    Sold: Hammocks and IX UQs

    My wife and I are upgrading our gear, and we're looking to move our existing equipment...

    We both have Grand Trunk Skeeter Beeter Pro hammocks, in excellent shape. They're only about 6 months old, and they've been used 3 or 4 times. The suspensions have been swapped out for whoopie slings, straps, and toggles.
    Price: $75 each, including shipping (CONUS), or $140 if you buy both.

    We also have two DIY Insultex (3-layers) underquilts. We made these ourselves, and are very proud of them. They have 1.1oz ripstop shells (inside and out). The outside is black, inside is blue, with shock-cord suspension. One is trimmed in orange grosgrain, the other in purple. Stuff sacks included.
    Price: $110 each, including shipping (CONUS), or $200 if you buy both.

    If you want all four items, call it $325 shipped (CONUS).

    Here is a picture of one of the underquilts. I don't believe I have any great pictures of the hammocks. For the other underquilt, imagine purple where there is orange.

    Any details on the UQs? Temp? Weight? Pack down size?

    Sorry, I just haven't had much experience with insultex.

    Thanks!

    I followed these instructions (loosely) for making them... http://gear-report.com/how-to-make-a...-camping-myog/

    Jeff's weight claim is about 16 oz. I haven't weighed ours, but they do have the inner shell, Jeff's did not. I would estimate around 20 oz, possibly less. They don't stuff well, folding/rolling works much better. The pictures in the link above are very accurate in terms of pack-down size for our quilts. As far as temp, Jeff reported using his down to 24 degrees (along with a fleece quilt). I never used ours that low. I don't think I would use these below 30, personally. But with a good sleeping bag or top quilt, I think the 30s would be plenty comfortable.

    I believe I may have answered at roughly the same time you were bumping.

    Another price drop...

    Grand Trunk Skeeter Beeter Pro hammocks (x 2): $55 each
    Keep in mind that these are lightly used, and come with upgraded suspensions (whoopie slings and tree straps) over buying one new.

    DIY Insultex Underquilts (x 2): $90 each

    Alright, we'll do one more price drop...

    $50 for the remaining Grand Trunk Skeeter Beeter Pro, which includes shipping within the CONUS.

    I'm removing the underquilts from the listing, as I've already lowered the price more than I really wanted to.
