I made this a while back with a culmination all the info gathered here and modified to what would work for me, and have been meaning to post some photo's for a while. I cut my 2"x2"x8's to 7' slightly taller than the standard 6'. I recycled the stock suspension line from my CJH NX-250 and did a double 3 strand eye splices prussicked to the support bar. Instead of the standard fence pipe I used 2 6' electrical conduit pipes with a threaded connector to allow a little more portability although I think they may be slightly heavier, it makes it easy to just screw/ unscrew the 2 pieces together for quick assembley and storage. I then wrapped the pipe with woodland cammo wrap.

Photos are of my sons HH Scout on the MANNOWAR TD Stand 1.0
will do, thanks for the tips
Looks good Mannowar. The camo tape is a nice touch. I noticed you mitered the legs and used limit lines on the stands. Don't know that I've seen that before. I like it.
Thanks, I had some extra paracord laying around and figured you can't go wrong with extra safety features. Plus I use it to wrap the legs when collapsed for storage to keep it nice and tight.
Unseen in the photo are the 4" ranger bands I made and slipped over the bottoms of the legs; dual purpose keeps the legs from sliding/ moving around when set up in my garage and adds some moisture proofing when set up in wet grass.
Fair Winds & Following Seas.
I know I built it big, but my thought was I could always cut the legs down if they aren't working or got beat up. Also, I wanted to keep span-limiters up high so I could use them as clothes lines, or to hang a grav-feed system.

Olddog, you can add me. Made mine a few months back and use it every day.
