15' Stealth LS with deluxe kit
If you're a buyer's club member they'll deliver this to your door for $113 , you can add some levelers for another $27 . If you can build a cheaper , safer wooden stand than that then go for it . Personally , I wouldn't risk my life over such chump change .

RE: Ladder stand
If you you've only hunted once - how - can somebody make a judgement on - ALL - Wood Stands??
Is the $113 stand fit for a 12 yr old or grown Man(18 x 13" - WOW - Is This a Mis-Print).
I think we owe the original poster more than just a negative view of wooden stands.
You can build a hek of a lot better stand than 18x13" for $113.00 outa wood!!

RE: Ladder stand
Gentelmen Iam reallylooking at wooden home made stands. I've searched out the market for metal stands. Specificaly (sp) I want to build a 15ft ladder stand with a seat and rail. I would like to build it out of wood however I do not know what angels to make the braces for maximum strength and how to fit everything together, what is the best platform size, how high should I make the shooting rail, etc.... All the blueprints I have found are incomplete or just supply lists. Still thanks for the spirited responces.
