That is a great idea.

Can the belt be swapped out on this?

If I lived any closer I would be tempted to buy these, but shipping to California would destroy me.

Very nice, I just made one of those yesterday.

I'm having similar posting issues. I find that if I use my google-foo almost all my questions are answered without any posts needed. So reaching 50 posts will take me a long time, however, I am in no...

What everyone else has said. I was lucky and had some 1.5 mm aluminum wire around that I used. Worked great. Good luck and be patient.

Thank you for asking this, I am planning an underquilt and had a similar question.

I wish I had the extra money to spend on that sweater, that is a great deal. If it's still around when I get paid again I'll pick it up.

I like the idea and if I lived closer I would be willing to help implement it. That said, this being the hammockforum you will get a skewed data set.

I found your videos while looking for ideas for a new diy alcohol stove and stayed for the hammock info. Thanks for getting me back into hammocks.

Nice tip, I think I'll try that!

Thanks for that information. I am planning on making a quilt and now I have more ideas to pull from.

One could buy it for the down. It comes out to roughly $4.40/oz for 25 ounces. It is 550 down, so you might have to make a heavier quilt than with 800 down, but you could make a couple nice summer...

As soon as I get my gear (might be a month or two) I'll be down to hang with you guys. I think I'm looking at a winter hang for my first trip out. Stupid money.

And I'm from just south of...

Wow, there are a few of us California folks on here. We should get a group hang going on, once I get my hammock equipment together I would love to meet up with everyone.

Oh, I've been asking questions already. Had a few for Grizz about the Grizz Bridge but those have now been answered and I'll be trying my hand at making a Grizz Bridge later this year.

After looking at this forum for a few weeks I feel like the only member from Northern California.

I have no hammock yet, thought I would research before spending money. I have been a backpacker...

Grizz, you sure you aren't an engineer? Mathematicians always want exact solutions, engineers are the ones that tend to make an estimate that is "close enough."

It is my understanding that a catenary curve is what you get when a rope hangs only under its own weight. Think about power lines, those are an example of a catenary curve. Once weight is applied to...

TIL that a catenary curve is the physical representation of a hyperbolic cosine function. I could see it was a hyperbolic but was too lazy to look up the definitions. I just had to see the proof to...

I have been looking everywhere for that equation, but I didn't want to bother Grizz. So, since you've already talked to Grizz about this, is that curve structurally beneficial or just aesthetic? And...

I was actually thinking that I don't like velcro and don't trust zippers so I plan to make a winter tarp with magnets to hold the doors closed (and possibly attached) and was also playing with the...

This is my first post! Yay for me.

You can find rare earth magnets, aka Neodymium, at the following URL: http://www.rare-earth-magnets.com/p-23-nsn0591.aspx. The smallest ones weigh .01 grams,...
