RE: Home made stands
I wouldn't bother. You can get cheap stands on sale for @$25 and get several. Put them up a couple of months ahead of time and you can be more able to deal with different wind directions.

RE: Home made stands
Here are two of my home built stands set next to each other for a nighttime pig hunting setup. This setup is only about 10 feet up and 18 yards off thepig pipebut hasproduced 7 hogs so far.
Frame is 1" square tubing, platform is expanded metal, seat is rope wound back and forth through two arms. These are very comfy stands, but the tree has to be straight. My homemade ladders stands are VERY stout, made out of 1 1/2" tubing and 15' tall, but I don't have a pic of them here. ![]() |
RE: Home made stands
Here's a link to the type of stand that I would like to have....
I'd like to build something like this for myself, but time being more important than the money, I'll prolly just buy a ladder stand. http://www.gametamers.com/TS32.html |

RE: Home made stands
I'm a builder buy trade and as much as i use wood at work with the price of on the increase you can buy a hang on stand for about as much as it would cost you to build. If you are giong to build one, make sure you use treated lumber and galvanised nails or srews, you woun't have to replace them as often but you will need to ckeck them as you would a brought one.
