ok i sent you an email.

Speer hammock for someone 5' or less. Bought it from Ed Speer for my son and he used it but outgrew it. Still in like new condition. Body is a royal blue color and has velcro bug net, adjustable...

email sent to buy the No Sniveller quilt. :boggle: :D

yeah I'm 20 minutes away from there. Every year I am amazed at how many people are thereas I go by on the interstate. It looks huge but I have never been to the event.maybe I will have to go look at...

I'm in for one

could someone post a link for getting CC buckles. I thought someone did the other day but i cant find it now... thanks!

I'm hoping to attend but i wont know my work schedule til closer to the date

yeah I think it looks better with the legs too

pads are about the cheapest way to go but also the hardest to deal with in my opinion. I have a "no sniveller" quilt from the Jacks and it is awesome! I can use it as an under or top quilt in my...

yeah I'm still hanging in the dark ages just lashing the webbing around the tree and i still use tree huggers on my hennessy :eek: I keep wanting to try the ring buckles system but every time I open...

i say leave them in.

i don't remember how long i cut the nylon but i think it was around 10' total. Its plenty long for me and 60" wide but you shouldnt need more than 6" of material for the bend. I tied it loosely and...

i'll buy one if you order more

thats how I attached the webbing to my diy hammock, I got the idea from another thread a while back but I dont remember who first mentioned it. Anyway I can tell you that it is holding well- no...

I use 10' of 2 mm line with a homemade tensioner on the sides of my cat tarp. probably longer than i'll ever need but its not much extra weight.

I like my DIY hammock - made in USA :D

ditto...
I like it too :)

I thought it looked "The Count" from Sesame Street until i looked close and realized what it was :o

yeah I've had good service when I ordered from them too. :)

I like number 1 the best, red for me :D

How bout Pine Grove Furnace in PA, its close to the mid point of the AT and has a camping area for hanging and the trail goes right by there. Some of our hanging thru hikers may be in that area...

Yeah I have had very good results with that method. I use a wood burning tool that I had laying around and either a 4' level or a wooden yardstick. I havent been able to make good cuts with scissors...

my 60" homemade hammock felt that way too so after trying alot of different things I found that if i tie the foot end a little higher than the head end and keep my feet closer to the end rather than...

I'm with you Tim, looking forward to their reports. It would be cool to have a chart or link to their journals somewhere on this forum :cool:

HE -- I took some pics but you really cant see the lay of the webbing against the fabric so i didn't post them. best thing is to try it yourself its pretty simple to do with a piece of rope or...

I just made my first hammock this week and I was going to use zip ties on the ends but i went with Teblums suggestion of a double sheet bend instead. so far its holding good, havent spent the whole...

Here's another link on how to make stuff sacks. Pretty easy for me to make and it was one on my first sewing projects. i made mine bigger than what they show but the directions are still the same...

That's a great looking job you did! looks like it is really tight too and the grosgrain really shows off the cat edges. Very Nice! and how hard was it to mount the dish on top??

How can I tell treated DWR ripstop vs untreated? I know there was some earlier discussion on this but i couldnt find the thread. Thanks

yeah, maybe someday they'll tear down all the shelters and just have rows of posts to tie too...:D

Thanks for the advice I'll let you know how it turns out...

I have a HH EXP UL with both the standard asym tarp and the bigger HEX tarp. I want to use the hex tarp in a second set of snakeskins with a second ridgeline so i can be under the tarp without having...
