I'm in, thanks for chance.
I'm in - thanks a lot (multi am or orange if my number hits!).
I'll take 20, orange, not engraved. Sorry, can't seem to update spreadsheet using my Ipad...can some one help out. Thanks for doing this.
I'll take two sets and 6 feet works!
If JP dog negotiation falls through, I'll take bug net and biners for the $20 difference.
To be consistent with forum protocols. I will take tent, pad, and stuff sacks. Thanks Tacky Hiker.
No to the tracer based on the "lights off in the closet flashlight test", and certainly not when compared to the nite-ize cord. 3mm sounds about right but was wondering if it's strong enuff for guy...
Been searching and googling with no luck....can anyone tell what kind of cord is this? Thanks in advance.85963
Bump - still looking for a used Noah 12, anyone?
Son is considering joining me with one of the woot Yukon hammocks. Looking for a well used but serviceable first tarp that won't cost him (or me) too much. Thinking of either a Kelty 12x12 or...
Great, thanks for the replies. As of right now I am traveling during the Fall Hang, though I am hoping it gets cancelled (the travel, not the hang!). But I hope to get to the park at least once this...
I saw the details on the Fall hang at Grayson and it made me think about a call I made to the folks there where a young lady suggested I could hammock camp but "not from the trees". Is the Fall hang...
PM sent - thanks
I'll take it
Purchased from Corncob - thanks. Hones
I've gone back and forth on this item and can't seem to pull the trigger ...was tempted by the 50% off code/sale a few weeks back but ended up passing. Figured maybe going for a used pack is the...
What's not to like? Beats a cube any day!
Great tip - my boy has been considering this or a while. Thanks to the coupon he pulled the trigger today.
Never sewed before, so this seems like a good starter project...is there specific types of thread commonly used for most projects? Do you have touse a special thread when working with Tyvek?
Peanuts, what kind of tape have you found works best on Tyvek? Also, not sure how to say this clearly, but sewing the seams between gear compartments is pretty defined, how did you do that part of...
Exactly this one...thanks a lot!
A while back I read a post that included step by step "how to" on tyvek stake and rope tote. Had severL compartments measured and sewn to fit specific items. May have been from a mailing bag. Did...
Payment sent for cosmic 20. Thanks!
If price on cosmic 20 bag is shipped (lower 48), I'll take it.
Hope so..sent payment on Sunday. First poncho tarp, looking forward to experimenting with the hanging options. Only have used the hex.
aaagh, that makes sense on both counts - starting out it seems i tend to make more of certain aspects rather than underestimate. Thanks
Trying to figure out how far to set shock cord type side tie outs on my HH explorer. Since tension is relaxed when loaded, can I go too far? So far have been overly cautious (maybe 25-30% stretch)...
Definitely, will likely be my first DIY effort and the pics and directions from Jeff are a great starting point. Thanks.
Definitely one of the appeals to HF - a nice balance of content control without governing good debate and allowance for sarcasm/humor.
Never considered beach hammocking - just assumed it would hot and crowded - but the private island thing is pretty sweet.
thanks for the responses...hadn't thought about spare clothing though do like the multipurpose option there. Sounds simple enough, but since this is going to be my first attempt at using a thread...
I came to the hammock game too late to purchase a Speer SPE, are there DIY step by step instructions for making a highly similar version? Has anyone made one with wings filled with something other...
Got mine from Dutchware - haven't messed with it but plan to add to my tarp guy lines.
Just a college nick name....we were way to busy "studying" to use full names (Mahoney)
Welcome from around the corner (or around the beltway) in VA.
I'll take the poncho tarp. Pm PayPal address and will send funds
I went with HEx and added a single line tarp ridgeline...has been idiot proof so far (good thing). Have not been out enough yet to make a call on the tarp pull outs, but I'm tempted.
Yup, placed my order as well....will be my first time using permethrin in any form...sounds like it will work well.
Funny you mention "Wild", someone at work recommended that to me just yesterday. You far enough in to make a recommendation?
Thanks for the reply FLRider - very helpful and gives me a couple options to look at and keep tweaking as I try and hit the sweet spot. Have not tried the tarp off the other side in particular - ...
This is exactly what I did...the HH Explorer with Mod 4 and the classic bottom entry retained. The two way zippers on both sides allow me to get on each side or open it at any point to reach for...
...well sorta as I have done the backyard thing a couple times. Last week I had planned a short overnight to Kepler's Overlook (GWNF) to test drive my Hennessy Explorer and to see how my pup would...
Nice...thanks...add me to the list
While I only have three nights in a hammock so far, I find that I am sleeping the same amount as I did in a tent...which is to say, I tend to fall asleep easily enough but also wake up more often...
great...my basement blows now...looks like you were living the dream already...and now its the dream with a hammock. Nice.
As I've jumped in to the hammocking habit over the past few months, some stuff has been pretty simple and some seeming more advanced. I sort of picked and chose what I cold ingest at my point on the...
Very cool - am headed to IKEA as I type, will have to check it out (may have o add Lowes to the schedule). Have plenty of trees in my yard but like the idea of setting up in the house while catching...
Are there any concerns in keeping my hammock in snakeskins between hikes (or eventually over the winter where I rarely if ever hit the trails)? Also, after placing the hammock in the skins, I have...
All the best to you Keith - can only imagine your ordeal. Good luck Dutch!
Thanks a lot, sign me up for a shot.
