This would be a lot easier to repair than tearing the studs out! I racked my brain too until I remembered to ask my son. It took me longer to explain the problem than it took for him to come up with...
The eye bolts are about 78" from the floor which puts the bottom of the hammock at about 32" off the floor. The hanging distance is 10'6" between the eye bolts. I hung it that high because I put it...
Glad it helped! My son has one in his room as well and he loves it.
Btw, I didn't mean to imply that there are not better solutions for a SRL, but the OP asked if 550 would work. In my case it does, or at least it has worked well enough for several months that I...
I'm sure many of the "pros" here will disagree and say that you must use some kind of super line for this, but 550 works just fine for me. I use the same hammock and setup outdoors except I use...
About 4 years ago, I got shot in the face with a 12 ga. slug at point blank range. (long story)
200 some odd hours of surgery and 4 years later and I'm still kicking. The good news is that coming...
x2 on the heads up!
Just what I needed, more Amazon.... I wonder if they are going to honor my Prime membership there as well?
Just looked, they are going to honor Prime with no minimum order....
Thanks Les Rust. I just used 1/4" chain because I knew that the 'biners I had on there would fit through the links. The chain has a test far higher than is necessary for the job. You could just use a...
Thanks Guys! Glad you liked it. I think I'm going to do the same thing in the garage for when those East Texas thunderstorms hit and the lights (and a/c) go out. It takes about 10 minutes for a...
I have an old mobile home at the lake that I wanted to set up for hammocks since my son and I have become full time hangers. The problem is how to hang them without building stands that sat on the...

I understand, but at 95 bux for two nights usage, I could have stayed in a motel. The zipper stuck so badly on the third night (middle of the night "break") that I gave up and went back to the house....
I will say they have incredible shipping times. Overnight International without additional charges is as good as it gets.
However, I received two Frontlines on Thursday of last week and tried them...
Hi Patrick!
I have the same problem floating the Sabine River.
I haven't tried this yet, but I just saw it and it looks like it would work great on a float trip. I think I'll build a set to use...
Believe it or not, that sounds great to me! I have been camping for nearly 50 years and the biggest problem I have ever had is being too hot sleeping, even in snow a** deep to a giraffe!
There is...
@ Alan,
Sounds like a blast, depending on where it is.
I don't usually do regular campgrounds, but right now with the burn bans, that's the only place you can even cook! I live on Toledo Bend...
@mtbikernate,
I hear you on the middle of the summertime! It's too hot around here to go outside, much less camp. I have even switched to strictly night fishing in the summer. I'm planning a trip...
@Randy.
I may just take you up on that offer sometime!
I see you have a kayak in the surf in your avitar. My son and I got into kayak fishing about a year and a half ago, but we've only done...
@ spaceweasel,
The GT idea sounds like a plan to start with. I saw those on Amazon and they have good reviews. If nothing else, I could always hang them on the porch for that price!
Doesn't a...
Thanks for the welcomes!
I was wondering if something like the "sock" that ENO offers would work better than an attached net.
My son and I got into bushcraft about a year ago and I have been...
Hi y'all!
I haven't joined the world of hangers yet, but it will be soon. The one thing that is holding me back is a question of skeeter control. Here in this part of the world, the skeeters are...
