Weigh one stick with everything you attach to tree. Rope... cam... amsteal..adiers..etc.

You could start with an Amsteel rope mod. That should help.

3lbs 12oz for cut Hawk Helium, attached platform, cam cleat, amsteel and aider.

Yeah if the amsteel cut my rope weight in half with a 4 stick setup that would save me a half lbs on total weight. My sticks with no rope is 2lbs 6oz. So maybe with the amsteel I'm guessing 2.9 per stick.

I cut down my lone wolf sticks to 24”. One stick weighed 1lb12oz. And I think that’s as with an amsteel daisy chain. I was using a 5 step aider with the wild edge steps. I could get about 20 feet with 4 steps and aider. I’d say the aider was at least 8oz but I haven’t weighed it yet.

I have some serrated aluminum bar grate I have been saving to build some steps, I like your stand-off idea!!! With that kind of gusseting I think 1/4" thick steps would be fine...……….. NICE!!!

You could add a little more material to the top step and have a platform as well

My hawk heliums are 2.25 lbs each after: cutting to a 23" step length (don't know overall at moment), removing middle steps, putting on a DIY versabutton, and attaching 1/8" amsteel daisy chain. Prior to mods, 4 stock heliums weighed 13 lbs. So, I saved 4 lbs.
