 With
the base finished, add two final struts to the bottom on an angle.
This gives the stand a tremendous amount of additional strength.
Now its time for the uprights and seat. |
 Cut
the uprights to your desired length (seat height). Glue and screw. |
 Add
a second upright. Glue and screw. Use 3" or longer
screws. |
 A
piece of 3/4" plywood ties several points together (very strong). |
 Add
a top piece. |
 Add
angled pieces for the seat. Note the "saw-toothed" metal
brackets on the bottom and top back plates. These brackets give
the stand "bite" into the tree when fastened. |
 Add
the seat. Add the cable. |
| More to come.... |
