Hi all, I built this PHD stand from some 1.5" scrap pipe and 2" square tubing I had laying around getting rusty doing nothing, so I put it to work. With this setup I am able to back up to it with the tractor, no precision necessary, just get close and I can hook up the PHD myself in just a few minutes with no strain or pain. Thought I share this with you, Larry

Larry don't know if that stand is big enough for when you land that 10 pointer!

Looks good Larry. It might make a good deer skinning stand too!
Hey, in the background is that a heavy duty hydraulic scrape blade with worm gear rotation, linear actuator locking pin, and side shift?

Amazing you two posted the same suggestion for a Dear skinning stand! And virtually at the same time. Not the first time that sort of thing has happened here on the forum. Hey, in the background is that a heavy duty hydraulic scrape blade with worm gear rotation, linear actuator locking pin, and side shift? LOL it sure is! And it still works too. Perhaps you'll get the chance to try it out if you swing by my place on your western vacation trip. You still planning on taking the family out west? If so let me know ASAP so I can take some time off as well. I've been traveling all over creation and need a break. I'll probably be heading to Anchorage Alaska sometime late June early July to install a new instrument that we just introduced. I can schedule around that if I know your heading out this way. If you need any plasma cut parts, bring your design so we can swing by the metal shop and torch them out. Your boys might get a kick out of seeing that. Maybe make them a couple of souvenirs? Larry

Dear skinning? I did it again in response to that subplate question. A little late as usual.. I am sorry to say the big road trip is postponed. Your generous invitation is making me regret it. We will be flying out to Prineville, OR on June 13-29 to see Diane's folks and making some little trips from there. The main thing planned is to hit the coast and do some clamming. Last time we did that was several years ago. I had big ideas about an improved clam gun with a vent tube to allow air under the end so it would be easy to pull out of the sand. Sort of like this, patented in 1981. ^%$#@ ! www.google.com/patents?id=d6AwAAAAEBAJ&pg=PA2&dq=4244614&source=gbs_selected_pages&cad=3#v=onepage&q&f=falseI still might design one and see if I can get it made before the trip. It'll be better than the one in the patent. Speaking of patents, I applied for one for my brother's carpenter bee traps last year. It's still pending examination but in the meantime the bees are buzzing and he's selling all he can make. www.carpenterbeesolutions.com/Anchorage sounds nice. I was there in Dec 96 and Jan 97 splicing cable. You'll be there in the prime season!

Yea whatever Freudian slip I suppose. Clam gun? that's new to me. Of course here in the middle of the desert mountains that should come as no surprise. I love clams and all other edible forms of sea food. Just got back from Seattle WA and pigged out at the Clamp Pot on the port near Downtown Seattle. Their signature dish is steamed Clams, Mussels, Crab Legs, Shrimp, Corn on the cob, potato slices. dumped right on the center of the table, they give you a wood plate, wood hammer a bib and you chow down. It was great. Let me know if you need any plasma cut parts for the clam gun. Perhaps your brother can sell clam guns like his bee traps? I remember you posting a link to that some time ago, looked interesting, simple but effective. Have fun on your NW vacation, sounds like it's going to be a good time. So you were in Anchorage in Dec / Jan 96-97? not the warmest time of year for sure. I've been there several times, I prefer summer. Although it was interesting to experience -60 in Fairbanks in January. The motels have electric hitching posts for your car block heater, spit really does freeze before it hits the ground Larry

Hi Larry...(and Esther... ;D ) I was just thinking about making a PHD stand for use at my home and a "stand of sorts" for mounting to the trailer when I have to use the 354 and parts to help my FIL. I worked with the tractor the past two weekends at my FIL's and managed to smash my left hand and right foot with the PHD gearbox and boom! There has got to be a better way... Jinma-no-ho(e)

A Caribou would fit that just fine! Couple of guys from work in the 80's went to Alaska to hunt Caribou and I lost all interest when I hear of the cost of all the permits!

Hi Larry, Man, nice PHD stand. Wish I had more time to build one myself. I still use that Oak tree branch for the time being. Sorry for not posting as much as usual, I've been very busy around the ranch. Rob-
