    Hello from Buffalo, NY!

    Scored a complete ENO setup on the cheap. DoubleNest, Guardian Net, and ProFly... All for 90 Bucks! Made up some whoopie-slings and an adjustable structural ridgeline from 7/64 Amsteel. Have some Zing-It on the way to make some more line stuff (this splicing thing is instantly addicting) and will be hanging this weekend hopefully. Just wanted to say hello and thank the forums as I have been scouring them for the past few days as I set everything up.



    EDIT: I know it isn't the fanciest equipment, but I am happy to find a deal to get my feet wet. Once I know I like it, I'm more likely to pull out larger bills.

    The ENO set up will serve you well.

    Cross the road to EMS and get the Camp NANO 23 carabiners for $7 each. One of the smallest lightest climbing biners usable for hammock hanging.

    For a second there I was scared that you knew EMS was across the street from me. Then I remembered I told ya! Haha. Thanks for the tip!

    Welcome to HF from Georgia! Lots of great info on here for tricking out your ENO. Some call it a "gateway hammock" but it's a comfy hang.

    I agree with that. I have already lusted over some other setups, but for once I want to put some time into a hobby before going crazy on gear. It's gonna be tough....
