    Greetings from Kansas

    Hello everyone,

    Im a new hanger from the south part of Kansas City. Im really excited to be learning more about hammocks and hammock camping. My kids have become as addicted as I have so I think I have a few more hammocks to make.

    I studied the forums for a long time as well as watched all of the great videos on youtube and the great websites. Im a budget DIY guy and have so far completed a couple of hammocks. I purchased two table cloths from the Table Cloth Factory from reading this forum as well as some Amsteel Blue and got some poly straps I had laying around from haulling stuff. So far the testing has gone well with the exception that I hung one too tight and had a rip just below the suspension wrap. I shortened it up and now have my first kids hammock. I have also made two "painters drop cloth tarps" I saw in a couple of videos. I have been really impressed with everything so far.

    I am looking forward to getting some good time in the woods this summer with my new gear and hopefully meeting some new friends, sounds like there are quite a few hangers in this area.
