Thanks, Sound! =D
I know I'm months and ever years behind on this topic. But I just got my descending rings and polypro webbing and this is the second thing I have read where someone said to tie a slippery half hitch...
I had just gotten back to Florida and decided to hook my hammock up on the balcony of my apartment. As you can see in the first picture, I had my biner directly attached to a screw in hook in the...
Thanks, Red!
Thanks again, Rock! I could definitely see myself as a future gear junkie! And I will definitely hold off on the sewing for a while. I guess as someone previously mentioned, if I am going to use a...
Thanks for all the information and ideas everyone! I will have to get hanging and see what I think!!
Really appreciate the welcome! Thanks, again!
FLRider, I will look into that! It would be a lot of fun I think.
slowdown, it is an excellent school. Parking is terrible. But the professors are...
Thanks for the info, everyone!
Hey, Bubba, I'm sort of a knot noob. I can do a bowline on a bight and that's about it. How do I make a slippery half hitch? Thanks!
Ok, the larks head looks like it will work. I will go out and give it a shot tomorrow after church. It's pretty dark now, haha. Thanks, guys!
Thanks, everybody! =D
Hey hammockers! I'm looking for some help. I've attached some pictures of what I'm working with here. Basically, I need to know the most effective way to attach these descending rings to my hammock....
Thanks for the info guys! I appreciate it!
Also, what are the specs I should be looking for on carabiners? I'm thinking of getting some just for ease of use, but idk how strong they need to be.
Thanks, Rock. I guess the main issue is that I already ordered the straps and have them. I have a friend with a sewing machine, so I could sew loops on myself. My biggest question is if the sewn...
Thanks, Gumbo and crackrbilly!
Currently I have no Facebook, so I'll be looking here for most of my info on central Fl hangs!
And crackr, that's awesome! Hopefully we can pull off the upset...
Thanks, Olddog! I appreciate the welcome. If I can be there, I will!
I have a similar question. I just got some polypro webbing from strapworks. I didn't see an option to have them sew loops in the webbing, but I'm a noob so I may have just missed it. Anyway, I was...
Hey all. I've actually been a member for close to a month now, but never got around to posting here.

Hey guys, I attached some pictures. Can someone give me some tips on how to attach these descending rings to my hammock? I'm hoping to be able to do it without replacing the rope already attached to...
bhinson - I have used the Slap Straps and I had similar experience as you. Not very much stretch, certainly not enough to leave my butt on the ground. That was just a secondary issue for me, with the...
Thanks for the info! =]
Ok, so I have decided to buy some Polypro webbing and use the descending rings. Now I'm just curious, how many feet of webbing should I buy per strap? I was thinking somewhere between 12 and 15. Any...
Thanks Rob and Harrellt! I appreciate the info!! Looking forward to getting this started!!
I appreciate all the responses! Currently weight is not a huge issue for me because I am not using my hammock for camping or backpacking, just lounging on campus and such. And thanks for the heads up...
Hey all, I'm new to the hammock world and I recently purchased an Eno DN. As fate would have it, the store was sold out of Slap Straps, so I decided to do a bit of research. I've seen a lot of...
