tack another vote on the wall! well done!
Title says it-
if you could use ~2 yds (2yds x 5ft.) of digital-camo fabric, here you go- just pay shipping!
-fabric weight ~6.5oz/sq.yd. (not as thick as you might think.)
-it fits into a small...
Trying to thin the closet :D
MHW convertible pants:
* sz Small
* 14.9 oz
* 2-3 small stains (see pic)
* 6" inseam
* $20 shipped
That DOES sound interesting. Pics PLEASE! I also thought about just having a knot or two sewn into this "pouch" of sorts. Although, elastic bands still seem to have my interest!

yeah, I thought about that when thinking of other materials to use for stretchi...ness, but I can't figure out how to attach it to the webbing. I THINK sewing is out for this, but if I can find...
I can dig just the "c-way"... might change that :cool:
Speculation here, but if I were to get some HEAVY DUTY elastic band (think suspenders), would there be any good bit of interest in people buying these? I think I would switch to the band just because...
This gave me a REALLY good laugh reading this :lol:!
"...be... sure... to... drink... your... OVALTINE?! A crummy commercial!? Son of a b!^@#!"
you OBVIOUSLY didn't drink your Ovaltine!
I think acercanto did something SIMILAR to that by splicing some shock cord with his guylines. Make sure to post about it! Just remember... pictures or it didn't happen :lol::D!
Rook, pm heading...
Made a few of these for a "gear swap" that a local outfitters has every fall and spring. I was just "advertising" these as dog leashes, but the guy next to me said they could be used for...
Hey Schwieb,
I agree with you, compared to splicing 7/64 Amsteel, my 2.2 Zing-it/Lash-it (whichever it is) is a real pain. I know I don't have the "proper" tools, so maybe that's it, but I can get...
It might be just because I never put a structural RL on it, but I have a "The Travel Hammock" Ultrlight Travel Hammock, and I just cannot get a flat lay in it. It's 9'6"x4'6". It's still great for...
That's what I changed my DIY hammock over to. I had it in the HH whipping per HC4U's tutorial (a FANTASTIC beginner read) and changed it just to try something different. It also gave me a chance to...
Now I just can NOT remember from Hammock101- Vid 10 what the dimensions on that tarp are :confused:! I think 12 3/4 x 7 6/64, right :laugh::lol:? I really Do like the size of this tarp, though! Might...
WHOOOAH! I just reread my post, and I kinda sound like a debbie-downer... or doug-downer-- whatever the guy version of that is :lol:. Sorry :D! I REALLY like the idea of minimizing the # of stakes--...
hey opie984,
To me, scittlefield's suggestion seems most efficient-- connecting the shock cord from hammock side-pull directly to the existing tarp-tieout stake, instead of to the tarp-tieout. You...
Hey Lost Cause!
Great tip on the "windows+d" command. VERY useful!
I mean, I think it's pretty bad, I find myself sometimes surfing the forums during class =/
as well, as per your avatar...
I'm...
Hey psyculman! Please post back when you finish!
so where are the pictures :D?
Hey Knotty,
Thanks for the instructions! I undid (is that a word?) the old whipping and replaced it per your video and added a whoopie sling ridgeline for adjustability! What a difference it makes...
If you DO know how to sew, and are not opposed to doing so, you might think about this- http://www.sunnysports.com/Prod/KLTBG35R.html
I've been thinking about getting one of these, sewing a line...
bump...
now this message isn't too short :D
Just like on Amazon, does she come with the hammock :blush:;)?
j/k, of course :rolleyes::D:lol:!
Well dagum, Shug! I just get caught up by watchin' vids 5 & 6, I sign off, lolly-gag around doin some homework, log back on and you go and post yet ANOTHER video! You, sir, are a video-making DYNAMO!...
So I think it is what Tinny called his "Super Pot"-- holds 16oz.
Not really wanting to spend more than maybe $10-12 shipped for this. Don't really need it, but wouldn't mind having it :D! If you...
Just ordered mine! WHOOP WHOOP!
"...I can even walk around in the buff" -- NICE!
Just ripped into the package a few hours ago. SWEET! Thanks Ope! I know I, as I am sure many others, REALLY appreciate all of the time you've put into this! KUDOS!
Does anyone know where one can acquire non-coated polyester ripstop? preferably 1.1oz if not lighter? Thanks

I believe pegleg is talking about making four(4) total quilts- UQ&TQ for summer and UQ&TQ for spring/fall. RIGHT? And then combining the UQs and the TQs for a singular winter setup. RIGHT? I really...
DAGUM! You make this all look soooooooooo easy! Really NICE quilt, unsponsored! REALLY NICE!
wasn't sure where to post this.... buuuuut last night during the opening ceremonies for the 2010 Winter Olympic Games, there was this kid being suspended by wires and flying over the stadium floor,...
Just thought of this as I clicked "post"... stuffing it with something MIGHT cause an uneven coating/impregnation on the fabric-- some silicone could soak through the fabric and, instead of staying...
I might be wary of packing peanuts. Don't they melt, or disintegrate or something when they get wet :eek::scared:? Or so I've heard... could be completely wrong :confused:. I know you mentioned "or...
I don't see why not. You WOULD want to make sure that as it dries you keep it from folding in on itself. If it does, you will end up with 1) the fabric sticking to itself and 2) uneven sil coating....
So I was at the post office this afternoon shipping a pair of shoes to this guy out in Colorado -irrelevant, i know- and I overheard the conversation next to me. What caught my attention was the...
DAAAAAAAAAAANG Scruff (McGruff, Chicago, IL, 60652.. and take a BITE outta crime!)! Nice tarp! It must be the season for East Tennessee-boy tarp makin'! WOOOOOOO BUDDY! -I feel like shug :D- Just...
as well, are there any restrictions temp-wise when it come to this concoction working? I've got a tarp that needs seam-sealing, and I think the highs for the next few days fluxuate only between...
...and that's why Tennessee is better ;):lol::D
haha! That's what we say all of the time in the Pride of the Southland.
Last winter, we were hurried out of the buses only to have to wait about 3 hours before we were able to march in the inaugural...
GAHLEE! Ain't that the truth!? No doubt, it IS i great site. TONS of usefull info and help, but there just seem to be a consistent few who are all about the "my way or shut it" mentality. ...
Yo Paul!
Personal paypal thingy just sent! I think this would be more beneficial than me ordering fabric and then sending off the hammocks. This way, I can just include the $ that would be shipping...

Thanks! And VOL fan? YOU BETCHA :D! And I'm a junior in Landscape Design :)

Haha definitely a seamSTER :D! and I would hardly consider myself that. Some crooked seams? most def:scared:! But will it keep me dry? Let's hope:laugh:!
Can't hang today- had church this morning...
Yes, like snakeskins, socks slide over the hammock/insulation. They use the dead air space around the hammock to retain the heat that you produce during the night. W/ out it, wind can blow away your...
