View Full Version : New to Site and Hammocks.
Let me start by saying this is a "GREAT" site full of useful info. I have already learned so much and have not even received my hammock yet :). I am looking forward to trying out my new Claytor. That is if it ever gets here.
After years of sleeping on the ground I'm ready for better sleep. I am sure I will have many questions in the weeks/months/years to come. Thanks to all who take the time to share their experience and knowledge with those of us who are new to hammocks.

Welcome to the forum. You will never look back, and I know you will love your Claytor.:D
When did you order yours? I ordered mine on 3-11. They said 15 day shipping, that is a long time to wait for a new toy.
Thanks,
Chadd
It is worth the wait :D :D :D

I ordered two Claytors in February and just got them, thirty days later. Also, a month before that I ordered two no nets and I don't have them yet, over two months has passed. I have been conversing with Tom an he sent them again, but now it will be another two or three weeks.
I don't know why he doesn't have a shipping place from the States. He actually already does, but it is expensive to get one from there. His shipping needs to be improved.
I love those Claytor Jungle Hammocks though. Mule
I meant to say Hello and welcome to the forum, Mike. Hello and Welcome! Mule

Welcome to the forums. Happy hanging.
It came in the mail today. I have not had time to get it out and try it yet, but plan to before the end of the day. I took about 14 days for mine to get here.

Welcome mike_ff!
Whoohoo! Get out there and hang that Claytor up Chadd! Let us know how you like it once you wake up from your hammock induced little nap ... :)
Well NCPatrick I am looking forward to trying out my Hammock unfortunately I am still waiting on it to get here (18 days and counting). I am planning a 3 to 5 day trip in April hopefully it will be here by then.
Well I got it hung but didn't have time to mess with the tarp tonight. I took a little nap in it tonight after dark, I put my Big Agnes insulated mat in it and got my 40° bag out and I was a bit too warm. It is in the low 50's here tonight.
I need to find a easier way to hang it though, it took quite a while and I didn't even hang the tarp. Does anyone have an idiots guide with pictures showing the easiest way to get this thing hanging?
