One things to think about when choosing a compression bag size, is not necessarily whether it'll fit all your Gear but how well it fits in your backpack.I recommend finding one about the same...
It's not as hard as you would think as long as it's down, you just squeeze the quilts to get the air out as you work the sleeves over them. But it does take a little work, that's the main reason I...
I've been using a stick as my pole mod, resting right on top of my warbonnet tarp for over a year with no leaks or any kind of abrasion damage. I did seem seal the inside of the ridge seem with...
It was really nice, wish I didn't have to come back. But something about leaving the old lady alone with all 3 kids for any length of time gets me in the doghouse ;<)166588166589166590

I found a cheap compression socks that was about the same diameter as inside of my backpack, this allows me to compress it only as much as I need to carry my load. If I'm just...
It really does help speed up set up and take down time. I used a diy version for a while but have since moved to just using a small piece of shock cord wrapped around the middle to hold everything...
Well got the quilt in the mail today, the craftsmanship is very nice. I'm excited to try it out in some colder weather this winter, it was a 100f at my place today with Lows tonight in the 60s....
I had a polel mod for a while but now I just pick a stick or Branch off the tree that's the right length, works just as well and I don't have to carry the polls. never had a problem with any of it...
Yeah, I build houses for a living and I guarantee you if I was over a month late on my projected finish time for a project, my client would not be very happy with me. With that said they did offer me...
Took mine 10 1/2 weeks and it was supposed to be a 6 week wait.. glad to hear they're back on schedule for the most part, hope their quilts are as good as everyone says. To be fair they did give me a...
Awesome work, nice to see this come all the way to fruition!
I think they might have bit off more than they can chew with the econ line. I just hope the quality is there, everybody Raves about them.
I've been using Dutch's winter socks for a couple years now, it's especially nice out on the coast where there's lots of wind and dense fog. It generally increases the internal temperature about 10...
So halfway through week 11 I received shipping confirmation and an apologetic email for the delay with a $20 refund.:<)
Treating your quilts with a dwr like Nikwax down proof would help a lot

I treat my quilts once a year and it makes a big...
The only thing I know about hammocks gear quilts for sure is I ordered one over 10 weeks ago and still haven't heard peep from them.
Well today marks week 10 of my 6 week wait and I'm still waiting, definitely not a happy camper!
Personally I don't use any of the calculators. I just do a volume calculation, length × width × thickness / fill power. Divide the amount of down I put in evenly amongst the Chambers. Has always...
Sometimes if I roll over to one side too much and get on the hymn of the hammock, but usually it's more just from shoulder squeeze I have broad shoulders.
Yes tarp skins make a big difference in deployment and pack up time. The same idea works very good for your hammock too. I keep my underquilt, top quilt, hammock and pillow and generally my winter...
I can't stand sleeping in the same position all the time. I generally change sides that I lay on two or three times a night, I do prefer my feet being up higher than my head but there's no way I...
I use S-biners to secure my underquilt suspension to my hammock continuous loop with no problems. And I find that the shock cord running through the channels is what causes the uplift and pulls the...
I think the main issue and point that was trying to be made is, when you buy a cheap instant pot at Walmart you know it's made in China. I think a lot of people were unaware that these quiltmaker's...
I get a lot of pressure on my heel which I can feel in my ankles, I generally sleep with my outside foot hanging over the edge of the hammock tucked in my underquilt works good. I also use a pillow...
Looks really nice:<)
I'm at the end of my 5th week of my "6 week" wait, and I'm still waiting for fulfillment .Anybody expecting these to ship out earlier than their estimated timeline shouldn't get their hopes up too...
I sleep in a hammock nightly in my living room with eye bolts in my 2×4 wall, I also have been build houses for a living for over 20 years. I would strongly suggest if you can to put the bolts in...
It's definitely time for some common sense hammock control. LOL but as usual, it's not the actual thing that it the problem, but the idiots improperly using that thing. Bark damage really depends on...
Speaking of IPA's, my wife pick me up A 6 pack of these last week, personally I don't like the way they tasted but they had some cool art. Lol

Almost an extra pound for a ground sheet ? A piece of 1.6 nylon ripstop that's been water treated works just fine too, cheap to buy by the yard and easy to hem and a whole lot lighter. You can also...
Besides hanging your food away from your campsite, hang your backpack on the trunk of a tree and leave all the zippers open, that way if something is intent on getting in they Maybe won't chew a hole...
Nice job, but as suggested before, one side should definitely be taller so you can get your feet end up higher than your head end this really helps increase the comfortableness of the lay. Do the...
I was set up in some heavy wind one time and it was blowing just right to vibrate the suspension, I had to put in earplugs lol next time you're laying in your hammock put your ear to the fabric and...
I do a lot of hanging on the beach, whip up a simple tripod stand and hang anywhere you want;<) with a little practice I can usually make a tripod stand in half an hour. It takes 6, 8'+pools and one...
Nice, I just ordered a 20 degree Econ incubator for my birthday, can't wait. I've been using my dyi underquilt for a couple years now which is only really good down to about 40, but I've pushed it...
I'm definitely going to go that route if I ever break a piece of rope, at this point I'm just curious how long it'll last. Lol
Yeah the Amsteel threads through one of the holes on the hook, you slide it up and down for your adjustment and secure with a half twist knot over the knob on the hook. Works great easy to use and...
Here's my setup, it's a piece of dyneema wedding with a length of 7/64 amsteel lark headed to it. Using a set of double whoopie hooks as speed hooks (which I will say Dutch does not recommend but I...

Maybe I miss read something but I use a pole mod with my set up with no issues.:<) oh I see, you're talking about a single line suspension. I guess mine technically is not a single...
I had a pretty good back injury my self about 12 years ago, bulged a disk which keeped making my sacrum get cockeyed and pinch my sciatic nerve wich made my left leg go numb then leave me with the ...
I've always attach my tarp directly to the suspension, just use shock cord on your tie outs to absorb the slack when you get in it that will eliminate the sagging problem, it has always worked quite...
Also what you might try, a lot of people like putting a small pillow or a folded up jacket or the like under their thighs just behind the knees. I keep my foot end well over a foot higher than my...
Glad you had a good time:<) 163141 being born and raised here I guess I take a lot of it for granted, but we definitely got some beautiful scenery around here.if you stay away from the small local...
Nice, just placed an order myself. although I noticed I got dinged on the shipping again, sent an email to customer service. I have no doubt they'll straighten it out for me :<) making the recipe...
I use an adjustable Ridgeline because of my Dutch winter sock that I use almost every hang, if the line is too tight the sock will compress my underquilt, so this adds a little flexibility so I don't...
A 4×4 definitely wouldn't work without bending over time and possibly breaking, if you use a 4×6 make sure the 51/2 inch portion is pointed towards the hammock. 6×6 would be better, and make sure you...
Papa Smurf is definitely the village wizard ;<)
Well according to the loft calculator 2.5 in should get you down to 20 degrees, but there's only one way to find out for sure;<)
