I have all the wood laying around so I mite as well build one.

How did this work out? I have the Hennessy Explorer Ultralight with Hex tarp and am planning on building this stand.

Nice kit. Now I guess your younger one needs one too?

What's average cost on this one?

Thank you for the kind words.

The one I made was claimed by my youngest.

I have the materials to make mine as soon as I have a moment. Looking to lengthen the base and uprights so my Explorer Ultralight and hex will hopefully fit.

All in, I have about $120 (two kits) including the cost of a new long paddle bit so I can drill in one shot.

The first one works great for my sons hammock. I am about 3/4 the way done on the stand for my explorer ultralight. I decided to make this one with a longer frame and uprights as well. I am planning on using the wood nuts in the stand for quick disassembly.

If you are referring to the general build, see post #1. Otherwise, please reference (or quote post) the variant you are referring too. Thanks for the interest!
