Hi all; First post in here I guess. Long story, but for now I just need a car camping hammock that's quite strong; Minimum costs within reason, and weight is a "not care" as we engineering types put it. I have been thinking of making my own, weaving it out of paracord as I am quite good with knots, and my sewing skills suck (to way understate things :P)
Was going to say that if a tablecloth hammock is better, though, I guess I can get using the sewing machine. Haven't done lots of hanging since the 80s, before the group of us knew what underquilts were etc., things have definitely improved.
Looking at Caveman's "DIY Tablecloth Hammock (the way I do it)" and Knotty's mods, though, no sewing needed and pretty fast? Hmmm, that might be a good answer... I can deal with the zingit concept, better than ropes that existed back then. And looks inexpensive all in all, my budget definitely bites. So I'm thinking of trying that. Have to see what's done for suspension, lots to learn, but then there always is
Is there a good post on "How it all ties together" for those coming back into this? Haven't caught it yet, but still reading. Thanks!
