How to replace a damaged tree stand seat

[@jordanbechtel5784]

Great Idea! I'll be doing this next summer on a couple of stands that have seen better days. I might even put a smaller grommet in the middle of the seat to allow water to drain vs collecting in the seat.

Jordan, Grommet in the middle for drainage is a GREAT idea! I hope you had a super season! Merry Christmas! -Shane

Here I was about to replace my summit viper. Thanks for the simple idea!

Back Forty, Glad to help! and thanks for the comment! I used to only buy ladder stands with steel mesh seats, but they are so hard on my butt after sitting for several hours. But as you know, the cloth seats are usually only good for a few years if you leave them up year around like most people do. I had to come up with a way to extend their life since I just hate throwing them away! I hope you have a super hunting season brother! -shane

Thanks man! We have repaired our own tree stand seats for years and its amazing how often I can buy expensive ladder stands that just need a new seat for really cheap! Have a super hunting season! -Shane

How big was the piece of fabric you used

[@brandonyoung7760]

I have a 2 man buddy stand that had mesh seats I have to replace

[@AHandleOnThings]

Brandon, I made mine just less than twice the width of the seat and twice the depth of the seat area between the bars. That gave me room for lacing it up and also to double up the fabric. Doubling the fabric is optional, but I always do it. Let us know how yours turns out! Have a great season brother -Shane

Where is a good resource for the canvas?

[@AHandleOnThings]

Neil, Any 600 denier waterproof canvas will do very nicely here is a link to a listing with a bunch of colors on eBay We are not affiliated with the seller and again ANY 600 denier waterproof canvas will do nicely. www.ebay.com/itm/172114209538?hash=item2812ce6b02:g:m7oAAOSwUuFWz1MZ Have a super day! -Shane
