    Welcome from Nashville! I lived in Memphis for six years, 78-83. Look forward to maybe seeing you at Neo's annual hangout at Meriwether Lewis National Monument at end of October.

    And DIY tips? PRACTICE makes perfect! LOL

    Welcome to HF good luck with the DIY hammocks and I'm sure other DIY projects will ensue
    Its better to be prepared for something that may not happen then to be unprepared for something that does happen.

    I grew up in Memphis then joined the Corps in 1975 and have wandered around the world ever since.
    Hammock camping is great. I made one in the field a long time ago out of a canvas shelter half and some rope and wasn't impressed. But now- the stuff around today is a whole lot better!
