    shopping list

    I just got to my mother's home, and found my GT single hammock that I had bought for her in the attic (the pink one!). All the hanging gear has disappeared. My small town has a military type store, and I figure that might be the best place to buy basic hanging gear. I want to set it up with a ridgeline, and webbing and a simple tarp. I tried using the search engine, but couldn't find a simple list to buy. I have no internet access, and the videos won't work here at the library. I am just trying to cut and paste. If anybody is reading this, and has a fast link to a previous post that would work, post it, or send me a PM/email pronto. I am sure tempted by that Wallie World down bag, but what would I use for an UQ on the fast and dirty?
    Thanks to everyone on this forum.

    Wally World CCF pad, or Ponch Liner Under Quilt (PLUQ).

    Find the first in the camping section, and the second from Army Surplus or the like. DIY section has a sticky on the no sew PLUQ.

    Readystrap.com will send you webbing or premade straps as fast as lightening strikes. Or Harbor Freight ratchet straps can work with a small amount of fabrication.

    The WW down bags seem to work well enough, and you could just as well fabricate an UQ out of one and convert a second into a TQ or use it as is.
