Yeah...sorry...didn't make clear....I start the daisy in the center ....make the 30 foot into 15 to start and makes it more better to work with
The stuffing has compressed a little and I could stand to stuff it a little more but other than that it does everything I ask of it and more. I wouldn't change anythingHow is the soft platform holding up after a few months of use?
If you made one from scratch, would you do anything differently now?
Weldabeast, you may want to go with a more dense foam material for you stuffing. Something like those cheap Swim noodles. The foam is very dense, but light and could be cut to length and stuffed. Just a thought.The stuffing has compressed a little and I could stand to stuff it a little more but other than that it does everything I ask of it and more. I wouldn't change anything
1 day I make a different soft platform style that will use noodles.... Not spaghetti noodles @Red BeardWeldabeast, you may want to go with a more dense foam material for you stuffing.

I've been using em. Not in love but I don't have anything better.1 day I make a different soft platform style that will use noodles.... Not spaghetti noodles @Red Beard
Diy platform idea
I don't have a sewing machine so I'm throwing this idea out there for anybody who wants to take it on.....what if you sew a very heavy duty fabric into the shape of a platform that would be a big wedge shape. Image a doorstop wedge with the point facing up the tree and the flat part against the...saddlehunter.com
@ThereWillBeSpuds are u still using ur noodles? Or abandon that silly idea?
Man! Its good to finally see this system in action after following the progress of the build! Makes perfect sense now. Nice method brother!Ok y'all.....I have no editing or fancy stuff...just birds, neighborhood kids playing, car horns, AC units, and me climbing to 20ft, setup, tear down, descend.....video sucks but u guys get the idea....if I wasn't so anal retentive about organization and putting things away would speed things up a bunch.... I thought about just going flat out and seeing how fast I could do it but that's not very realistic.... So I take my time like I always do. Shots taken at the 3-4 o'clock position since that seems to be the harder 1 for rightys. Video sucks....sorry fellas
Loved seeing the stirrups in action man. You need to learn how to sew with ur sewing machine so you can make a few more NOT by hand with the speedy stitcher
If u wanna hunt with me I make it a point to see that happen.Gotta say i never saw this thread back when it started. First time i saw this system was when flcanopystalker invited me to the saddle hang out. I‘m pretty set on my technique, not stubborn, just happy with one sticking. Much like Weldabeast and his system! But he definitely has it down to the minimum, and it is quiet beyond belief. I was impressed to say the least, nice job, buddy! Maybe you can drag me out to the swamp this season and I’ll see it in action
