DIY 4 step aider for Wild Edge steps

[dbinz]

Hey fellas,
I've been tinkering and fine tuning lengths on this beauty over the last week, and figured I'd share to help save anyone trying this to save time.
18ft of 1" tubular webbing
3 ft of camo gaffers tape
1 hook stolen from a ratchet straps.
4 ft of 550 Paracord
Started at the top running a frost knot with the hook tied in. Then spaced my first knot 14" from the hook to the knot. Then all the other knots are 14" apart. The stepping loops is roughly 6" wide and weighted with gaffers tape. I may try Paracord at some point depending on how well the tape hold up. Lastly I have about 4 ft of Paracord ran from the hook to fasten to myself somewhere to avoid crouching standing on the WE step. This is a combination of multiple YouTube vids so by no means is this all my idea.
It's a way to climb 6-7 ft by only spending $20 or so.

I did one of these my self and way over spaced my knots. I tied mine using the fact that my cut heliums are 22 inch steps. So when i tried it and you figure in the drape of the step with weight applied i couldnt make the step.... so i retied at 18 inches with an 8 inch step width and still am uncomfortable. I think im going to retie it again tomorrow with 14 inch steps with 6 inch width and who cares if its more the 4 steps... at least ill be able to make the step.

After the retie. I am super happy woth it. Used the wider flat hook more comminly found on car hauling straps. It fit right on the crossbar of the wild edge step snug with no chance of sliding like with the standard hook. Even if the steo ends up slide to an angle it stayed solid
