Jungle hammock here.
Put me down (get it,thats funny) for 3 bags.
I just had a vision of a quilting group like my mother use to have over every week, except I see a group of men trying to work the sewing machine and...
It is also a great idea to check all knots biners and hardware each and every time you set up. The one time you dont could mean a quick introduction to the ground.

So a quick question. How many bags for 1/2 or 3/4 underquilt? Then I can start begging the wife. I mean after all I had to sell some organs to buy her a new camera that allows her to see the moon.
So how well did the acrylic blanket work? What was the temp.?
Mike
Yeah draw us a picture.
Mike
Thanks for the info. Now I have a few trails to look at.

I don't think 3 is to young as long as you are there while they are in the hammock.
I can't get the images to show in the post but you can see them in my gallery. Please all feedback is welcome/ needed. I am interested in improving my DIY skills.

I tried to attach a picture so that you could see the cuts I am talking about but I can't get it to work.
Mike

So what is the verdict? Is the buy going to happen or not? I'm not trying to be pushy, just curious.
Mike
I voted no but would be willing to get one if the group votes yes. I do agree with all that has been said so far. And no matter how this buy turns out I would like to thank Iafte for all he has done...

No problem. Everyone here has been more than willing to help me. And I know some of the questions I have ask have been asked a thousand time before.
Again great site with great people.
Mike
I'm not sure if the results of my test would change had I increased the time.
I do know that the rain falls from above and the straps slop down when the hammock is hanging. So I will be changing my...
First let me start by saying this was a lot easier than pulling out the water hose.
Set-up: -One stock strap from Claytor Jungle hammock
-One bowl of water
-Wire frame...
Great looking set-up. I don't have a sewing machine so I will have to figure out something else but thankyou for the ideas its a big help.
Mike
NO wind last night so I dont think that was the problem. I tried a little experment with the water hose and found that the straps act like a sponge and soak all the way to the hammock body.
Mike
Yeah I am very new to fabric... How do I get a feel for it if I'm not sure what I am looking at. I have a claytor and I am not sure what fabric it is made of but no fabric at the store seemed to even...
