    Wabonnet TQ questions

    I'm looking at adding a WBBB 1.1 DL to my gear pile. I read a bit about the Yeti quilt and it's asymmetrically shape and the extra room at the left shoulder. I have a good bit of money invested in Hammockgear UQs so my question is; will my current UQ fit the WBBB fine? I hate to have to buy another hammock specific UQ. I have both a 3/4 and full length but prefer my full length.

    I watched Shugs video about UQs and had an idea that if I untied the knots on my Hammockgear UQ at the Niteize biners and added a linelock to each elastic cord. I could then make my current UQ hang slightly assym by tightening one end and loosening the opposite end/opposite side. I'm sorry if I'm not explaining that very well.

    I haven't seen a WBBB in person but it seems like it would work fine.

    I'm actually watching more videos right now and saw a better view of the right side footbox. Very cool design. I don't see me making my HG UQ fit that far over but a small UQ foam pad in that area should work well if I could rig a way to keep it in place on up and over there.

    I'm liking this hammock a lot from what I see.

    My incubator fits perfect on my WBBB.
    There is a tie out for the net at the foot end, ( by the footbox) of the WBBB that alines perfect with one of the loops at the end of my incubator. I tie the tie out to the loop on the Inc and it stays in place keeping my feet warm without slipping off the footbox. I am going to sew a small loop into the tie out on the WBBB and then I can use a small carabiner to attach it.

    Sweet! One of the little things I didn't know without seeing it in person.

    Now, all I need to do is choose some expendable gear to post for sale to pay for it. Thanks everyone!

    Here is a photo of my WBBB + Incubator 20 deg.
    This is my first hang with the Incubator, but initially it fit well.[IMG][IMG]http://http://www.hammockforums.net/forum/picture.php?albumid=1385&pictureid=11822[IMG]
