    Just Finished Today

    Just finished my first hammock! I learned to sew (somewhat) at the same time. I want to thank the cooperative knowledge of this forum. I was able lay in the hammock for a few minutes. It was a strange experience, almost like floating. I wanted my first post to show the new hammock and suspension. But it was a cry for help to which you guys came to my aid with the sewing machine problem. I first visited the forum late last year, finding it by accident. I was looking at YouTube and I saw one of Shug's videos about his circus days as a Clown. Then many other videos about hammock camping. I never had given a thought about it before. But it seemed like a good idea, so here I am.
