I have a couple of tie down straps that I was thinking of using for my hammock. They have the spring loaded buckles (not the ratchet kind) and I was thinking about using those to connect my hammock. My idea would be to cut a section off leaving the buckle attached with about 2 feet of strap. Then I was going to take the remaining strap, sew a loop in one end so it could be looped around a tree. The loose end would be strapped into the buckle. I think the weight rating is around 400 lbs.
My plan is to try it out with a nice low hang for a while and see if it holds.
Has anyone used these before?
