Commercial turtledog stand? Who makes it?
I looked around but ..
Its only been ten years since this thread had been started and Im only now getting around to building these? Ha! Interesting concept that has sure taken off! I built two now in week. One from...
Im about to get started on making a series of these stands for different purposes. I found a few features that like and will make my first one with wooden 2x2s and a gate hinge.
What I noticed in...
I looked quite a bit for reviews on this and was disappointed in the lack of them. I fully understand the comments by all contributors here but this doesnt fall under the heading of serious camping...
See my post about the 16 hammock by ticket to the moon. I just ordered one. Free shipping.
I just ordered this 16 ‘ hammock from ticket to the moon in Indonesia. About $173 USD with free shipping. The clock ticks! I’ll be giving this a review when I get it. Stay tuned.
Interesting idea! But those colors.....
Nope. Hes too busy to do this. Maybe another manufacturer?
16 2-person honeymoon hammock by ticket to the moon
Does anyone know about this or have it?
It would be nice if I can find someone here in the USA to make this rather than try and get this from...
that was a good one. I also found dutch's channel ....

this would be interesting for later ..... if this idea takes off.
Im interested in the wide model hammock. Does all the add on parts fit that as well as the standard width? I want to see videos on the two person hang options.
I like the Dutch suggestions and will look into that. I started with an eno and it was junk, tore and won’t get another, especially since I use my blackbird every day for years now. Gonna stay...
I just found the need for a two person hammock. I never really paid much attention to this subject in the past. Oops. Im thinking a symmetric single layer for mostly lounging in, napping in and...
I've had a blackbird since it was first introduced. Originally I got the "standard" model but right after that discovered the one with the right side zipper and immediately got that and have been a...
I shared what I found, there may be more? but it's all i found ....... it's up to you now! first post? welcome to the club.
deadman anchor system. It not a what but a how. dig a hole deep enough, place a 2x2 with a loop of rope around the middle down in the bottom and fill it back up. dump some water on it to really...
Anyone from the Rio Grande Valley heading up to the hang? My car isn't quite up to the task right now.
I've been having a fruitless search for a 9.5' hex tarp, but there's plenty of 10 footers, so I think I'll adjust my stand so that it fits a 10' tarp and then I'll use some amsteel endless loops to...
I have more videos showing this stand on my youtube channel, spidennis. Note, this is not a professional channel, just a collection of my stuff. I am looking forward to making a descriptive video...

Here I take down, fold it up for storage. Id say that is the compactness and quickness that I was shooting for.
The reason for the hitch mounted stand is for a fast reliable setup with no fussing around, and yes I want it mostly vehicle mounted, just in case I have to move. Conditions can change, situations...

Ok, it looks like crap but it does allow me to model and test this. Think awning for a travel trailer. It’s crude but works. Presently I have a ridgeline for the...

Well it looks like crap but seems to be working, as a mock-up anyway. The trailer awning idea seems the direction the process is taking me but I can see it taking much more time to set up...
Certainly the tarp on all the other systems had been completely overlooked. Last night I had a successful overnight backyard hang. Yes, I can get my Jeep into the backyard, Im a corner lot. Yes my...
I'm looking for a 9.5' long tarp for my new hammock stand, got a thread going on about it in DIY section, vehicle mounted hitch hammock stand. My three present tarps are too long! I did find an old...

I found this old ez-up pop up tent side, its got perfect dimensions. It will take a bit of tweaking to get it right. Id like to have no attachments to the ground at all but completely...

So far so good! I used metal bed frames for the hammock stand and 10 bucks of stainless steel hardware to put it together. A drill and a cutting wheel on the angle...
I just don't get the "save to my maps" anywhere .....

so this guy has something similar but he is in no way an experienced hammock camper!
Once I get my welding skills underway I'm sure I'll have more ideas happening but...

I had to offset the bed frames so that they'd not hit each other when I fold them down. some...

Its about to be nice hammock camping weather here on south padre island Texas and I want to do a little car camping on the beach with my blackbird. I have a motorcycle carrier that fits into my...
I need more! for the carry handles for my canoe caskets .....

I just got gifted to me a mosquito hammock that uses ropes ......
I'd like to convert this to a real strap system. suggestions?
This time of year would be really nice! but it's at least 4 hours from me ….. south padre island …… only got palm trees here, and a few at that!
I flew in C-130s used to hang my hammock across the back ramp no jump seats for me!
great idea!
oops! I put this thread in the wrong place ….. moderators can you move this to the general area?
here's my idea after a little bit of thought .
7 sets to start out with gives me a dozen hammock stations.
then with another 6 trees . and another 6 .
they grow fast, within 3-4 years...
this is part of the area I want to do this at, but it's mostly to the left in the grasses.

here are my aussi pines . the big one sprouted some in the perfect place for cover but the latest batch are in the wrong spot altogether! and must go . and now I got just the place for them! ...
now the location for the new hammock playground and hideout. Not sure why google earth put that red x in the image.
96541This is the location of the original existing stand of aussi pines that inspired me into this project.

96536Years ago I saw this area, a bunch a aussi pines out on the bayside here on south padre island.
I thought it would be really cool to do this one day .
Now I got all the pieces!
a friend...
as long as it's not raining like it is right now at south padre island! yuck! drizzle and rain going on a second day straight.
btw, I've been using my hammock quite a bit lately ….. next to my...
update: went back to Outdoor Bunker on Amazon and ordered black after checking out that color some more. It should match just fine, enough anyway, and it's made in the good ol' USA! Should have it...
If it's a bother to you go ahead and close it if it'll make you happy. :confused:
