Ever made a Tree Stand?

[Biggs]

I'm thinking about making a couple of hang on tree stands this summer. I would like to see pics of some homemade tree stands and any suggestions on problems i should watch out for. I'm thinking angle iron would be the best but im not sure how much its gunna cost me cause metal prices rose along with gas and corn... I've got a good welder and a basic design idea but it prolly needs some fine tuning. thanks alot

square tubing and remember, your life is counting on your welding skills.

Good thing i'm not doing the welding, or I would die. Anyway my gf's dad owns a welding business and is really really good...

If that is the case, aluminum square tubing.
