Hi,
I'm a newbie and have just had a weekend in my first DIY, based on headchange4u's hennesey clone. Thanks headchange4u: that's an awesome thread!
I had just finished it when I looked at the forums and found the article on making a hammock with a footbox. Doh! That looks awesome too, and who knows how many other great ideas are out there?
What I wanted to ask is what people think is the current state of play in terms of the gathered end hammock that gives the flattest, most comfy lay?
I gather that there are various patent issues for manufacturers meaning that it is hard for any manufacturer to be able to incorporate all of the best innovations into a single hammock, but as DIYers, we can do what we like, right?
So would the dream hammock have a footbox, an adjustable foot support, or an elasticated foot box?
Would it have a shoulder box too?
Would it have a shelf?
I'd like this thread help me, and anybody else looking in, to have a blueprint to design the best hammock that we can.
Thanks in advance
Chris
