    OX made hammock

    At a recent Burrell's Ford hang I had the pleasure of camping near to Orion X. I had forgotten my pot, so Sean was more than generous by sharing his GSI kettle with me.
    He had a really nice hammock set up that he had made and several folks were trying his hammock and discussing the lack of calf ridge in it. So I started thinking and before long I had asked him to build one for me. I did have several yards of material from diy gear supply on hand, and he agreed to make it using my material.
    This morning I went to the post office and sure enough, there it was, double layered, Knotty mods and all. This thing is beautiful, great workmanship through out. I had traded for just the hammock, so I used my last piece of zing it and made a ridge line, added a pair of cinch buckles and hung it up. Perfect. I now have an Enlightened equipment UQ installed, a UGQ top and UGQ down pillow in there and it feels fine. I will try this thing out tonight. Whoo Buddy for sure.

    Congratulations on the hammock. They looked mighty comfy. Looking forward to getting my custom 13' Ox Barn tarp in soon. Post some pics of your new rig if you get the chance. Sean makes some quality gear.
    Everyone ought to believe in something....I believe I'll go set up the hammock!

    I can't wait to see that big tarp in action, plenty of room for you and Buddy.
