    Greetings, from the mitten

    Hello all. I'm new to the hammock forums. I've lurked around a bit, checking out threads here and there, but making sense of some of the stuff with out the pictures was proving challenging in some cases. So I've decided to make an account finally XD

    Anyway, I'm pretty new to hammocking in general, don't have anything of my own (but hope to change that soon )

    I'm a DIYer at heart, anything from woodworking, to metal work, to crochet and knitting. So I'm likely to make as much as I think my skills will allow

    I'm also contemplating a hammock as a bed replacement, as even a rope hammock makes me want to fall asleep much faster than I ever could in a bed XD

    I'm open to any and all suggestions, and look forward to learning as much as I can.

    Welcome from Fenton

    Lots of great folks and information here

    It's not to arrive safely at the grave in a well preserved body,
    But rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting,
    Woo Hoo!....What a Ride!

    Welcome from Fla! Wife(MightyMouse) and I switched to full-time hammocks a few months ago. Never rested better!
