    Lightbulb Video: Easy DIY Bridge UQ

    Here is the third part of the bridge hammock series. This video walks you through creating a 3/4 length 3 season quilt for the bridge hammock that we made in parts 1 & 2. I would like to apologize for the sub par camera work on this one... We have a 2 week old baby and we are prepping our home for sale Anyways, I hope you guys and gals enjoy and I hope this helps clear some things up on making a DIY bridge hammock underquilt.

    This video takes the mystery out of the construction of a quilt. Great job HD I plan on doing some summer quilts and will be using this.

    Hey hiking dad. First, congrats on the new edition to the family! Second, would the measurements for that quilt fit a ridge runner as well?

    It be cool to see a video if this thing in action! Also I agree, didn't quite get how the process of making a underquilt went before. You make it look real easy

    Plan was to go out and test this on my WBRR and the DIY, but with the snow storm we got I haven't had a chance. I'll check it out this weekend hopefully and reply back.

    First of all, glad it helped! Secondly, just like I said to Ejimo, I planned on getting some shots of it in action, but the snow storm put those plans on hold. Hopefully today or tomorrow I'll get a chance do hang. I'll take some pics and post back.

    Hey Hikingdad. Did you ever do/ post the video of attaching a bugnet? I am just wondering if I missed it since I am very interested.

    Not yet. The Down came in and I didn't want to leave it compressed, so I did this video first

    What was this UQ rated to then? I know you ended up adding some more down to it, but don't remember if you said what the rating was. Thanks.
