Replaced with new 1.1 guide! :) https://www.tensaoutdoor.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/Tensa4-User-Guide.v1.1.pdf
Try base width about 6' or 72"
Head end pole on the outside at base (ground) and the Foot end pole running to outside at base.
Check out at 7:30 into the video. :)

Yes, a little loose, to help stablize it (view video at 6 minutes in)

I just ordered a Tensa Solo, now after watching this I want another pole :lol:
Let's face it... I want a Tensa 4 :cool:
Thanks for sharing this GadgetUK437
I am not sure how this was missed...
Yes not much on the Tensa Solo but in regards to the NoGround Hiking Pole...
The Shug did this back in 2016...Hanging from One Tree with NoGround Hiking Pole First Look
...
Awesome :) Look forward to trying it out!
Yes, with the U-indent shape?
Curious is the current Tensa Solo being sold has identical tubing with the 1″ tubing at the ends of the Tensa4 stand (end with 4 segments) with the additional 5th segement on top to create the Tensa...
Head is in a good place, I like this OneClick already! :)
Yes, I trail run and hammock camp at night. I usually go from point A to Point B :) Generally, multi-day runs covering 100miles (2-3 days) to 200miles (5 days). I haven't done a base camp but...
Thanks, I would say most are not equipped with trees to hang but pictures are available for each site to help select
We also did some hammock camping at Murphys Point which is a little closer to...
Great Work! Now only if I had one! It might take me 5 years to learn to sew! :) Awesome, Work!

or just Connect/Tie tarp line to end cap holes instead of a tree.
Hey thejsf, here...sorry don't currently have a close-up but the tarp is connected to the End Cap holes.
Tarp attached along the rail from the ends using a Continuous Ridgeline
A roll top style dry bag will do it and I would say 15 liters is good.
There are two on each side that are adjustable from inside the hammock providing more tension to keep the bugnet off of your face. Also, these tie outs are movable, you simply unsnap them from the...
Yes, I believe 25mm (1 inch) conduit would be better! I have to admit I have seen some post on 20mm and thought 25mm would be the minimum! :)
Welcome from O-Town :)
If you want to move to a different tree or if the tree branches get in the way then you can't simply slide the suspension up the tree. If you threaded your webbing through itself, you would have to...
Looking at the specs it appears to be an ENO size style stand. If the hammock in under 10 feet it may be okay!
I guess it depends on how close you’re willing to get to the ground, and whether you...
TATO GEAR HAMMOCK STAND

Just in case try this first :) How To: Micro-Mesh Repair

Cimorine if you make another one! :) Image from post # 1 165573
The plain galvanized works and is less expensive but I like the finish look too!

Thanks, Kitsapcowboy :)
I did a quick search it appears 1-3/8 is more common in your region. :) Good Luck! I look forward to seeing your hammock stand!
Rail Ends from Home Depot along with everything else with exceptions of Amsteel continous loops, Amsteel rope and Toggles.
I agree, b o t s, nothing to worry about when I am in a hammock. :)
Ha ha...Perhaps there needs to be a Dutchware Gear Canada... :)
Hey Iceiceguy, thanks! What I like about this setup is the suspension stays right on... toggle and all :) Clean and Simple!
On another note: A friend asked about bolts...The smooth part of a...
Thanks Smckinney0031 and BuckeyeFan for your words of encouragement. :)
Good Question Jacko1066, I'll check the angle later today but I believe it may be close to 30 degrees. I just eyeballed it and a quick index finger and thumb check!

Edit for Update:...
I thought my new hammock turtledog stand needed a 2018 thread. :) I Love it, I hope you do too!:cool:
I thought I give the Turtle Dog Hammock Stand a go! I have no suitable trees in the backyard and I just need some fresh air!:cool:
8" Gate hinges...maybe overkill 5" or 6" heavy duty gate hinges...
Hey Shnnn, I just ordered some AMSTEEL CONTINUOUS LOOPS 8 and 15 inches and perhaps next time I will order DOG BONE 24 or 36 inches.
I am going to try 8-inch Continuous loop larks to the pole.
I am going to build a stand this week too for the backyard. I would recommend a continous loop and Lark's Head Knot
That's always good news :) My better half is looking for a Deep Purple Chameleon in the regular width ;) but she is undecided if it's going to be 1.0 or 1.6 Hexon.
It's always nice to see the...
Awesome @oxinthebox good choice! :) Enjoy the hang!
The Hexon W 1.6 is good up to 350 Pounds and at if you are 245 I would go with a single layer!
Two questions: How firm do you want it and would you want to place a pad between the layers?
Great spot for the Chameleon in the Wild (Wide) :) Sweet Campground!
I would go ahead and get the Chameleon in a hexon 1.6 :)
It's the tarp that's going to protect the hammock and note that SilPoly or a Hexon tarp are better in the Sun than SilNylon.:cool:
Hennessy Expedition is still longer in length than the Eno hammocks! The NoMad Stand fits an ENO length hammock. It goes along with their product line, it is aimed at the festival crowd.
Yes, I've heard it now and then...who am I kidding...often...I call it the hammock lullaby.:cool: This is what It's like to have extraordinarily heightened senses when you become one with the hammock...
Nice couple of spots for the hammock, Keep Rockin' Two Speed! :cool:
Stay off the top of the mountains, :) good to go!
Spring/Summer/Fall, 20 degree, vent in mid summer as needed!
The D ring with hook on the outside would be for the tie out along with the D ring towards the center.
The hooks would be for the underquilt!

Happy Hanging! The XL is the way to go! :)
I started off with a Hennessy Explorer and now I prefer the cottage vendors we have here on the forums!:) so LuvmyBonnet I believe you made the right choice!!:cool:
