Nice!! What’s the specs on the materials being used??
 
The main frame is 1/2” square steel tube 16gage sidewall. The post is 1.250” aluminum.
 
Nice! Any flex with such thin tubing?? May have to weld one of these up

Nice, probably super strong. You could probably get it to 2 lbs or less if you made it only as strong as commercial platforms.
 
No I haven’t seen any real flex but I haven’t stood on it yet because I have to change a few things still and weld up solid still.
