    At the Gallows and I'm Glad

    i'm new to Hammocking. i bought 2 Grandtrunk hammocks for $18(a piece) on Amozon.com. Since then I've found a new addiction...Homemade Gear! For example: I now NEED 200ft of Amsteel 7/64,3 sets of Dutch Clips(Glad they're on JRB now)Lots of ripstop,and silnylon. It is fun to say WHOOPIE SLING!!!!!!!!!
