    What is your top rail now? Can't quite tell from the picture.

    That'd be three tripods for two hammocks. Top rail is just a black fencing top rail they had at home depot... can't wait to hang next weekend!

    Cool! Just didn't want olddog to be confused with 1.5 stands.

    We'll just call it 2 sets, I'm sure you will be building the 4th tripod when the snoring gets too bad.

    Try the alum poles for your ridgepole. 4ft each, x3 ( 12ft ) or x4 ( 16ft ).
    Look at Agfadoc's pics.

    https://www.hammockforums.net/forum/...ad.php?t=68683

    We have put together the stand : 3 tripods and 2 ridgepoles.
    But the rain kept us from trying it out while camping last week.
    Just hung a daytime ENO on one setup.
    The rains came and we set up a tarp. Worked good for that.

    So the pole isn't taking any weight, it's just to keep the stands apart (without flexing too much) as I understand it.

    Cheers guys

    Yup, I imagine that'll be the case soon enough... Cheers!

    Add me to the list.

    I finished mine a few weeks ago, but I didn't consider it a success until I figured out a good way to run my ridgeline. Once my wife gets here Warbonnet, I'll be making a second stand.

    What I'm working on now is how to create a soft shelf under each tripod. I'm thinking maybe drill a hole in each leg, then run cord through and tie off a figure 8 knot, so I have three loops on the inside of the tripod, from which I can clip a mesh, or cloth, triangle "shelf."
    Traveling from West to East, and from East to West.
