Is it a single or double layer hammock? I dont see it listed on the website.
How did you bend one of the eye bolts open and then rebend it shut around the other two?
BB 1.7 double in camo.
Actually the double camo is 1.9/1.1
I ordered before you and still no shipping notice :(
ordered mine 5/4 and it shipped 6/3.
I bought aluminum arrows and cut the shaft to length, put rubber caps on the ends, put them in the bug net end sleeve and use the supplied shock cord to attach to my tarp ridgeline. Keeps the net...
Dont use paracord in your suspension. It stretches and it will probably break. Making loops is very easy, there are pictorals you can search for to guide you step by step, but buying them is easier...
The end channels of any hammock are designed to take the stress without excessive wear. As canoebie said, and many others, their hammocks have been in service for many years and do not show signs of...
I have the claytor JH and I use cinch buckles. I attached the buckles to the hammock with an amsteel continuous loop, and use 1inch tree straps to the tree. There is a claytor subforum here which may...
esteel,
What is the length between the two connection points for the hammock? It looks like your stand is about 8 feet in length???? I think I can make that work in my bedroom...

Thanks for the time and effort. This place is great.
Thanks Grizz.
So if I weighed an even 200 pounds, the force from hammock to wall bolt is 100 pounds(per side) and the force from wall bolt to ceiling bolt is 100 pounds(per side).
Note: The...
By both at the same time do you mean one continuous loop of suspension running from one end of the hammock to the other through all 4 bolts?
I know how to calculate the suspension forces if you're hanging from two vertical points alone, but what if you connect to two eye bolts in the ceiling and run the suspension down through two eye...
Head east out of Dallas and you're in Piney Woods country. It's gorgeous. Or just go anywhere in Arkansas to camp.
[QUOTE=Joe Cross;523200]I was going to make myself wait, but a little bird PM'd me and noted the supply may be limited so I better act fast if I wanted it. That's all the push I need. One Jarbridge...
I just sent a PM to you.

I like that its a nice simple backyard hammock that I got for $37 on sale. I don't backpack so I don't know what it weighs by itself. It has three pieces of fabric, one main piece and two narrow side...
I just bought a GT single. It came with that cord in the channel and the biners. My hammock fabric is 118 inches long. So the 10.5 must be with the biners. I replaced mine with whoopee slings so I...
If you have a phone with a large screen that can open pdf's, you can carry this protractor. The finger method is the easiest way but it's nice to have a backup.
Similarly, I use the hands of my...
Are you using 1 inch or 1.5 inch tree straps? I have an extra pair of 1 inch dutch clips you can have complimentary.
bump.
I'm curious about this too.
Did anyone take advantage of the discount and order from GT? It took me a while but I got through Friday afternoon but I haven't received a confirmation email and my credit card has not been charged...
I just got through.
Thank you. I was looking to get another hammock.
is that price per pair?
Received my hammock yesterday, it looks great. I couldn't lay in it yet because I only have one big tree in my back yard and I made a tripod with 10 foot bamboo poles for the other end but couldn't...
I slept on the ground over the weekend because my hammock hasn't arrived yet. I'm still sore and stiff and I had a pad and an extra folded blanket under my bag for cushion. I'm ready to elevate :)
I just ordered my first hammock - the camo Jungle Hammock. Can't wait to get it and get off the hard lumpy ground. Thanks everyone for all the info on this forum.
