I see your point for all intents and purposes that does seem to be a much better deal. Thanks for the heads up.
Was looking for a reasonably priced tarp for an upcoming hang and one of the guys in my squad pointed me to this site. Was wondering if anyone had tried any of this gear?...
wow just realized what was causing the problem with my hang I didn't attach my ridgeline to get my 30 degree lay. sometimes I have to tap the forward assist.
welcome from sc.
I completely understand the fear of the top rail failing I kept touching it last night and it worried me to the point that I inserted a dowel just in case the die cast coupler decided to fail it...
here are the pictures
made mine last night couple of issues I still need to correct. 1) my son is jealous so I have to make another one. 2) slippage at the binding points. Did you use duct tape or just electrical tape? 3)...
Thank you for the type I need, but how much I need would be very helpful.

He is 11 last weekend he wanted to make a fire with a bow. I tried explaining to him if you keep a lighter in a ziploc bag a bow isn't needed (I have used a bow I know) after 20 minutes he said give...
My end goal is to have something I can carry in and set up if needed. Our base camp is roughly a mile hike, so I'm looking for something under 8 pounds and short enough to attach to my pack. I...
Thanks makes sense. the hardest thing to decide on is how light I can go and still have something I am not afraid to hang my son from. It's bad if I get hurt but if he gets hurt I'm not going home.
OK I believe that is the right idea. thanks I guess I'll be headed to HD to try that I might be able to free up some space with that because I tried hanging my son from my rig and when your right...
Ok after 4 days I have made it to the end of the thread. I have 2 questions 1) what is the difference in force if you run 1 leg of the tripod under the hammock instead of away from the hammock? and 2...
I have pretty close to the same set up, and here is what I have found. I use the space in between the knots works fine(5 nights no fall). problems I discovered is if you use it in that end loop it...
thank you I am going to miss the April hang due to national guard drill dates this month. I am thinking of heading to table rock this weekend to check that area out. Has anyone been there before? any...

It is the top ridgeline for the bugnet.
I am currently in the spartanburg area myself.
New to the thread been reading DIY for awhile some great info. Started hanging at Ft. stewart in the 90's, but at the time all I used was the net hammock which tended to catch on all my gear (I was...
