wanted to build something like what's in the movie "ghost and the darkness", one day I'll have to...

Always surprises me what guys find "comfortable"?

Maybe it's because I'm in a stand all day more times, and bowhunting whitetails.

I want a ladderstand, with a large platform that extends under the seating, something like 18"x30" give/take. A flip up seat, arm rests, shooting rail.

But i figure most guys hunting out of stands, hunt in the am for a couple hours, then the evening and don't require what I do...

I come across alot of stands that are "close calls" and I think, that's almost perfect, but totally won't work...for instance no flip up seat, I wanna stand close to the tree...partially for camo...not 2-3feet away from the tree. stuff like that...
