    DIY Wild Edge/Tree Suit Hybrid

    I have used the 2 of them exclusively this season as my hunting platform. With roughly 10-12 sits on the folding and 20-25 on the fixed model (the discrepancy in sits on each was due to the fixed sets up faster and I just always seem to be running behind). I have used them both with; sticks...

    Singer Sewing Machine 251-1

    I don't know how much it be. My neighbor does Hotshot trucking, I can ask him? Maybe I can catch him with a run that way and hitch a ride for a deal? I'll let you know.

    Singer Sewing Machine 251-1

    That welder is what prevents me from learning how to sew. All free time gets spent with it building; platforms, sticks or whatever I can dream up?:cool:

    Singer Sewing Machine 251-1

    I picked this up a few months ago and as much as I would like to learn how to use it I don't have the time. I don't know how old this thing is but I was told it has never been used. I bought it from a friend of my dad that bought about 20 of them (brand new) from a store that was going out of...

    DIY Wild Edge/Tree Suit Hybrid

    It's the opposite of how you would a WE step. With the stand flat against the tree ( the "V" up and the support legs down) place the Whoopie sling around the tree. Lift the front of the stand while bringing the support legs up under it. As it goes up the rope gets tight and bites the stand in...

    DIY Wild Edge/Tree Suit Hybrid

    Finally got a little bit of extra time to get get started on the folding version (1st attempt). It tipped the scale at 2.5lbs and was pretty solid when side loaded. It's hard to tell from the picture but this is not a straight tree and it leveled up fine. Platform is 16"wide x 11"deep. The para...

    Buckingham Tree Spikes W/Mods

    Buckingham tree gaffs with Opsal aluminum cast pads. Opsal cast pads were just put on last year (painted them). Straps have been changed to quick buckles on the top and "G" hook on the bottom. DIY gaff covers. I believe I still have the original leather straps but not sure? With the Opsal pads...

    Does anyone have a good way to make throwbags for srt throw lines

    It works fine for me, have not noticed any bouncing issues with it. I did put a little camo tape on it

    Spurs/Gaffs & boots

    I just picked up a pair of the Gecko Ultra-lite Aluminums to replace my Buckingham's. Anyway after completing the mods, as shown in your pictures, my right one is now making a creaking sound when I apply or remove my weight tension while climbing? I have checked all the screws and they are...

    Bow holder what cha using?

    I tried one years ago and I thought it was pretty slick especially while shooting 3d tournaments. While shooting a tournament my friends wife asked me about so I offered to let her try it. I removed it from my bow and installed it on hers. The next target was a 30 yard shot that my arrow sailed...

    DIY Wild Edge/Tree Suit Hybrid

    Yes, it cams over but with a Whoopie Sling instaed of the knot (just my personal preferance). As for the four ponits of contact I do loose means of leveling but it makes it so solid to the tree and the side loading is rock solid. I was actually swinging off my teather and letting my full force...

    DIY Wild Edge/Tree Suit Hybrid

    I actually do have an idea to make one very similar that will fold flat as well. Just wanted to get one slapped together and on a tree so I went with this one first.

    DIY Wild Edge/Tree Suit Hybrid

    Finally had some free time this weekend from my crazy work schedule to fab up this prototype I have been rolling around in my head. It was Rock solid once it locked down with a Whoopie Sling (used bright green only for pictures). Even when side loaded on this small diameter tree, it literally...

    Lacrosse Alphaburly 800g

    That's the cold wether boots I use and love them, very comfortable. I wear 13's so they are bulky but no issues with climbing on sticks with aiders or spikes. Only used with bolts as a ROS, have not tried in a platform yet. If I have a long walk I carry an extra pair of and a Ziploc bag in case...

    What's your favorite saddle hunting firearm for whitetails?

    TC Encore, 16" barrel when I want really small but I have; 18", 20", 24", 26" and 28" length barrels to choose from. Just depends on what I feel like that day. The sky is the limit on caliber of choice. With a 24" barrrel it's still shorter than a stnd bolt gun.
