Theives Hit Me Again
 
Found out today they got me again. Homemade stand made out of three aluminum security light arms and about 15 home made angle iron and black rope steps.

You can't mistake these rope steps. They are about 5x5 angle iron with 3/4 inch piece of pipe on one end to pass the rope through. Black polypropalene rope.

Never seen any steps close to those and I've never seen any where you can buy pure black poly 5/8 rope. I had to special order it.

I'll give $100 to any one who knows any one using equipment like I've describe. Any where it's hanging, getting used, laying in a garage.

$100 bucks

Bedford Indiana, thanks just the same.

I doubt they'll use it to close to where they stole it so ya never know.

If you see it though there won't be any doubt at all. That black poly rope isn't just run of the mill from walmart and I've never seen plans or any other stands made with those aluminum pipes from security lights.

Went out looking for this today since the snow has melted. I noticed they couldn't get the chain so I figured they might just get tire of carrying something they couldn't use with out spending some money on it.

Looky what I found.

Glad you got it back. Maybe someone who just wanted to stop you from hunting that particular area.

These are really pretty good stands if you don't have to carry them everywhere. They are cheap, big and solid if you put it up right.

Those are the aluminum arms off the security lights REMC puts up. When they replace a light it always comes with an arm and they don't have any use for the old ones.

If you look at the picture of that one on the ice you can see the way to use them. It took a while looking at those arms and just knowing they would make some kind of good stand to get that idea, LOL. They don't turn and make a 90 degree angle.

If you chain it to the tree and then let the platform down the "V" notch the angles make push the back out and cam it tight agains the tree.

All you've got invested is chain for the tree connection plywood for platform and seat and chain or cable to hook the platform to the seat/post part. That can be made adjustable for angled trees.

Had the same problem here in Ohio. Had to go to using a climber. I even have IDIOTS that don't have hunting permission ( because i don't give any ) putting Posted signs on MY land, so no one else will try to hunt it!
