Howdy folks, I'm fairly new to hammock camping beyond the summer months, so I'm finding myself with lots of questions. These forums provide a great deal of wisdom, but not much beats practice and just trying things out yourself. Also, for some things, there are just so many options floating around out there with no clear "best" solution (think: tarp setups). I'd love to try things out and see what works best for me, but the problem is: I have no mature trees in my yard!

I have some spare 10 foot steel pipes that I've thought about making into two teepees (with three pipes each), hammered into the ground and reinforced with some guy lines. Then each teepee would be secured by tying some rope towards the top. Do you think this would work, or have any ideas that would help? My preference is to avoid any setup that's expensive, hard to install, or takes up a lot of space when dismantled.
