Steppladder Platform Prototype

What’s the latest? Anybody still using this plywood platform? How’d it hold up?

Still using the original “slide in” that I made in 2018. Still the same piece of plywood. Still rock solid.

Mine is still in great shape sitting in my garage after one season of use and one season on backup duty.

I put the hours on mine for sure!
Averaging about 30 sits a year on it. I’m gonna put it in the backyard as my practice stand now

I made 4 of them for presets for my wife. They work great as long as you use the correct plywood thickness, cut them to the correct size and shape, and utilize the grain properly. No issues at all for me.

That was a fun little spurt of creativity for everyone. It’s hard for me to believe people are spending hundreds of dollars on a “perch”. I do love my piece of scrap plywood.

Woof...they getcha with the 12 dollar shipping tho. Thats 40% of the price for 6 steps. I guess its heavy and bulky but dang.

 

[PEEJAY]

Or 9 bucks shipping for 1 step lol. I guess thats still a super cheap platform though

You’ll enjoy it! Cheap and safe!

Are people using hardwood plywood or pine? Pine is way cheaper but I like the strength of the oak.

They really are hard to beat for the price. If a fella were looking to save a buck, I think this is really the climbing method to use. $40-60 of these will get you up a tree.
