Looks like tree stand cable material bolted on the lower step
i wrap the bottom of my webbing in paracord and it stays openI’m in the minority here, but I think the cable might end up being better than webbing for an aider. Loop will always stay open, loop will always be off the tree, won’t be affected by wind, easier to get the same height every stick if diy, and it looks like if the bolt holding it wasn’t extremely tight they would just fold up to pack. I weigh like 270 and don’t think they would cut into my foot as bad as everyone else says, but I also don’t hunt in crocs like everyone else on here.......
i have a couple cables with the loops on them from an old hang on laying around. I think I’m going to try and do this soon.Interesting idea. Would love to see if someone DIYs one and what their thoughts are. I can see pros/cons to either aider method.
Personally hard to beat tubular webbing as it literally requires no special tools just a sharp cutting implement (scissors work) and ability to tie a knot.
Steel cable, even coated steel cable looses the noise battle to tubular webbing. We use small cable like that at work for lock out tag out and it’s not nearly as storable/packable/ easy to make do what u want as webbing.. I don’t really see an advantage.

The only advantage that I can see is that with the LWCG sticks you need something skinny to stay out of the way of the rubber grommets when you stack them together. Webbing would be difficult to do this with its basically impossible to keep the straps wrapped around the sticks and use the grommets a webbing aider might be the same way.

Not seeing the benefit over 3/16 amsteel.
