I'm converting people to hammocks faster than I can make them. So far that's kept my collection to 4, I've only let go of ones I've made because I know the next one will be slightly tweaked and better.
I'll start getting nervous when you get within...say....20 hammocks of me. I've still got a little time if you're on #7.Originally Posted by opie
The mistake you're making is the part about selling them. Either commit, or don't bother stepping-up.
Trust nobody!
I'd get an ENO or Traveller style hammock for winter or lounging use. Then have a separate bug net on hand for when you loan it to someone to come with you on a summer trip.

IMPOSSIBLE JUST TAKES LONGER
who wears underwear?How many pairs of underwear do you own? Do you refer to them as "extras", simply because you're not wearing all of them as we speak?
I thought not.
and I must confess, I got two hammocks and that's enough right now, and I'll keep telling myself that .... got to save up for other adventuring gear first.
I guess! LOL! With me LOTS of things "happen"! They 'happen' to show-up in my truck; they 'happen' to need me to go test them out; they 'happen' to drain all my credit cards!Hammocks happen!

If I include the Hammocks for Haiti project, I'm real close to 100 hammocks. And I still want more.
In my personal collection:
One I bought from the store as a newbie, two were given to me as gifts, and six diy hammocks. Is that wrong? I don't think so.
oops seven, I forgot the purple hammock I made my daughter. And the hammock chair, that counts, doesn't it?
Ambulo tua ambulo.
As with most things good, why does need come into it? Want is enough!
I believe that it is impossible to have to many hammocks! I keep one in each of my vehicles. Ya just never know where you will be when a opportunity to hang will present itself. My early scout training taught me a life long lesson. "Always be prepared" Lordy! I am well prepared in the area of hammocks and related gear!
How does the ENO Double Nest compare in comfort to the WBBB? I just feel like it couldn't get much (if any) better than a BB so why bother with other stuff? I know I wouldn't need the bug net during winter months and if the ENO is more comfy, I will definitely put the BB on the back burner after the bugs go to bed for a few months.
