I am so glad you are offering black webbing. I was holding back on ordering because I didn't want camo straps. I see you said it is 7 grams per foot, wondering what the camo weighed in comparison or...

Awesome may have to pay a bit more and get stripes on the UQ and TQ I'm planning on ordering later this week, so many colors to choose from such a hard decision!
Ok Thanks everyone looks like I'll be making a stand of some sort then. Don't want to hurt the integrity of the walls. Wish I would have talked to Olddog more and looked at the stands better at the a...
I've actually been to Doe Lake for a Trail Association group new year's eve event, I loved it there! I'm so excited for next year now. Good job at securing the site Gumbo.
I really want to install some anchor points in my room. I was thinking about making a turtle dog stand but the room it takes up is making me consider this method more (I may make a stand still later...
Remember everyone to check yourselves and your pets for ticks, just found one embedded in my leg. Second one I saw out there. I'm still recovering from all the fun and food I will add more reports...
Thanks so much, the colors I had imagined are nothing like the actual ones so helpful to see them!!!
Any chance of getting pictures from you all of the colors of the Argon fabric, grey, green, brown. I am going to purchase a 0 degree Phoenix soon and can't decide on the color. The website doesn't...
Thanks for all the help so far! I'm going to list my 40 degree phoenix and get a 0 degree and keep my 20 degree for warmer weather. I'm going to a group hang later this year and will have someone...
I am still also wondering if I had the quilt on correctly with the Blackbird Hammock. I had the side pull outs staked out (would not staking them out help the quilt cradle my core better?). With the...

I can see many uses for these. Have to remember to check them out next time I'm ordering stuff online. Hope they will be up for order soon on website.
Anyone know the weight on the 144" Ridge Line Tadpole Tarp??? Also looking to get one of these. I'm also excited to see on their website under the new section that by the end of July there will be a...
Omg cool feature of the website. I used it and it states limited stock at a Walmart about 24 minutes from me in Florida wow didn't think I would find a down sleeping bag in stock here. Thinking of...
Clip on tarp pullouts sold by Dutchware anyone try these out. Watching the video of Dutch showing how they work they look interesting. If you have tried them any problems? Ever have one fail? Would...
That's a crazy story Captain Smiley! So impressed with the strength of the bug netting. Love reading all these greetings from Floridians too!
Brambor did you get an answer about whether your order will already have the Argon fabric or not? I haven't heard yet about finding out if my order can be changed.
I am going to go to my local Walmart today and see if I can find some good deals. I will look for the sleeping bag but being in Florida I am doubtful it will be on the shelves. I am looking at buying...
He provided very useful information and even had a couple videos of my hammock and tarp at trailmedic911 on YouTube check them out for anyone looking for more info on this hammock.
Oh wow! I just ordered a 20 degree Phoenix on June 14th. I am going to try contact Hammock Gear and see if it isn't being made already if I can change my order and add ARGON to at least the inner...

I'm planning to use a piece of tyvek as well on my next trip. Not sure how big to cut it? I want it to be large enough mat under my hammock to store my gear and boots. I plan to put gromets on each...
Good tip to wet first before and during use of the down. I would have never thought to do that and would have made a huge mess with potential loss of the precious down. Thanks for the information!
I bow down to the creator of this list. Thank you so much. So nice to have this information all organized in one post. I appreciate you and all that have helped. Great job!
Oh I never thought about looking for older used sewing machine, I bet I could find one for cheap on craigslist. Thanks for the idea. Reading all these DYI projects makes me want to try!
Just got shipping notice already (was prepared to wait for a month). Ordered my superfly tarp on 06/14 and it shipped today and I should have it by Saturday. WOW!!! Brandon must be catching up on...
Thanks Jason as well, I was also searching for the answer to this question. I want a double sided stuff sack for ease of setup but want it to weigh next to nothing. Any other suggestions would be...

Thanks Captain Smiley for helping me ease my mind about my choice. I think I will be happy with it based on your comments (and others). Can't wait to get it!! Do you mind sharing what UQ you use and...
I ended up deciding to list the hammock on ebay, I wanted to sell it on here but didn't have enough posts (50 required) to start a new thread. I didn't want to start spamming the forums just to get...
