Yes, trees are the best.:)

My wife and I car camp many times throughout the year at state and county campgrounds here in the Midwest. 99% of the time there is a 3' wide poison ivy edging that...

Be patient my friend....spring will be here soon and you will see the ridge-less stand appear. And don't get so uptight about this whole thing...lighten up:)

but....but....but, it doesn't have a ridge pole.:D

You might want to just make a hammock chair. It's mentioned in this thread. Not sure if the instructions are here also.

Waiting for your video that shows it doesn't work:D

It will work in a free standing state also. One leg of each tripod needs to be inline with the hammock. Don't use your hammock as a swing:D

I have the aluminum poles. They make heavy tripods. They...

The female end of the pole is 2" O.D. The wall thickness at that point is 1/4"

The swivel antenna mast looks like it would work well.
The drawing of the u-channel is great, just what we want to...

That's a good idea. I'll have to see what the swivel part looks like on the other side.

My latest idea was to use a 2 part clevis pipe hangar. The u part with the 90 degree angle brackets. It has...

Got my poles yesterday. Excellent set-up and packaged very well.

Anyone have some clever ideas how to make a swivel anchor like the one shown in this link? Looking to make one for about $25.00.

I'm going to be getting 3 more sets in 3 weeks when funds are available. I got projects in the works:)(not for the Pole Stand) I won't buy from the guy in Illinois due to having to pay state sales...

Nice close-ups....thank you:)
