    Gen 1 Treesuit

    Just acquired a Gen 1 Treesuit with all the ropes. Was thinking of making a whoopie sling with 1/4" Amsteel for a bridge and replacing the waist belt with another belt with quick release buckle. My question is does anyone know of any good belts that are weight rated? I'm going to hook my...

    Wild Edge Steps

    I have 12 steps with 6 foot and 8 foot ropes and the carrying bag. Used only a couple of years. A few of the 8 foot ropes were frayed so I spliced on the shorter ropes. I have to check a few more I left at my stand. I will include the small plastic splicing fid that Wild Edge sent me. I'm...

    Platform Advice

    Last year, I used 3 WE steps for a platform. Worked good but got a bit uncomfortable not being able to stand. And they would work loose. Looking at the Perch because it's on sale and I get Veteran discount. But I've read where it starts to work loose and move a bit. So I was looking at the...

    Wild Edge Customer Service

    Wild Edge Customer Service is above and beyond. I posted a couple weeks back about a rope that broke and upon inspection looked like someone cut it. Anyways, Andrew from Wild Edge said he would send me a couple ropes. I told him not to worry because it wasn’t the company’s fault, and how...

    Thread for sewing seatbelt webbing

    Making some more mods on my Anderson. My mom had a sewing machine so I want her to do some sewing. What type of thread should I use? It’s going to be my bridge so I want some heavy duty stuff? I’m curious what the manufacturers use

    Apologies to Wild Edge for Post Title

    I started a post regarding my wild edge rope breaking. I stated that it was either from a squirrel chewing or someone cut it. I never once thought or implied in the post that it was a manufacture defect. Was thinking about it last night and felt bad how I worded the title. Just didn’t want...

    Want to try climbing spurs

    Which should I buy? I’ve heard the aluminum ones are good to start with. Or maybe just go all out and get the carbons ones. What you think?

    Wild edge rope sabotaged

    I have a set stand that has been up all year. Second year using the steps. Climbing in this morning and hooked my Knaider into 3rd step (bout 10 ft up) and snap. Rope broke. Luckily I was grabbing next step and had linesman belt on. Not sure if a squirrel chewed through it or what. Always...

    Platform suggestion

    Ok, I’m using a Wild Edge platform and I noticed I primarily stay on the step right in front of me most of the time. So I’m thinking I would prefer a platform. I have a Mantis on order (ughhhhhhh, lol) and thought about the Predator. I’ve heard of some noise issues so not sure if I should...

    Tunteil carabiner

    I found some locking carabiners on Amazon 2 for $9.99. 25kn strength and lightweight. Just never heard of them. Made by Tunteil. Anyone heard of them? Would I be ok with these or should I stick with more popular brand like Black Diamond?

    Speedy stitcher thread

    I was going to sew my leftover strap on my Anderson to make a bridge for it like John Eberhart did. I was going to bring it to a local upholstery shop. I have a speedy stitcher but not sure if I trust myself lol. Is the polyester thread that's included with it strong enough? Thanks

    Bridge length

    I've read where many are using a fixed 24" bridge. I ordered a Mantis and it's 30". I was going to make a fixed amsteel but think I'm going to take my leftover strap from my Anderson and sew a bridge like John Eberhart did on his. This is for my son. I just don't know what length to do. Any...
