Steel prices have come down in the last 8-9 months
But I think it would still be cheaper to just buy the stands

I love ladder stands. I came up with a design I like and have built 4 or 5 and they are spread across our property. All from lumber I got from new home sites, etc. Have yet to buy any lumber, just the nails and bolts.
Unfortunately, this is the only pic I can find of one, but you get the idea  ! Two bottom braces, braces where the foot platform is located, braces for the seat, and then a single brace for an arm/shooting rest

Not hard to put up. This is how I travel when putting one up !

Homemade stands are always nice if ya can find the lumber at a good price. Wished I still had a pic of mine on this computer but guess it got erased. Post pics of what ya decide to build
