yup increasing the hang angle def does help but gets my butt a little close to the ground. I may end up using longer 2x2's so I can change the hang angle.
yup oldgringo, that there is the true definition of a lurker.......
This is going to be my goto for a good night sleep instead of the "crappy" futon that I have at my cabin. :D

Ok, You can officially put me on the "Build List". I made some modifications to my original failed attempt and come up with something very workable and stable. I left the PVC Sleeve on just for...
I have been hangin as a scoutmaster for several years now. The hardest part with my troop was to get the boys to realize that my hammock was my "house" and to stay out of it. :)

Hey Pappy, very nice looking stand. Where did you get the fiberglass poles?
This forum is great, thanks to all. With the info that you guys have dropped in my lap I am sure that I will get something put together that will work perfectly for my needs. I will post some pics...

Do you know what the "footprint" of your tripod is? Also the...
Thanks alot for the ideas guys. I found a temporary solution before I read your posts. What i did is place a 4' piece of 1.5" schedule 40 PVC over the connection point in the middle of the top...

ditto on the figure 8. I also use this method for my pull up rope, made out of 550 cord. "pull up rope" = used to pull bow etc. up to my treestand.
Welcome to HF, since I have the HH DJ. I would like to see you get the WBBB since that would have been my next choice.
Yup my Deep Jungle does in fact have the double layer. The bubble pad that it comes with even had shock cord that attachs to the hammock tieouts. I am thinking of adding another pad with it to get a...
I am also in the learning stages of hangin. I was wanting to do exactly what you have done. I have not hung without the underquilt yet but from the sounds of it maybe I dont want to. What kind of...
Yup we enjoy the ATV's, this time however we were just to lazy to hike the 1/4 mile from the house to our "honey hole" on our 40 acres. Kinda have our own camp set up complete with outhouse,...
Yes the bubble pad is included in the package. It has eyelets and shockcord that attaches to the tieouts on the HHDJ. Stays in place very well. Still trying to figure out what to do about the...
I converted my HH Deep Jungle before it was ever used. Not looking back, plus they are so fun to make.
