    I have made a three part video series for the creator on how to build your own. The first video is pretty basic info on how to splice, the second video is going to be on making the UCRs, and the third video will be on the sewing required. The first video is already finished and reviewed, so here it is for those interested.

    Warning: for you guys that have done a lot of splicing this is pretty basic stuff.

    There is no limit to HF creativity.

    Looks comfy but I've had sailboats with less rigging. LOL

    Agree with others - it does seem like a fair amount of planning/work that go into it. But, if I were around camp for a while, it seems like a lot of fun. And fairly robust. And the weight is right... hmmm... I may have to put one together.

    Thanks for sharing!

    I have recently become a member- my question is how do you open the videos to view them? Often there is just a gray area with a puzzle piece in the center. I tap it and nothing happens- helphelp
