Hey all! I'm new to the site and hammock camping in general. Seeing the love of DIY on this site, I was wondering if anyone can recommend any simple modifications to the HH Explorer Zip that would improve my quality of life on the trail. Thanks for reading!
I stripped the suspension from mine & switched to strap/buckle suspension. Got 25' straps & some buckles from Dutch. Got 7/64 amsteel from boating supply. I think Dutch has the amsteel also. Built continous loops with the buckles laced into them. Cut the 1" straps in half & sewed a loop in one end of each. Bought Nano beaners for the loops.
Wrap strap around tree & hook the beaner. Pull straps through buckles to set the sag & your good to go. If straps get wet just remove from buckle & carry separate from your hammock.
Donna at 2QZQ has ideas for you.
