    Blame Iafte that v2 isn't done yet. He got me putting all my energy into the vintage hammock contest.
    Adam you should prototype a bridge before you attempt a a bridgeskin anyhow so you can work out the details and dimension that work for you. The size and shape of the hammock will be up to you anyhow. Besides a bridge is a quick and easy project.
    My plan is to start on this before X-mas and get it done the end of January. I would plan on another hammock for Mt Washington. However I will probably be there with V1 again. I have a trip to grand canyon that I have been modding and making gear for right now. V2 has been in my head and I believe all the details are worked out.

    I still have my wife's quilt, tarp and HH clone to make this winter. I guess I better stop spending all my time on HF and get to work.
    Peace Dutch

    oh c'mon Dutch. Your public awaits you. Put that vintage thing aside and vest yourself in these instructions. Lasting impact versus a chance at a fleeting moment of triumph. Not a sure thing that you'll win at all, you know. Madame Shadowmoss has been mighty quiet of late. Mighty mighty quiet. Claims to have been in Germany but check out the time-stamps on her postings...that's not GMT+1. Face it, when the ladies get into the sewing thing we guys don't stand a chance.

    Your public, Dutch, your public.

    Public Service Announcement: The OP posted an update called Bridgeskin II. Maybe I'm the only one, but I was waiting and waiting for an update on this and didn't realize the show went on without me!

    It is the people's bridgeskin. Does that make you the hammocking People's Champ? :P

    Saw a link to this in another thread today... Did V2.0 ever get built? Are there plans out there for this?

    Sorry for the thread revival Dutch.

    This thread goes all the way back to 2007 (can't believe it's been that long) and is still one of my favorites in all of HFdom.
    Trust nobody!
