I'm in. Thanks for doing this.
I found a Viking Husqvarna 425 earlier this year at a storage locker sale for $75. I'd heartily recommend it. It'll do WAY more than I'm capable of sewing. From what I've seen over this year,...
My book arrived today from the publisher, and I have had a chance to read and scan through it. I really like the drawings and the QR codes to simplify looking information up. Great job on the book....
My Bad, I was just seeing the FABRIC in the top left and didn't realize it was a subforum link.
Back to more reading. Sorry for the intrusion.
ADMIN: Feel free to nuke this thread.
The DIY sub-forum link doesn't appear to be working. When I click on it, it connects to FABRICS even though the php?f=85 and fabrics is =83.
I couldn't find a link to contact an Admin outside of...
Tonight I scored a pair of near new black ratchet straps at the local thrift store. I made a pair of tree straps and put them in my hammock chair bag. The total weight is now only 8.8 oz (or 5 oz...
Below are a few photos of my completed camo (stealth for me! ;) )Gear Hammock & Camp Chair. I ended up using regular Amsteel whoopee slings I made as that's what I had on hand. In the end that you...
Thanks for providing the drawing. It makes perfect sense. I wish I had it before I sewed mine up. You might consider editing that into the video and or your first post in this thread.
Duane, could you describe the path the whoopee sling and the shock cord goes through the Gear Hammock?
Thanks for the great videos. My Gear Hammock is sewed up and waiting for the cords.
Yes the discount code still works.
I finished my underquilt using the plans in this thread. I used 3 layers of Insultex. It was my first thread injector project (not counting hemming up a couple pairs of pants) using my Viking...
My UQ materials arrived today. Time to start sewing!
Welcome from another WA hanger.
The replacement stock is due in this week! I'm getting eager to start doing some serious thread injecting.
Thanks, I already posed that question, and waiting for the response.
Does anyone have any sources for the Insultex other than those listed at the beginning of this thread? DIY Gear Supply is out and the other source doesn't show it on their website.
I've done the...
On a TV program called Dual Survival, they demonstrated how to achieve a heated sleeping area.
In their segment, they were camped under a rock or set of tree roots. Cody put up a space blanket...
A picture from my deck yesterday in Seattle. This snow is really early and the cold (24f at the moment) is very unusual.

I'm new to hammock camping. I'm a veteran tent camper and have motorcycle camped for the past 9 years. Recently I acquired a HH Ultra lite after studying hammocks for many months; and I am...
