I have made a portable solution with two segmented aluminium poles and webbing. I think warbonnetguy has something comparable. Very portable and versatile but not exactly lightweight. For picture and...

I'd like to add a simple drawing, what can be done with those poles. They are quite versatile.

The picture shows my system of aluminum poles and webbing. I wanted to do something close to this, but then stumbled upon a post from warbonnetguy and made almost the same stand. At least I think so....

Yes, yes, Yes! Thank you for implementing this.

Thanks for this one, lowclass!

For the NX-250 or any other hammock (except dedicated, like the vertex. 'only' a $110 more) I would say it's not a good idea, but can work in emergency situations. You should lie in opposite...

Thanks for sharing your experience :-) I think I'll go the same way. Soon. I already have an Iphone if that qualifies.

I have a NX-250 with z-liner, but I am not too experienced with it. I bought it a few weeks ago and we had really cold conditions here since, so I had no overnight hang in this hammock so far. But I...

This seems like the best advise given in this thread so far. I am not experienced with bears (I had only sightings), but this matches the instructions I have been given on my trip to british...

Yes, captain. Already in the mail, sir!

Thanks for the replies! Maybe I wasn't precise enough, but I'm only searching for skins for my tarp. After investigating amazon.com a little I think you went with the Hennessy Snakeskins #4. They...

I never thought about this until reading this thread. I wouldn't spent a thought on it, because it would change nothing. Let's see if it's still there when I return.

On the other hand on all my...

Hi Captain, where did you get them? Do they match quality and color?

nah, I don't think it's cool. Making a mystery of how to DIY a hammock? Using climbing gear (stretchy)? Make a video of attaching a webbing to a tree? Maybe the idea of sealing the knots with shrink...

Always depends on circumstances. Sounds more like a 'alone on an island. what do you bring with you?' question. In that case - see pic.

Right on time. I was thinking of something way more difficult for the same purpose. Thanks.

I know it's only personal attitude but I feel MUCH safer in a hammock than in a tent:

1. Elevation. No animal or person will stumble over my tent and hit or kick me by accident.

2. Overview....

This is the idea I had.

Sorry for continously bad pics.

This sounds like an interesting idea.
Do you no how to do this / with what kind of spreader bar?

I think he'd prefer a mild salsa, containing no or only little capsaicin. :)

I thought I'd share my little conversion project with you. I know it had been done a thousand times already, but the way I did it is perhaps the easiest way.

If you have the right tool....

This is my first 'serious' hammock.

Previously I owned a so called 'traveller hammock' and one from a el-cheapo military outlet store. At the moment I have a DD Frontline here, which I will give...

*If I had a hammock, I hammocked in the morning...*

Finally I picked up my hammock (NX-250, Vertex Tarp & Z-Liner) from the customs in germany. I had to pay 19% VAT and 15% customs duty! :scared: ...

Hi,

I'm very new to this great forum, but Tapatalk would give me the comfort of browsing it in my hammock!

To use Shug's words: Whoooooo Buddieeee!

That's a warm welcome here! Thank you all! Hope it will be as warm in my hammock!

I read a lot about winter hangs, haven't really considered it yet...

Hi everybody,

after reading a lot in this forum and especially enjoying the trip reports I pulled the plug and ordered a NX-250 yesterday.

I wouldn't call myself experienced but I have been...
