Does anyone have an updated measurements for the XLC netting? I did, about 10 years ago, make a blackbird based off the links above, but I am after an updated xlc version with the right curved edges...

I am not by any means new to Hammock camping. I have been doing it for about 12 years now. But only recently have been camping sub 30 and grabbed myself a HGUQ econ... It is rated well within the...

This isn't really the thread for this question, but I'll answer the best I can.

Firstly the rl gives you a consistent hang (sag). You'll want it so that you aren't constantly readjusting your...

Exactly my point. That's why I am asking why every blueprint thus far has the shelf side being shorter.

I still don't understand why the two 'sides' of the triangle have to be the same length? In all vids/pics of the blackbird I've seen, the side angling up to the end/whipping is longer then the side...

Any luck yet xxl_hanger? I'm still confused as to why the shelf side is shorter then the hammock body? Any tips?

Hi xxl_hanger.

I have been looking at making a second DIY BB but following the PFD rather than the blackgoatgear site. I am very confused as to what your doing here? Is this correcting the...

I am interested in buying one of these, though I am not sure about the netting. Could you give me a good idea of the netting size? like what shape is it? Cheers mate.

Where did you get the in instructions for you bugnetting?

Otter. Still hanging out for the WR3. Any news.

That would be amazing if you could do that. Would you also mind messaging me the dimensions of all the triangles too? Cheers. :)

Any more news on this Otter?

Anyone have dimensions for the sky bed? Just can't get my hands on one and am wanting to make one.

Have I missed it? Is it on another thread? Or are we all hanging on for this to come out? I am so keen Otter. ;)

Are there any PDF's of this or something similar? I am very keen. :D

*the rl not the body length?

Ah... That explains a lot. I didn't realise it was the rl. Will try it with that. How did you find out that the 8, 9, 10 referred to the body length.

So... I have actually made a BB with blackgoats instructions, but I found the shelf massive and the box (triangle) too small, making that whole side way too taught. Looking at the actual BB the...

Well done. :D That looks sick!!!! How much material did you use, as in I am ordering some multicam for the outer shell and am wondering how much I'll need? 2 yards? Well done mate.

Ghillieshot.

We shall soon see. ;)

Great idea. I was thinking of incorporating this in an Uq/Tq after seeing it in a sleeping bag. I just didn't know what the technique was. Sick bro. God job.

Cheers Otter. No stress at all. You are doing us a HUGE favour. Please don't feel pressured, was just checking. Cheers mate. You have a great mind for this stuff. Cheers mate.

Can anyone make a vid explaining differential uq designs?

Any Adelaide Hangers?

Hey Otter. Any news on when we'll be seeing the WR3?

Hey [o]TTeR, any idea when the RIII will be out?

Cheers,
Ghillieshot

So @[o]TTeR, when is the RIII coming? I'm keen to see what it's like and new updates. Cheers for the work mate.

I have to give a huge shout out to Dutch for superb service. I bought a bunch of items from him and throughout the whole process he was superb. He was able to help me sort out a few problems and all...

Nice bro. :D That's my set up too, thought I tend to have shorter tree straps. :D Keeps it lighter. Good job.

Ghillieshot.

Nah mate. You made it very clear. There are some people who just can't visualize things. I don't even have whoopie hooks and I know exactly what your doing here. Well made vid. Don't worry about the...

Wow. Well done mate. Your a great help. I love learning knots.

Ghillieshot.

Thanks heaps for your help. Was just reading through this and saw the question I posted originally, as I read it I was wondering the exact same thing, then I realised that it was a post originally by...

Wow. Thank you all for your help. I will look into all of these helpful pieces of information. I think the bigest problem I have right now is my working space. It's literally in my bedroom as I am...

Hey guys,

So I have been making hammocks for quite a few years now. But a time consuming tedious part of it (besides all the sewing. ;) ) is trying to measure out the fabric and cut it...

I am keen on the ridgerunner.

Same. I am looking for some here in Australia. I am going to end up having to buy a WBRR. :( Any help would be lovely. Thanks guys.

Ghillieshot.

Do you guys know if WB is having a sale? I am after a WBRR and shipping to Aus kills the chance of that. Unless there's someone on here who's wanting to sell theirs. ;)

Cheers,
Ghillieshot

Hey Derek, how do you keep the shotchord behind your back from riding up? I have put little loops on my hammock and am going to test it out soon. :D

Ghillieshot

Very well done. :D Keep up the great DIY projects. :D Well worth it in my mind. You learn and save. :D Win win.

Ghillieshot.

Thanks for all the support everyone. :D Highly appreciated. :D I am hoping to do some new videos soon on my new hammocks, and different ideas/mods I have done with them. Seeing it is nearly a year...

Hi there guys. I made one of these a few years ago. And I really like it, if I am going more towards UL. The only issue I had with it is, the shot chord underneath you when your in the hammock, would...

Hey guys, the title says it all.

I am after a Warbonnet ridgerunner. It needs to be shipped to Australia. So if your getting rid of one, let me know as I am keen. Thanks.

Ghillieshot

I will take it. PM Sent.

Ghillieshot

PM Sent. Cheers.

Any more dimensions?

So far we have

Weight 498g

Width 5ft

Lengths (nearly) 10ft

Yeah, I didn't include the overhand method, as It isn't one I felt was regarded as useful. It tends to chew up a lot more fabric then needed, but they are effective and simple enough. Cheers guys for...

I AGREEEE 100%!!!!!!!!!!!!! WAYYYYYYYYYY OVER PRICED AND NOT EVEN THAT GOOD. They weigh way too much. Not worth it.

Wow. That's not much help. Anyone want to share a few tips on their Clarks for those who don't want to spend their mortgage on a piece of material can experiment.

spoonmaker, do you have any tips with the under pockets? Are they just sewn to the hammock like a full rectangle with baffles? Or is it two pieces of material that are only sewn to the sides of the...

Cheers guys. I have a web filter on my computer, and so it takes much longer time to find anything. Cheers.
