Awesome thanks... I'll try it tomorrow
How tight do I need to go?
So now that I have all the parts, how do I tighten it because the threads don't necessarily go on easy. I'd love any feedback.
Thanks,

yeah dude, post some pics
That's awesome!
So I know what to do with my gear when I'm sleeping, but what if I go on an excursion - and I'm leaving my hammock and what not back at camp?
What do I do with my setup when I'm gone - just...
I just tell my wife that she needs to deal with it - 'cause it keeps me out of trouble and out of bars.
I'm definitely going to use the calculator for my next hang - thanks!
if we could see some pics we could help!
got any pics as words aren't helping us at all?
what percentage of your hammock length is your ridgeline... optimal (at least a starting point) is 83% of overall length (from where your straps attach to your hammock)
I was always under the impression with a hammock whipped at the ends, that the wider the hammock - the flatter the lay...
Are you laying in your hammock at an angle? That usually helps.
How...
I usually use a lower setup if I'm expecting cold/rain/wind (so it's really close to my face) but I have it cranked down hard to have it as taught as possible.
All in all - it's not bad - got it...
So I had the same question - and here is the thread http://www.hammockforums.net/forum/showthread.php?t=44445
I'm guessing you have the ends whipped - so you need to open that back up and put...
I am so happy about the direction this thread went!
Yeah, I have a setup on my porch using a vinyl siding support and a 1/2 inch pvc pipe that I have closed behind my storage door - I have a couple engineer buddies and they can't believe that it...

It might be that I put it up all the time, and even to my father in law's Sunday dinner (he has the best spacing of trees for it)... My wife thinks I'm crazy - little does she know that she's...
They also have ENO product booklets to give you some good ideas... I dunno what it is about looking at a booklet rather than googling an image but it works for me....

Anybody in the Hampton Roads/Richmond area ever seen a camping hammock?
Is hammocking only for the Midwest?
any idea of what the name of the pads are from walmart?
So I'm going to be camping/fishing in February on the James River near Richmond, VA. I'm going with a bunch of tent campers and want to impress them and hopefully convert them.
My question is,...
So I set it up and wanted to see how low I could go (coverage/windblocking) and then it started to rain so I just left it up - as it turns out it kept it dry.
