Just watched this video on youtube by Jimmy McSparron, who makes quite a few videos on his hammock techniques.

In this video he uses a pair of aluminum rappelling rings on a carabineer to quickly attach his stock harness to the tree straps. Does anyone use this? Surely with two carabineers and four rappelling rings there will be some weight gain to the standard system. I'm considering adding these to my girls' Scout hammocks to make it easy enough for them to set up and tension the hammock themselves.
Thoughts appreciated.
