Sold. Payment received.

Ok here are the pics. I didn't have a 2 liter bottle to compare it to but it fit in a stuff sack I made for a kelty cosmic 20 degree down bag. I didn't weigh it. You'll have to go to arrowhead...

I'm out of town till tomorrow evening. I'll get you one when I get home. It will be quite a bit bigger than a 2 liter bottle, that's why I'm letting it go actually. It's fairly bulky but would be...

4 season Owyhee top quilt by Kick *** Quilts. Black in color. I believe it is regular length. I'm 5'11" and it's plenty big enough for me. I can measure it or post pics if needed. No damage or...

I'll take it. One walkabout rain fly in black

I wish I could learn to enjoy sounds in the night. I just can't hear crunching leaves or rustling brush without panic/terror setting in until I identify the source. Coyotes howling, raccoons...

Here's a pic of the tag on the inside of the tongue. Couldn't find any more size markings anywhere.

[QUOTE=darkblade1000rr;1681119]Are these normal width....10.5 D(M)?[/QUOTE

The box says nothing about width I will look at the shoes when I get a chance. I believe they are just normal (D) width

Selling these because I ordered them online and waited too long to try them out and my return time frame expired. They are too narrow for my feet and run just a little small compared to most shoes I...

Scored a Singer 403a in a table. It's a night and day improvement compared to the table top $150 brother machine that I had been using. It is smooth and doesn't pucker the fabric. Seams come out...

Well I've missed Feb. and started a new job in March that will severely limit my free time so I'm tapping out. Good luck to everyone else.

Several good places to hang east of you. Elk river hiking trail at Elk city reservoir has to be very high in the running for #1 trail in Kansas. Also cross timbers state park has a couple good...

I made a single layer 11', 2.2 hex 70 XL from RSBTR and I really like everything about it especially the extra width. My feet almost try to slide off of a 58" wide hammock at times.

I am in the process of making a Costco down throw under quilt. Since it has sewn through construction and not baffles I am considering adding a panel of fabric to the bottom of it that would hang...

I have the seams ripped and down pushed to one side for an under quilt like the one made by the OP. I am thinking of sewing a loose panel of maybe argon 67 attached around the edges with some darts...

Thanks for answering the question that was asked.

I'm not sure it matters which way it gets done either. That's what I intend to answer for myself eventually but wanted to see if anyone else thought it made a difference. I do know however if you...

I think I'm going to pick up one of these 2 liter stainless steel bottles off of E-bay or take the paint off of the dollar store stainless water bottles we've been using if they'll sit on top of my...

I am sure I am over analyzing it. I've had some hangs that were more comfy than others and I wish I had studied my setup harder following the good nights in order to try to replicate my results more...

Now we're cooking. Lets say for example you start with tree straps level to the world and toggles tied into the straps the same distance out from each tree and the whoopee slings equal in length and...

Thanks everyone. My question is not if, why, or how much to raise the foot end in relation to the head end. I have a firm grasp on that. I am just curious if most folks have any preference...

I do plan to HMOH. I totally understand the dynamics and reasons for hanging head end slightly lower than foot end. Just a thought I had and hadn't seen this discussed I think the "finer points"...

Your body stays level to the world it just shifts where your body rests in the hammock and helps avoid calf ridge and I believe aids in a getting a slightly "flatter" lay. I realize having your head...

I am playing with head low feet high hang angle, trying to find my comfort zone for my hammock. I am sure there are tons of variables that could affect this from hang to hang such as tree-tree...

Started late but have 3 consecutive months starting in November through January.

In the process of testing a 1.6 Hexon with knotty mods from Dutch. It seems like it's going to be quite a bit better than my Diy 1.9 single layer. It has some stretch but not as much as the 1.9 I...

My daughter and myself hung a night out on Jan. 30 2016, on the Elk river hiking trail in Southeast Kansas. At about 3:00 am temp was still in the low 50's so our 20 degree insulation was plenty...

I must have gotten the only " bad " accurite, suction cup, thermometer at wal-mart. Mine might jump 10 degrees at a time. In the house it runs close to my indoor/outdoor thermometer most of the...

Oh yeah. Even if you are getting along good with your first one you'll eventually start to get curious if some other kind of fabric or maybe a bridge hammock or something longer or shorter might be...

You're right. This thread turned into a DIY project with fabric from rsbtr since a Dutch poly d showed up on the for sale forum. I knew the poly d would for sure would meet the low stretch...

Just turned out an 11' 2.2 oz hexon XL and gave it a quick test on the hammock stand and.... So far so good. It definitely has less stretch than my 1.9 ripstop as I was hoping for. A good...

My 2.2 hexon XL fabric came in this week so I should get to test it out before the weekends over if things go well with the sewing machine.

Haven't done it yet but I am making plans for extending my stay on some public hunting areas where it will allow me to hunt some places farther from the road without having to walk in so far in the...

I would send you down the path to the simple Dutch hammock too or any simple gathered end hammock for that matter. Since you are new to all this like I was not that long ago it will give you as good...

You know how it is though. Any excuse to tinker with equipment in pursuit of that perfect balance of weight, bulk, and comfort.

Confirm this with Paul at arrowhead if you go that route but weight ratings are usually on the conservative side. Oh and 11 foot is the way to go IMO.

Assuming you are car camping and that you already own a sleeping bag or about any kind of blanket/s to use as top insulation, I too would look hard at the kits that Arrowhead Equipment offers. With...

It might be more than I need to achieve the results I am looking for. My objectives are lighter weight than a double layer 1.9 nylon and less stretch than a single later of 1.9oz nylon. So even...

Am I correct that Poly D is the lowest stretch fabric of all current options?

Sounds like the 2.4 hexon is a good place to start for what I am shooting for. Thanks for all the feedback.

Anything that doesn't look anything like a deer or other big game during hunting seasons! I tend to think in terms of safety if someone needed to find me if I was injured, sick, or lost, since I'm...

I am wanting to buy a new single layer hammock and I am looking at the Dutch single layer 11 foot hammocks and trying to narrow down fabric choices. I have a DIY double layer 1.9 that I'm pretty...

I'm getting in late on this too and may not get it done but so far have a November hang on the hammock stand and spent last night at Cross Timbers State park. Not a soul around. It's a hammock...

I've never lived there but I don't think I would be able to sleep in a hammock or tent for that matter. There are too many bears up there that don't have much respect for humans. But if I did my...

Mountain goat is a very good option.

Thanks for putting these videos together. My daughter hasn't seen this one yet but commented this morning as I was re-watching one of your trip report videos, "he's just got a good attitude about...

If that doesn't connect the evolutionary dots I don't know what would.

I'll take it. Pm me your paypal. And I will get you paid right away.

I might make a suggestion on how to approach gearing up based on my own experiences and where I could have saved myself a fair amount of money along the way. I compromised on a few items when I was...
