I've seen a lot of talk about using chains and turnbuckles in place of ratchet straps on many different threads here and one pretty good diagram but no photos. Does anyone have any pictures?
Additionally, most seem to talk about drilling more holes in the stand. This concerns me because I don't want to weaken the stand. This makes me wonder why you couldn't just use carabiners or big S hooks AROUND the frame of the stand instead of drilling through the stand to attach the chain and turnbuckle?
What size chain do you guys prefer?
I have one double ladder stand for hunting with my kids and I'm about to buy some more.
Thanks for the input.
