So, I’m a new guy. I’ve gotten most of my gear on order but not a platform. I wanted to see if I could DIY it up from an old, cheap lock-on seat. I found a thread on here where a guy had done so with an old Ameristep. I moved the seat on the post and cut it down, but I can’t for the life of me figure out how to rig the Amsteel to get it lock onto the tree. Any suggestions or am I just never going to get it to work with what I’ve got? I’ve still got the ratchet strap, but it’s a cheap and I’d rather use this 1/4 Amsteel if possible. I may need a better cleat and add a second one higher up the post Suggestions?
