Just finished up my diy klemz platform for saddle hunting. I built it for under $100 for all the parts. Below are pictures of the finished product. It seems to be pretty solid once cam locked on tree with minimal flex out on the ends. It takes side pressure good without kick out.
Paracord to outer edge to give good foot feel and traction.
Sponge Camo painted
Old style lonewolf seat(drill and tapped for adjustment bolt)
Lonewolf cam strap with bunge cord for storing
EWO 12” 1.25 square tube
EWO platform tree cleat
Only issues is that it won’t lay completely flat. My fault front holes I drilled on seat are not even. So I had to use original holes. I searching for flatter spacers/washers for platform to post mount. Currently using lonewolf/XOP spacers/washer which are beveled. They work but aren’t quite right IMHO.
Have them attached to 5 beast sticks with titan straps. Using a old lonewolf stand pack strap for carrying into the woods.
Total weight with 5 sticks 13.01lbs
