Stand seat platform attachment issues

So I’m trying to use the seat from one on those really cheap hang on stands as a platform and I’m not sure what type of rope or strap setup to go with. I like attaching the strap to the platform so that the cam of the seat tightens the strap, but I don’t trust tying a knot in Amsteel, and don’t like ratchet straps? Anyone figured out the best way to do this?
 
Here’s my setup...lone wolf stick strap. I am adding a piece of webbing and a carabiner today make it a quick release set up. Getting the strap through the buckle in these in painful...and wasn’t designed for easy insertion anyways.

Currently it is in the tree I predominantly hunt out of in my property. Carabiner will allow me to take it down at the end of the hunt and move to a new tree for the next hunt. Loops on ends of this strap are sewn. Figured it was webbing and carabiner or rip the stitching out of a loop to add a hook and re-sew.

I’m using an Amsteel daisy chain with a carabiner on one side.

is there a post on how to use a lone wolf climbing seat as a platform and I am missing it? I see a lot on how people are climbing with the seat. I am assuming there is a mod that people are doing to the seat unless they are just using it as is.
