Here is a pic of Flinginairos stick I had saved for future build references. I have more but cant locate them currently.
Thank you. Do you no what he is using for a stand off bracket?Here is a pic of Flinginairos stick I had saved for future build references. I have more but cant locate them currently.

Im pretty sure they are lone wolf climbing stick standoffs. Thats what I used on mine.
Seems pics on the site are broken right now. I have to look into it over the weekend.
They are working on Tapatalk for me. I just saved them again. Here you go!
Thank you sir! They look great! I also like yours as well! Are your steps 3/8" Or 1/2" thick and did you machine a slot on the back side to keep it locked in on the tubing since you only have one bolt through the step? How thick is the lone wolf standoff? It looks to me around 3/4" or so? Sorry for so many questions.They are working on Tapatalk for me. I just saved them again. Here you go!

Mine are based off of Garret Prahls/Bowhunter15s 1.5lb sticks. The steps are made from 6061 T6 1.5"x0.375"x10". There is a slot cut in the back to keep them from turning. The slot is about half the thickness. I do not have a cnc router table or an endmill so I used my tablesaw with a high tooth count blade to cut the dado slots. I also made a cheap crosscut sled for my tablesaw to make the dado cuts. The tread on the top of my steps were done the same way. I also machined top end caps<<<(6063 scrap I had laying around) and reinforced behind(inside the 1"tube) the steps with some leftover 6061 cut at 1.5"x7/8"x0.375".Bowhunter15 has plastic end caps on top for weight reduction. With the reinforcements mine still weight under 2lbs each.(1.75lbs each with amsteel straps). I need to just do a good write up on mine, but its basically Bowhunter15s and I used a tablesaw instead of a cnc router. Maybe I'll name them, "My Not So Lightweight Reinforced Climbing Sticks"!!!

Thanks brother! If the Army didnt teach me anything else, they taught me to improvise. I believe the lonewolf standoffs are 1/2" thick.
Thanks again! I will have to see what I come up with. I might have to buy the standoffs because I don't have a plasma table and they would be a pain in the butt cutting out with a band saw. I got some ideas that I might try and if they work I will post up a build thread.
I think the problem has resolved itself. The best kind of problems!
I dont think so. I dont have any LW sticks or I would have tried to make a step to fit.
