Some friends of mine built one of those in their backyard, hung a big ol' string hammock under it.
Did not account for the stresses placed on the uprights by weight in the hammock (my friends are not tiny people).
Whole structure is quite wobbly and unsafe now.
Too bad.
They should have had that nifty diagram (that I can't find on the forum now) giving angles and stress. I remember it had pretty colors ...
