When i side-sleep on my Mayan, there seems to be a hard few threads that go lengthwise from end to end, so my shoulder is uncomfortable, and the rest isn't always that much better. Leaning backwards...

Ah! So that's it. Thanx.

English please. :) Or maybe a picture? Not sure i want to try sewing it though, not unless i can do it with a keyboard and mouse. :P

Why can that not slip? Ultimately, the hammock and string are not attached, it just has it in a choke-hold. Or maybe i missed something.

Tried making a tablecloth hammock for a friend. Realized afterward that doing the whipping with a thick rope (the one i use for hanging) doesn't hold so well, and it can be pulled off with a bit of...

Is it that close to Halloween already? :)

I've been sleeping in my hammocks for a few nights now and starting to get used to them (as opposed to being a "new" thing). First, i'm enjoying them quite a bit. I'm less restless than i am in a...

It's working pretty well, other than that they need to be moved. One away from the wall, the other to give it more room.

The knot works nicely, and is really easy to adjust.

Well, i finally got my hammocks up, though, they're not perfect (yet).

First i wanted one of the guys from the apartment complex to help me, which he said he would on Sunday, he took my number and...

I went ahead and bought the hammocks. I guessed and got doubles. Let's see how it works out.

I dreamt about the usefulness of the Prusik knot. Two strings, the second having thew knot to slide along the first one to add length.

On another note, i ordered the cart. If gave me a coupon...

I just learned what a prusik know is, is for, and how to make one. Thanx. :)

But where does it help here? I mean if it attaches to the hook there's nowhere for it to go anyway. So, there must be...

Sure thing.



Thanx for the idea. Any sizes in particular i'm looking for?



What type of cord?

Not sure if anyone cares... :)

I decided two hammocks was best for my new apartment (next week), both because i want to try a Brazilian and a Mayan, and because i have a friend that stops by quite...

I'm hoping to become an FTH on the first. But, i still need to order my hammock(s)! :)

I'm 5' 4". In a Brazilian hammock, what width do i want?

I'm trying to make sense of all the options i see. Apart from color, width seems to be an important detail. But i don't know what i...

Thanx for the info. I appreciate it.

There are so many variations. Color, size, and eh, fringe benefits :P. IIUC, i would sleep diagonal in a Brazilian, right? But what size does that need to be? Sorry for the newbie questions. I just...

Do i want cotton? I read over and over that it is more comfortable, and if inside, that would be best.

Is that true?

:) You never know.

I want to purchase a hammock for my apartment and have been reading some here and on some hammock seller sites, and i think i want a Mayan or Brazilian hammock, but i'm just not getting enough...

Yeah, i hear ya. My path is to be above board with my projects, and garner support of others for it.

Anyway, i asked the manager when we did a walk-through. He said he didn't care what i did, so i...

Sounds interesting. first i need to hear back from the management to see if i can hang from the walls or i need a stand. Then we can tell what'll fit. :)

Just got it. The bedrooms are:

1) 13' 1" x 8' 11"
2) 11' 8" x 11'

I also asked them about putting in eye hooks to hang a hammock. She told me for pictures was allowed, but for more than that...

Thanx. I plan on getting the dimensions tomorrow from the complex.



I have a friend who might be interested in the project. My hands are better suited to a computer's keyboard the a hammer an...

Hmm.. I used a hammock hung from trees a long time ago, and all i remember is that it was amazing. Perhaps i should try it again.

But test out a few hammocks? Does that means buying a few and...

I don't know. I just know that i need to furnish the apartment, and i figured why bother with a bed when i can get a hammock. But, i'm a total newbie here, and would appreciate _any_ help.

So, i'm...

I want a hammock in my new apartment (which i get next month). Do i need a hammock stand? Which to i look for first, the hammock or the stand?

I was away from home for a bit, but now that i am back in the states, i rented an apartment (lease starts Sept 1st) and find myself, amongst other things, in need of a bed.

I used to think i...

I don't even know where to start! I ought to post something in the main forum.

first line: witner should be winter

Came back to town, renting a new place, and thought about checking out a hammock instead of a bed.

Looked online, couldn't believe there is a forum just about hammocks, and decided to ask for...
