If the sealant is water-based, it will dissolve in water...

Kind of find it hard to believe that anyone would make a water-based adhesive and call it a seam sealant.

So I finally got around to running some numbers and I think all of the poles you originally listed should be acceptable if you follow the same design as the NoGround poles (this is really dependent...

I can also try to make a better estimate tomorrow. Might be a fun engineering problem.

From what I've read, T9 is a stronger temper than T6. I hadn't been ab;e to include it in the materials list, though, since I couldn't find data about how strong it actually is.



My thoughts...

I'll try to dust off my engineering degree to give you a hand with this (and hopefully keep your butt off the ground). Take this advice with caution, as it does not replace a thorough analysis of...

That seam was sewn before the channel so it does not interfere with the cord. See this video by Redoleary for how to make it. At about 4:30, he describes that seam, but I actually did a roll hem down...

I don't have my original, but here's one I did yesterday. For simplicity, I spliced both ends. I also used the bead to hide the Brummell, which was solely based on the fact that the channel I sewed...

I actually just did this on my last hammock stuff sack, but I kept the cordlock on the spliced line. Just remember to place the cordlock and a bead on the cord before splicing (whoops).

It gave...

Man those spots look awesome! I will definitely be planning some trips to some of those parks soon. Now I just need to get working on that bug net...

It is frustrating that all the camping seems to be concentrated up north! Thanks for the info on the other places, though! I've been wanting to get out to the Ft Myers area for a while (not for work)...

Hi all,

I grew up camping in the northeast with Boy Scouts and our church. Did a little camping in Georgia in college, but haven't done much the last few years. I learned how to sew in middle...
