This is how my Beast Mini is set up. Harken 150 cam cleat from EWO ( comes with bolts and nylocks). Single step aider for me. I was looking for appropriate grommets for where the aider goes thru the stick when Boynebowhunter walked up with a couple of fresh turned bushings. I really like the aider opening at 90 degrees to the tree. This is wonderful with a single step aider, less so with a multi-srep

One of the bolts for the cam cleat will use existing mounting hole, you'll have to drill the second hole.

I just did. Had a spare beast stick and an extra 18” feather stick drilled from a cam cleat already. I had bought a EWO Ultimate One Stick in 18” and then bought a 12” feather stick when I realized I wanted it more compact.

I took a hacksaw and cut it to 12”, drilled holes for the steps/standoffs. I added a cam cleat, Amsteel rope, 1/4” cable clamp to keep the rope from moving, and sewn 3 step 15” aider from EWO. Also bought a pack-n-play pouch for the aider.
