Hard to tell with their stupid, dramatic lighting, but it looks like the stand has built-in hookup points to facilitate using the platform's csm strap to cinch down the sticks.View attachment 19989
Why would you want them to recreate a platform that is already created? I only bought it because it was larger. As soon as the predator was created there was a decent amount of interest in a predator xl. LWCG just remade their old cast platform with water jetted aluminum, which cut weight. I think they hit the market and size right on the head. Now we have options for everything. ROS, minimalist platforms (Perch, Pred), and now a larger option, Ambush. I can't wait to get mine.

Like bow string wax. On the adjustment bolt.

Not a surprise to me. My sticks were the same way. Their response was basically " it's a feature, not a bug." Supposedly it gives it texture and breaks their outline up.....you can see the water jet marks on the upright of the post..
ThanksJust to clarify, wax the bolt that connects the platform to the post, not the leveling bolt.

Is what it is. Do I like it? Not really. Does it matter? Probably not. If there was a cheaper alternative I'd go for it.
Theoretically it's not that bad. I can hunt any tree in the woods with say a ten cranford steps, a set of heliums, a hand drill and set of bolts etc (all about a hundred bucks), a commercial saddle is about 200, or a fleece saddle DIY and cheap rch for say 50 bucks. ROS for say 60-80 bucks. 20 bucks in rope and 15 bucks in carabiners. Starting from zero with no diy i guess 400 or so? Or 300 with a ring of bolts. Not cheap, but not really worse than other mobile options, and cheaper than a crapton of preset stands. The problem is knowing how to spend that starting from zero, and in buying 500 different climbing methods, 6 platforms, and 65 different types of rope like some rope-totin' Charlie Bronson wannabe.
I was guessing they would have sold out within an hour. Considering how many want the assassin.
