Never got an answer here but that worked out for the best.  I went to a local steel fabrication shop and paid an expert to install the clamps for me.  I made duplicates of the hanging brackets with chain for right at $10.  I used idea I learned on this post to use hockey pucks on the cable for spacers.  Materials included chain, cable, cable clamps, rubber sleeves for cable, stainless steel s-hooks.

Incidentally, when the guy from the steel fabrication shop saw the assembly of cable, chain, hockey pucks, and plastic tubing he asked what in the world it was used for.  I told him that the most I could tell him that it had something to do with my wife and the bedroom.

I just use chain, spaced with tennis balls.  I use the same size chain that comes with the stand, and an "s" hook.  The wedge lays over the chain links just fine, and self-aligns, or "turns" the link.  I was afraid of self-installed cable clamps.

bama sorry no response but you can buy a tool to install the clamps and a 1/4 clamp will hold a couple thousand pounds. I just use the screw down type and when ya double the coated cable into them, I have never had one pull apart. I make mine now for around $5 total cost. Shawn

Ok, Just what the heck is a Chippewa Stand?

Here ya go Doug,

very secure stand when properly mounted.

Doug do a search for them.(Chippewa Wedge-Loc) They are a treestand that has a wedge-loc that slides into these brackets and secures them to a tree due to the wedge it tightens as ya push down on the stand.  I own two of them and have over 40 stand sites with these brackets. Shawn

Ahhh thank you very much wihill, Doug

How high do you go up the tree generally Shawn.  I would guess that you move the steps to the stand you wish to hunt each day, right?  I like the looks of these stands!  I'm a big ole boy @315#.

Thanks Shawn.  Its a great stand, but the retail price of the extra brackets seemed a little stiff when you want a large number of them.  We built a dozen of them.  The steel fabrication plant charged $2 per stand to install the cable clamps but I must say I feel more comfortable having them professionally installed.
