    Steel Box Frame Stand

    This stand is the subject of a video that ramblinrev did. Uses 8 ft 4x4 and is the solution to "Weak stand" problems... I missed out on the Clearence of these from www.hammocks.com. If anyone has a spare they'd like to sell, Or know of a site that also had them, Please let me know... They said they might be getting some more in a couple of months. Would like to use in the yard where there are no trees.

    I don't know about anyone else but it was the $19 with no shipping that prompted me to pull that trigger. At the going price for that I think I would opt for another stand. Now if they get more in and wait for them to put them on clearence again.... hehehehe.
    I may be slow... But I sure am gimpy.

    You are killing me rev, No shipping? $19.00??
    Well thanks for the update... How's it working out for you? Got enough height and span? I know it's solid compared to everything I've seen out there...

    $19... free shipping Fed Ex regular delivery. It must have cost more to ship than I paid for it. It is serving me well. But if I am able once we sell the house I will be finding a more attractive stand that will hopefully fit in the bedroom.

    I was going to paint/stain mine the same color as the deck (To blend in) and maybe put some hooks on it so the wife could hang some plants on it when not in use...
    Hope this forum helps me find one...
