I made a video today of how my personal hammock suspension is put together for you ultralight hikers out there. Be advised I don't follow the "normal" safety recommendations.

I like this, I also have taken certain "liberties" with splicing with no bad results. Bottom line, what works, works.
Great vid rock im not dead
What is the cutting board that you are using? Where did you get that? My apologies if that information is in a different message, but I haven't had time to read all of the amazing stuff that is listed in this forum.

Very nicely done. Thanks
But, you know of course you're gonna die!
It's a craft mat. I don't know where my wife got it, but it sure is handy.
You can pick them up at Michael's or Hobby lobby. I have a cutting mat I think I picked up from Michael's in Athens.
Sgt, that knot you tied as your 'tensioning knot' looks much like a taut line hitch without the loop.

See, I knew it had a name.
Not sure I'm ready to try out your methods quite yet Sgt, but I appreciate the look at how you do things and your thoughts as to why.

Great vid SGT Rock, explains your suspension extremely well thanks for posting it.
I've never tried UCR's before but I have some spare dynaglide so I may give this a go, although I will be using my 1" straps as I don't have any mule tape to mess with yet!
