I can only suggest Amazon or Ebay. They might have purple hammocks that don’t cost too much.

I’ve tried Permethrin in one of our camping trips. It kept those bugs and mosquitoes away.
We just moved-in to San Diego, California. The family and I love going on camping trips. What I’d love is a good listing of campsites around San Diego preferably within a 2-hour drive. The 2nd item...
Sorry. Never tried dying any of my hammocks. I’d be cautious though. Dyes tend to rub off on clothes.
Good to know you’re enjoying the camping and the hammocks. How much did you have in mind for your Ridgerunner?
I guess hammocks get to serve as a common bond among us hammock camping aficionados. It’s good too that we get to learn from each other and pick up certain things, we wouldn’t have been able to if we...
Those old sewing machines are amazing! They’re there to outlive you! My mom’s long gone but her Singer is still there pitching, this time for my married sister who sews for her kids.
Hey, you’re really on the go with these hammocks ha? Sounds like you’re having a lot of fun! Good for you.
Make your own hammock? I’d let my older kids do it. I’d be happy if I could hang my hammock the right way ..!
You learn fast, you smart camper you!
I’m not much of a fix-it man when it comes to hanging hammocks. I hang it about 2 feet from the ground with whatever materials and tools I have at the moment. Then I get into it. If I don’t fall off,...
To be hanging out for 20 years, you really must love it. and why not? camping and hammocks are great fun!
It’s good to know you’re also sharing your experiences with hammocks and camping. Everybody in the forum gets to learn something from the sharing.
It’s usually from the FAQ’s that I get a lot of handy and practical information. I’m new to camping so whatever I pick-up actually helps. Thanks.
Welcome! Be a little patient. When the rains go you’ll have enough time to go camping and try your hammock. Meanwhile, if you’ve got a backyard or garden where you can put this up, it’ll give you a...
I use Silver. It’s my dog's name . I don’t really know why I use this. … for good luck, I guess.
Thanks. Among the summer quilts, there doesn’t seem to be too much of a difference in pricing.
Thanks a lot ! Those quick start-up tips are helpful.
I’ve taken note of this for the next time me and the boys go out camping. Sounds like it’s a great idea.
Some guys really have the touch for almost anything! A Diy camping hammock for $44 and 20 minutes of labor. Wow! My wife would give me a medal ala Olympic gold for just replacing a busted fuse in our...
I know. For me too, humidity while camping outdoors will take the fun out of it. I’d usually do it during the cooler season.
This was about 4-5 years ago, but we’ve hanged a couple of hammocks then at the Great Smokey Mountains. No problem. I don’t think there’d be any problem now.
Out in a camp, I try to keep the kitchen smell away from me so I install my hammock about 100 ft or so. from any kitchen stove or fire.
Not me. Hanging outdoors … I gotta have a mosquito net. Mosquitoes bug me!
If you’ve had your retriever for quite sometime, I’m sure he’d simply stay under or around your hammock for the night. If you’re not too sure then just tie him by the tree with a long leash, so he...
First, when you hung the hammock up, you’ve got to have it spread out a bit (not too tight). When you want to get off it. Get one foot over the side till it touches the ground. This gives you the...
Not to worry, Am sure that hammock will come in handy on your next backwoods camping.
