    Lightbulb Dual Survival DIY Bamboo Hammock

    Very cool idea from Dave Canterbury of Dual Survival TV series. Ima try this sometime since i can find bamboos almost everywhere here. Great for those like me who doesn't know how to thread inject. Now all I need to bring is a poncho for my tarp and some rope because i dont trust vines for suspension.

    Bear Grills did this a few years ago on his show. It is a very cool idea but man it looks like a lot of work.

    I saw it too. Pretty cool idea. There's a dedicated hammocker if I've ever seen one.

    haha....in my case it'll be a lot easier than tryin to learn how to thread inject which will require me way more work.

    This is true, but talk about getting bites through the material. In the gaps the mosquito's would have a feast.
