    I'm now broke thanks Dutch

    Just received my order the other day from Dutch, $300 worth B-) Seems a lot but I ordered enough suspension systems for about 5 hammocks for my scout hammock classes I'm doing. Converting all the hammocks to adjustable webbing and dutch clips. Converted my sons Hennessy finally and also got a set of Whoopie Slings for demonstration. Also got 3 sets of dutch flyz and tarp clips plus some misc dyneema. Luckily my wife doesn't know lol

    Who cares about showers, gourmet food, using flush toilets. Just keep on walking and being away from it all.

    There are times that the only way you can do something is to do it alone.

    There is broke and miserable then there is broke and happy as a clam at high tide.

    I have not done business with the one and only Dutch (who I hear if you ain't Dutch, you ain't much), but I can tell from all who have that he is the kind of guy that will leave you smiling as you apply for that 2nd or 3rd job. Dutch has a spotless reputation and is one awesome dude!
    Happy Trails to one and all.
    Enjoy the outdoors wisely and elevate your perspective.

    Hey, charge for the classes, something like 2 dollars a head. Then you should make it back little by little. OR, at least make them make you some smores.

    (I'm now broke, thanks Dutch)

    Yes, I can see how this could happen. I resisted buying any of that fancy schmancy UL stuff for a long time. Just couldn't see any real advantage to it. But then...I happened to pick up a pair of 'tarpflyz' from a forum member. Rats...those things are so much lighter, smaller, and just plain work better than what I was using. Now I need to replace the carabiners with Dutch clips, the mitten hooks with those tiny little 'biners', and maybe if I can sell some other stuff I can afford to try those cinch buckles. And I thought my setup was complete

    Mine is never complete, always a work in progress if you ask me.
