    Hello from Northern VA

    Well, first of all Thanks to anyone reading this post.
    This place is awesome and so are the like minded people in it. I haven’t read a negative thread yet, so there must be some real artists in here who understand; constructive criticism, the open exhange of ideas, and giving some great advice.
    Although I am not totaly new to hanging, with this combined archive of vast knowledge I suddenly feel as if I am.
    I have progressed from the fishnet hammocks to the paracute gathered end variety to owning 3 hennessy hammocks all with 2QZQ mods, JRB quilts and living the dream.

    The only real problem I am faced with and can’t seem to find the answer to anywhere on this site is: how to get me and my wife into the hammock comfortably where she can switch from laying partially on top of me, to side by side without all the squeeze?
    Until then we have been doomed to ground dwelling for the full nights sleep. I guess I got the picky wife who insists we aren’t sleeping together if we are in separate hammocks under the same tarp. UGH! Am I the only one here? Why is cuddling so important that I have to carry an extra tent and 2 neo air mattresses to make her happy?

    So Hello all and I hope to meet some of you out on the trails…

    Welcome to the forum.

    Shug nailed it. That's the closest DIY project to what you're describing. Direct Link.

    Also check out dblhmmck's gallery for some pics of two person bridge designs -



    There is also the commercially made Clark Vertex, for something a little different.

    Can't help you with the problem and it sounds like it has been answered. I just wanted to say Hello. I am about 20min. south of Fredericksburg, and work there. So HELLO from Milford- about 5 min from A.P. Hill.

    the clarks do have a seperation "shelf" in between the two sides. so as to not disturb the other if you get out at night.
