    Love the Nano Buginator!

    +1 on the amazing Nano Buginator. I can't believe how much fabric there is for such a light weight. It's half the weight of my ENO bugnet (and that's a great weight savings for the small difference in price.

    My only question is whether there is a way to spread the net on the inside to open it up a bit more. I don't like the idea of a pole, I was thinking along the lines of one of those bendy tiedown thingshttp://dutchwaregear.com/gear-ties.html or a couple in a triangle shape hung from the RL.

    Thoughts?

    Just curious - why do you want to open it up more? I have a NanoBuginator and it doesn't lay in my face (I have a ridgeline) and I have plenty of room.

    You can use tarp pull out on the outside of your net. I use one on mine to pull it away from my face. I have a ridgeline, too, but the net tends to droop inward some.

    The OP may be a little claustrophobic. Being enclosed in the hammock can sometimes seem like the walls of the netting are too close.

    There is good room in the buginator. But there's lots of fabric to play with so it just seemed like there should be a way to, er, push the envelope.

    Side question: Do you notice a difference with how well it seals up underneath you with and without an UQ?

    I never cinch it nor seal it. Spray with permethrin and nothing comes in.
