Hello all, I thought I updated my progress here three weeks ago but it looks like I missed it. I had a MRI that has shown my tumors as responding to the chemotherapy. This was the first time since...
After about the toughest year I have ever been through I look forward to 2014. I found out this week my tumors are shrinking and have great optimism going forward. My Wife and family had a great...
Yoda,
Thank you for asking. I am doing fair. They found a few tumors after surgery follow up MRI.] the end of July. I had full brain radiation every day M-F for three weeks. That was successful...
I like minion. Dutch's MINION. Elf for the clean work and Minion for the dirty stuff. Actually this is finally the right stake that works best with a flyz attached, You can pound them in and not mess...
Welcome, you will like it here.
This looks cool, I think I want a couple of these. But they are a bit expensive. Bet we could make them.
When we take the dogs they sleep with us in our hammocks. I have two small dogs though. An 11 lb min pin, Titus and an 11 lb Chihuahua mutt, Bobo. They both love to sleep and am sure would sleep...
Here is a quick pic of our 1" camo webbing on a Dutch Biner. You can see that there is enough room, as seen in the video. The inside radius' (the ends) are hand sanded to protect your Amsteel loops...
Did you take notice of the Trout in Rock Run? I mean the Brooks not the Browns.
I think you choose wisely it was a great weekend to be out. Also thanks for keeping Baxter tethered and safe. I have found more than one lost dog while hiking (even one a couple years ago a the...
Never mind my questions, I was just excited to see somebody enjoying my favorite trail. I should have watched the video first, goofy me.
One of my most favorite trails. Did you take one night or two? and which way did you go clockwise or counter? We usually go counter and take two nights because the we love camping next to Rock Run on...
We messed around a good bit with the UCRs and did not like how they only pulled on the constricting bury from one side (not counting the triple prussic). They are way to easy to let you down, you can...
We are now back in stock of the 1/2" micro sized titanium d-rings. You remember, the ones you don't need but you know would look great on the edges of your tarp.
They are back in stock
Which quilts did you order?
Saw that. I was going to combine them for you and upgrade you to priority shipping going out tomorrow.
You are most welcome. We really try to get everything out as quick as possible. I hate sitting on orders for even over a day and if you need upgraded shipping we will do our best to work with you...
Yes the fixed eye on the Dutch Buckle suspension is for the hammock end. That leaves the adjustable end of the sling to go over the Dutch Buckle.
There are some newer Hennessey's out there that...
If anybody who has one of our Dnyaglide UCR ridgeline would like to write a review of it I would sure appreciate it. I am looking for some feedback on ease of use and the overall length. We make them...
Sorry, I really am slow about reading the HF threads. Between Emails and making about a million whoopee slings a day I run out of time.
I might as well state it here as well, you can use Whoopie...
The hike to 501 from the north is pretty nice.
I am in and I think I am the mystery guest so the cat is out of the bag. There may also be some Dutchware goodies with Dutch lost in Utah, Muhahaha (he is not really lost, but is in Utah). I will at...
We try to get orders shipped within a day. My local post office gets everything that is posted that day to the central hub by 9 pm or so. Since we print our own postage now with bar codes I have...
Saw docs yesterday. They took out the staples and stitches. Said the MRI looked good, like the got everything. They still are thinking of doing some radiation and chemo though. It makes sense because...
Hoot,
That would be pretty funny if we just coiled up some amsteel and included a splicing tool and instruction card. Well funny until somebody didn't get the joke. :).
It would work just fine as long as you understand that with each adjustment you need to unthread the webbing from the buckle. The whoopie slings, even custom made short ones would provide much easier...
The ideas and gear that is offered by Dutchwaregear.com all comes from the philosophy that our customers want lighter and easier gear. We went with the three options to help satisfy all. The cinch...
I can only humbly say thank you all for your positive thoughts and well wishes. I am doing much better. I do now have a full titanium forehead and both the neuro and ENT surgeons seem to agree that...
The Ti Dutch Clip was designed with the angled arms to keep webbing at the strong part of the clip. A line of amsteel would naturally slide to the back corner where the clip is strongest. The point...
You are most welcome. I know her birthday is not for a couple days yet but wish her a happy one from Dutchware. I hope the Flyz are what you were asking about, they are my favorite.
Would a flyz with a prussic loop be a soft stingerz?
When hanging your hammock you only need one disconnect point on each side of the hammock. The Whoopie Hook is that disconnect point along with being a built in water break. If you are using huggers...
The clip on tarp pull outs weigh just under 4 grams (that is the clip and the donut). The 10 or so feet of 3/32" shock cord weighs in at around 13 grams (1.3g/ft). for a total weight of 17 grams per...
I have not noticed any issue with cold. I guess if it gets to cold anything gets brittle. The last few batches we made with stronger hooks and have seen no issues.
When we were there for the Winter Hang in Feb I got verizon coverage at Grayson Highlands and 3G coverage but it was spotty..
Thats why I use them.
Yeah this is a learn as you go thing for all of us. I do not believe that we will ever have a perfect system. I have put this in a few threads and since you bring it up I will put it again here,...
We have gone around the tree and back again on this one. I am thinking about adding a 2 or 3 foot loop or dog bone addition that we would carry in pairs to be added to the spliced stingers or...
Great to hear, we do run into customs sometimes. They get curious as to why we are mailing Stingers and Flys plus a bunch of "Dutch" stuff that we mark as made in USA (which of course it is). Enjoy

He gets his choice of any Dutchware...
Overgrown choose the Dutch Buckle with Whoopie Slings and 10' tree straps. Another good choice in this extremely long and drawn out contest. :D
Thank you all for participating in this poll. Will go with making the stock loops a bit bigger to line up with the suggestions. As always if there is a desire for bigger or smaller then just let us...
You are most welcome but the credit goes to the world's greatest hiker.

Overgrown is the third winner. And since I just now realized that my original edit states we are giving away a suspension every Friday in February and that was on the first which was a Friday...
Jaxhiker has choosen Whoopie Hooks on Whoopie Slings with a set of 6' tree huggers as his prize. Good Choice Jaxhiker.
The third grand prize winner in the Dutchwaregear.com FREE Sweepstakes Extravaganza Giveaway is:
Funny story here, first number to come up in the random number generator was #228 . . . . . . . . ....
Too much is never enough. Sorry about the cool stuff, just remember, "if you ain't Dutch you ain't much". Plus the more you have the easier on the eyes it gets.:D
Yes it would work exactly the same, no issues at all doing that. I have spliced many hooks onto loops for custom orders.
So you are larks heading the fixed eye end only? Can you show me a picture sometime? The reason I asked is because there is always 6" at the end of the main bury in a whoopie sling because of the...
