Hi guys, I'm Eric.
I've been quietly reading for awhile now and tonight I decided to take the plunge and order a treklight double, for I am a big man in need of a big hammock.

Hi guys, I'm Eric.
I've been quietly reading for awhile now and tonight I decided to take the plunge and order a treklight double, for I am a big man in need of a big hammock.
Welcome Eric. Hope you enjoy your new Treklight!

Enjoy,

Welcome to HF.
There are a few tricks to learn. Feel free to ask questions.
I too will something make and joy in it's making
Welcome! I think the double was a good idea. A couple more ounces of fabric is well worth carrying when you consider the extra comfort...
Have you hung it up yet?
Thanks for the welcome guys. I haven't hung it up yet because I ordered it just a few minutes prior to creating this thread. Figured I could study up a bit on some tips/tricks before it gets here.
I was thinking about ordering the bug net from ENO to compliment the purchase. Again, thanks for the warm welcome.
I have slept in a double and it is COMFY! Let us know what we can do to help you get all the bugs ironed out. BTW, the bugnet for that hammock is OK, but if you have a sewing machine, there are perhaps lighter and better ways of keeping the bugs out and they are shared here on this site. Their bugnet does work well though. Welcome! Mule
Predictions are risky, especially when it comes to the future.
Welcome to HF, Eric. There are lots of folks here with a wealth of information that are always willing to help those of us not as familar with all the extra bells and whistles that go with hammocking!
Keep an eye out for some of the get togethers in this area. A great way to learn new tricks!
Welcome to HF, Eric.
You'll love your TL. It's a very comfortable hammock.

Thanks guys. Eventually I would like to get into making my own gear but until I buy a sewing machine, it will have to wait.
I opted instead for the Hammock bliss mosquito net from Dicks Sporting Goods. It was about $20 cheaper.
I am going to attempt to make my first piece of kit soon though. I'm thinking of a gear hammock to hang along side the treklight.
