Nice! I'm in! Another reason I love the population of this forum
So, 30 minutes after I posted this I was talking to a hiking buddy in class, and he said he would take the stove. So, it's not longer for sale since it has already been claimed, feel free to close...
SOLD - feel free to close the thread.
6' 3" 215 here. I DIY'd a 12' gathered end over the break and I slept like a baby in Panthertown last weekend. I had a doublenest but I couldn't stretch out in it. Now I can lay completely flat. 12'...
Saw this thread a few days ago and decided to make my own. About 30 minutes later I came up with this...
Block of wood, an old fishing rod, and some nails. Works like a charm
My grandma had this jewel put up in storage for a number of years, and it is perfect condition. Should last me a while! First project..... 12' 1.9oz hammock
Actually, this has been moved to the pay it forward section
So this might be too high of a price.... dropped to $5
Dutch clips have been sold
payment pending to nom@d
dropped to $10!!!!
This is leftover Amsteel that I really don't need. They are both right around 6.5' in length with no defects or flaws. These could make great project pieces for soft shackles. $10 including shipping!
I have a spare pair of 1.5" Aluminum Dutch clips that I used maybe 10 times with my tree straps. They have absolutely zero defects, and they are just as strong as when I bought them. $15 including...
I knew there was somewhere I could look to find all this information. Thanks
Planning on making a 1.9oz ripstop gathered end hammock. Will be using 1/8" whoopies and 1" webbing as tree straps. What weight limits would I be looking at? I have never hung in a ripstop hammock so...
Had to give this a try, and I am very glad I did. I used a spare silnylon stuff sack I had laying around. Thanks for this idea
Wow. Amazingly simple. Will definitely be doing this with my spare sil stuff sack
Absolutely love the Kelty Noah 12x12 tarp. Perfect amount of coverage whether it is warm or cold outside. It's got a million tie out points on it, and if you need to bring in the doors, you can do...
Maybe add the Kelty Noah 9x9 and 12x12 tarps. Great article!
You can always buy those little dog bootie things for their paws for them to sleep in while in the hammock
Knot bone on fixed end so that you can adjust the V for that side of the tarp, then the prussik and Figure 9 on the other end to adjust it as well. Prussik your tarp ends to the CRL and boom, you're...
I've been looking for a decent top quilt for a while now, and I have found that for the most part, any 40* down quilt will be ~15 oz, 20* will be ~19-21 oz, and your 0* will be ~23-25. So it's...
Holy moly I like this setup a lot. definitely gonna try this out on the hammock tonight
would it be possible to sew them on with one of those travel sewing kits (or something comparable) from wally world?
I know I have seen this done on tarps before, I just want to know the best way to attach the velcro. Instead of staking off the doors overlapping each other, I want to add velcro strips along the...
Muskrat I received that look quite often from folks as they hiked up to the rock! Some would actually stop and take a second look, and I know they were thinking "where the heck is his tent???" I...
Went to Pisgah National Forest and hiked up to Looking Glass Rock this weekend. Stayed the first night up at the top of the rock, then the second night hiked back down and stayed next to the river....
Awesome! Thanks again for the great customer service Dutch!
No, it's that when I ordered the webbing, i had never really liked how small the 1" slapstraps I used before because I could tell that they cut into some trees with softer wood, so I got the 1.5"...
Dutch, how bout some 1.5" buckles?
Thank you all for the great responses. I'm going to check out the different links and see which ones I can afford. Thanks again!
I would love a good set of hiking poles, but I can't bring myself to spend 100 bucks on a set. Could anybody cut a good deal on a set?
Pm sent your way Dutch
Very nice, hope you enjoy it and the cold weather!
I just ordered some 1.5" seatbelt webbing for tree huggers, and i was wondering if anybody had two 1.5" dutch clips that they would be willing to part with. the payment would be through paypal, and...
what kind of UQ? looks like a leighlo
i use floral wire, doubled over. that 1.75 has a very small core and that's all i have really found to work well for me. i just push it through, grab the end of the zing it, then pull it back...

Dutch sells zing-it in 25' increments. order however much you want. then just attach a bag to a couple prussic loops and there...
had no idea what you were talking about when i read the title. proceeded to check out the website, then spent the next 20 or so minutes drooling over just the features list. for all of our sakes.......
i prefer the ridgeline under the tarp. sags too much with the tarp under the ridgeline
here is the link to my album. I love my noah 12, it's huge and packs down pretty small for it's size

On the diamond, the ridgeline...
kelty noah 12'. found it for 50 bucks from sunny sports. packs to a size that I can fit in the palm of my hand, can hang it in a rectangle shape and pull the corners in for doors, or you can hang in...
coming from a current 2nd year RA here at WCU, I would say move the furniture out of the way, drill the holes, hang the hammock, then for christmas break room inspections and end of the year room...
i've done 37 feet between two trees (only once though) and that was just to test out the length of my whoopies and the ridgeline I had just made for my hammock. took a little bit of adjustment on...
Good deal. Dutch, you'll be receiving an order for 50' (probly more haha) very soon!
Ok, this is going to be a very stupid question, so bare with me.... that means he does not sell it in 25' chunks right? you just order it 25' at a time, and he cuts it in one continuous length? cause...
Good to know. (Dutch, payment is one the way!) And I am still quite jealous of that bugnet you got there. very nice hammock sir.
Anybody have just 50' of Lash-It that they wouldn't mind selling? I really don't need 180' of it
Nice trip! I'm a junior at western and we wear that parkway out all the time. I'm going to panthertown here soon to try out the new gear (Leighlo 20* UQ, Kelty Noah 12, and MSR Pocket rocket), but I...
