    Ground dweller looking to go up in the world.

    Hi all,

    Izzy from Bristol, England here. Many years of making do on the ground have led me to this forum and I hope to get some valuable info from more experienced hammock users such as your good selves. I am looking at hammocking from a bushcrafting point of veiw and I'm not averse to making some of my own kit.

    Best regards Izzy.

    welcome to the madness, you certainly have found the right place for lots of information......the DIY section has tons of info on making your own gear.....you've got lots of reading to do
