Well come on!

Summers out here are glorious; nice warm temps in the daytime, afternoon rain showers (starts between 4:00 - 4:30 you can just about set your watch to it), and nice cool nights.

I have room to hang at least 6 hammocks in my basement, so no worries about space indoors.

Thanks for the information, and that same invitation goes for any hangers that ever come up Indiana way.
The wind problem can likely be improved by a little bungee or a couple of strips of Omni tape. Mule

If wind is robbing heat it is the fault of poor site selection and our poor tarp selection or pitch.... The UQ's mission is to insulate... The tarp mission is to protect from wind and rain...

Hey Mule,

Coming around to the original question in the thread...Have you seen the Nest modification suggestion on the Jacks' site? I immediately thought of trying this for my girlfriend's new Blackbird. The solution is only for the "Nest" style of JRB quilts, but it looks like a good idea. In fact, I saw a couple great ideas on the revised JRB site...which I had not thought of previously.

The leg end mod you refer to will work for NS, HR, Shen, Stealth, ORM also... see the instructions on the site... Kit is free to owners of record.
