Title: Tree stands, Can they be home made?
Post by: ydeardorff on September 18, 2011, 04:48:52 PM: I was curious,
Im not made of money as Im sure alot of us here have the monetarily challenged degree,... :chuckle:

I was curious, if it possible to build you own tree stand? Like a really high up one.
I have an old plumbers rack from a toyota I could hack up and re-weld together if I knew the basics of how they worked. Ive just never seen one in person.

Or if anyone knows anybody not using one, Id be willing to trade something for one. I do have an extra 5K generator Im not using that needs the carb cleaned, otherwise it seems to work fine.

Any thoughts?
