cool project and nicely done .. Nothing finer then floating in the air within a contraption conceived and built by yourself ... If man only had wings

Nice looking.
This needs a video to show the setup and someone actually lounging in it.
Thanks Black Wolf! Yea, there's always a little more happiness in the hang when you're suspended from your own invention...Originally Posted by Black Wolf
Thanks Gqgeek! The setup is just like a hammock. I used whoopies in the ends, tree straps with toggles on the trees. Whoopie over the knot, not the toggle...over the knot not the toggle...over the knot not the toggle... Right Shug?
As far as a video...I'm not trying to sell anything. My wife all ready thinks I'm nuts. Not sure I want to feed that fire by asking her to video me putting my backside into a chair. What is it you want to see?
Tex
Some people have asked what this thing looks like laid out without straps and whoopies. So hopefully this helps them:

Send me a PM and I will drive to Dallas and run your camera.... Your pictures prove that great things are made in Texas.
Ha! Thanks Hikehunter! I actually live north of Dallas too.
I'll see about setting up in my backyard with my turtle dog stand. I should be able to prop my phone up and shoot a 2-3 minute video showing the chair in action. Heck tomorrow supposed to be 80 degrees. Nice day for a hang, right?

Excellent job, if you decide to sell them I'll take one.
That's probably the ultimate compliment... Thanks rpater!
