    Greetings from western NC!

    Hey all! I took my hammock out overnight for the first time this spring, and man, I'm hooked. Don't think I'll ever go camping with a tent ever again if I can help it. Anyways, after lurking these forums awhile and seeing all the awesome custom gear some of you guys have come up with, I'm really feelin' the urge to make some of my own. So I'm off to the DIY forums for some guidance/tips!

    I recommend the John Rock Hang to meet some of the usual suspects and to learn what some of these old timers are doing.

    Thanks for the warm welcome guys! And for letting me know about the John Rock hang, it would be awesome to head down to pisgah and hang for a couple days if I could swing it...
