So last night I couldn’t take the waiting any longer. I went downstairs in my dungeon and used an old gorilla climbing stick, my seat from my twisted timber hanging stand and did this.

I’ll try and get out this weekend after I dig myself and my in-laws out of snow-maggedon.

Booyah! Pretty awesome when you can just go downstairs and end up with a descent platform. Nice. Let us know how it works for you. I'm about to pull the trigger on a Predator.
 
Should say...I was impatient for the predator to finally get here....Less than 2lbs...way less.
 
Weighed it...4 lbs 13 ounces.

Wow that's not bad. Got a drill press? Could prolly get it to 3.5 if you wanted to. And switch out the strap for amsteel. But good job I'd use it how it is. 4lbs is nothing

I do not have a drill press...just a hand drill. It was fun drilling the holes for the project.
 
Could you shorten the square tube a little bit? It would pack much easier and weigh less.

If I had not bought the predator then yes I would. However I'm just waiting now and don't want to have to dismantle eveything.
