I'm pretty sure we've been emailing the last few days, lol. I'll get ahold of you via email.
Thanks guys!
I'm getting things hammered out with Jason. I tried to get in contact with another maker that has supposedly done the work before...but he has been really flakey. I think an HF member...
Hey all,
I've discovered something. Nobody makes a Kydex sheath for the Emerson CQC-T Tomahawk. The sheath that the thing comes with is CRAP. Hard to draw from, clunky when attached to anything,...
The main thing about moments notice is the idea that I might be a fore runner. Depending on where the event is, I may be sent in for initial assessment/to secure resources and a location for our...
Update,
:blush: I had the whoopies rigged wrong. Gonna go try them out and see if It works now...
The vendor told me that "5" bury is plenty of length and what it's supposed to be".
Is that right? I'm not sure based on my other reading, but I'm still green....
I'd rather not drop the name of the vendor, simply because I'm EXTREMELY happy with the rest of my purchase. I'll give them time to make it right before doing any Buyer Beware type stuff...
Thanks for the offer, but that's about 4 hours one way :eek:
I'm not so...handy...with "thread injectors" and the like just yet. Haven't spliced rope in better than 10 years. I might just pick up a new set or see if the seller will send a better made one. ...
Alright, I sort of combined all of the afore mentioned ideas and threw in a ridgeline. It is going to need tie outs to stop the wife from loosing it...
I also ran into a heck of a problem with the...
Just what I was looking for. Still haven't mastered the search function :rolleyes:
Hey All,
I snagged a Yukon bugnet hammock for my wife a few woots ago. Finally got the thing rigged out, and I cannot figure out how to use the channel loop pulls on the bugnet. With whoopies, the...
Depending on where the event is, we could be talking 10-15 minutes or less.
I might see how they pack loose in a compactor bag in my pack. That or just keep em compressed and **** the...
Greetings! Now, we officially need to organize a NE WI hang!!!
That's almost exactly what I'm running. XLC, 20* Burrow with 1 oz extra and 20* Incubator with 3oz extra. I've not taken it COLD yet, but the last outing got into the high 40's and I was cozy in a...
Thanks for the fast responses everyone!
Any particular Frogg toggs offering better than another?
Hey All,
I'm re-doing my gear for an upcoming trip and I need to cut some weight on my rain gear. Any big guys have a spare rain jacket that they could part with? XXL size? My current jacket is...
That's awesome! But I wouldn't try to bring that stand on a hike :eek:
I chose argon for my top quilt, and it's incredible how soft it is. Just awesome.
I planned an overnight for tonight a few weeks ago with no idea it was a holiday...I'll take it as a sign from God....
I am simply blown away by the customer service at Hammock Gear!
I ordered a full quilt set, top and under quilt from Hammock Gear less than a week ago and they arrived today!
At a glance, the...
So,
I've been trying to re-arrange my pack and I'm out of room on the interior. I simply need to figure out how to rig something to the outside...which is easy to do but I'm not sure which piece of...
That's crazy! What a blessing...now you need to try extra hard to appreciate it cause the wait didn't build up the suspense LOL.
I snagged the WBBB XLC for pretty much the same reason, and it's MIGHTY comfortable. I'm getting no pinch anywhere when I bed down.
I was in the same situation. Thankfully, it didn't rain much until I got the cord to tie out the tarp!
I've had a few get through my 1.7 dl, but only a few. I will probably treat mine before my next trip. I hate blood suckers of any kind!
Onto my new hangerisms...
Do ya think that a 20* Incubator with 2 oz of overfill could be successfully rigged for 4 season camping? I'm thinking of running it VERY loose in the summer with no...
I'll try to send some your way! It was a wild day...also finally got my lash-it in with a surprise bundle of shock cord (just ran out and was gonna order some later today)!
So, I came into some unexpected money today and spent part of it on quilts. 20* burrow and incubator HERE I COME! Also trying the new fabric on the burrow. This is gonna be awesome!
Any tips on...
Good eye! The thing's a dream. Most comfortable I've ever been.
How do you rig that? Zing-it between pullouts with shock cord going to the ground? Lengths?
That's what I was looking for! You guys are awesome. Thanks for answering my inane questions!
I'm thinking about using the poles for porch mode, but I might just shoot for finding some sticks in...
That answers that question...but generates another...lol.
I was planning on using snake skins as a stuff sack/quick deploy for the tarp. Is there any harm in this, and any issues with tangling if I...
Maybe this is a perpetually asked question, but please bear with me.
When rigging a Superfly, how and with what material (and how much) would you recommend rigging the side pulls? I'm thinking...
Be patient, it'll get there and it'll be worth it. I'm just going to be able to rig my Superfly for the first time this week. My order of lash-it got stolen by USPS gremlins and taken on a 9 day...
Hey all,
I do most of my work from home, and a great deal of it is phone calls and networking trying to build relationships with organizations and get a foot in the door to do preparedness trainings...
the 13th of last month, in the early evening LOL.
I appreciate it. I actually lost a great deal of weight last year (going from 330 to 250-260)...then I suffered a 4 month illness and was just shy of bedridden. I put a lot of weight back on. One...
It's finally arrived, along with my wife's woot hammock. That is one sweet rig. The woot rig came in a wrecked box...I'll post some pics later in another thread.
I'm having a similar problem with my WBBBXLC. I'm 290 and 6' ish. Going to have to try putting them straps up even farther.
Three little words can wash away all of the frustration and irritation of the LONG wait. No, not I love you...lol. OUT. FOR. DELIVERY.
Now if this rain would just stop...
Won't be until Monday or Tuesday I guess. It's no wonder that USPS is failing... the "tracking" page still reads that the expected deliver is the 5th. I guess a time traveler is going to be making...
Hoping today...USPS tracking still says "Expected Delivery by July 5th"...
Only got the shock cord in...lol. So my tensioners are made, and that's it :(
If not today, then Monday I guess.
I'm terribly interested as well. My plan is this:
1. Underquilt
2. Topquilt
3. Probably the same things for my wife
4. Cuben
5.......
6. Profit :shades:
It looks like the stars are aligning to bring in my hammock, shock cord, and lash-it all tomorrow. I'm gonna be a busy dude!!
I was thinking the same thing, but I'm not going to complain. As long as it gets here I'm a happy dude.
Shipping notice at 0200!!!
Thanks very much!
I just grabbed 100ft from Dutch. That dude has everything...
Just got a refund from Brandon...they are out of guyline and I had 100ft on my order. I'm hoping that means it's almost ready to ship.
Any recommendation for a source? How about Jacks R Better's...
Ill check that out! Thanks much!
