See post #1 in the thread for dimensions.Dang.... That little thing is heavy. Looks like 1x1 post unless you got giant hands.... So angle looks 2x2x3/8....maybe thicker... Hard to tell in pic
$80What’s the cost of your builder there feller?
agreed... I think i'm going to do a little more milling on the angle and see if I can get it around 2.5 lbs.I think most of the extra weight is in the aluminum angle.
It's only heavy on Saddlehunter. I agree with you but I was only commenting in case someone was going to build one. I think that 1/4" angle could hold an elephant but the rest of the platform could not. Maybe sourcing a thinner aluminum angle would optimize the weight better for SH. Unless the weight went to 1.0 lbs many people here would not impressed. I will continue to use my Primal platform but maybe work on a lighter one if I'm looking for a DIY project just for the experience.I mean when did 3 pounds become heavy? So you shave off a pound will you really feel it? I would rather carry an extra pound or half pound and it be over built. Probably just me though.
