Here it is with a Tadpole useing a hiking pole at the strut end and it works really well.
The rest of my day is booked...

I like the hiking pole mount for the tarp!

In for 2 - I can't resist even though I already have 2

Great pics of a one-tree hang. The tarp set-up looks good too. Those trekking poles are huge!
@thenate1
So now you have one in each of the 4 available colors! Many thanks for your repeat custom!
For anyone else interested in grabbing one at the low group-buy price, the Handy Hammock HF-group-buy-page will be live and taking orders until May 10th 2013 at midnight EST.
Once again, many thanks to everyone that took park and my special thanks again to cv66seabear for negotiating/initiating the Group Buy. The sales achieved should enable us to accelerate the development of the canopy add-on and the full "hanging-tent" version that we have on the drawing board.

The poles are the Mountainsmith Trekker FX Monopod.

What is the distance between the furthest staked points? End to end, where it would be greater with a longer hammock, but for reference, with the included Handy Hammock?
"I wonder if anyone else has an ear so tuned and sharpened as I have, to detect the music, not of the spheres, but of earth, subtleties of major and minor chord that the wind strikes upon the tree branches. Have you ever heard the earth breathe... ?"

The stand requires a minimum space to set up, just over 15 ft/4.6 m (64 × 182 in | 163 × 462 cm)

Hey there, I just stumbled across this group buy...
Hopefully I just scraped in, it is the 10th???
PM/email sent...
Mine is here! Nice turn around time from UK considering it is coming to metro DC area.
Now I hope to get home tonight in time to play with it
Actually managed to squeeze in setting it up today. I had to read the directions and watch the video on You Tube but I did manage to get it set up. My yard is a PITA because of all the irrigation and rocks but finally found a spot where I could put the stakes in the ground.
Below is a picture of my nephew chillaxin'. In fact he took about a 30 minute nap in it. I also manage to get at least a few minutes in it but will get more time once I get my HH set up on it.
