Thank you for the heads up on the masks, I ordered two! I now might feel a little better when I'm out grocery shopping wearing some kind of mask and the hand sanitizer I keep in my car, a cloth mask...
I decided to change my setup like how some folks have it on this forum, I now want to use shock cord locks! I'll recycle the pieces of shock cord I already cut and make some continuous loops to...
Should the length be a total of 17" after cutting and tying the knots to hold the hardware, cause it will be shorter after tying my overhand knots to hold my mitten hook on one side and the loop to...
Thank you very much, I will cut my four door pieces to 17". :thumbup1:

I ordered 25' of 3/32 shock cord from Dutch that came in today but I'm not sure at what length I should cut them down to, I plan on using a larks head on the tarp side and attaching a Dutch/Tato tarp...

That reminds me of a tarpworm and hookworm.
Op here to update the thread, I ended up ordering a 100' hank of lime green 2.5mm Guywire, the non-reflective version of Glowire. Now I'll have reflective guylines and a non-reflective but still...
Received my Superfly in the mail yesterday, I just finished seam sealing the pullouts this afternoon, hopefully will get to use my new tarp this weekend! :cool:
Thank you Warbonnet!
GeneH, I'm StinkBait from BCUSA forums that posted about glowire over there, I also want to know the answer to this question. :thumbup1:
Thanks for the info!
I plan on using a bowline on one end, and either a truckers hitch or figure-9 on the other, prusik knots for tarp tension.
I like my 2mm Lawson glowire so much for my guylines that I'd like to use the same type of cordage for my tarp continuous ridgeline, except without the reflective properties, Guywire is supposed to...
Unfortunately the custom tarps are not part of the sale, if they were I would have jumped on that 12' Superfly, instead I bought the 11' superfly that was on sale, I think the 13' superfly that is...
Woohoo! Made an order for the 11' WB Superfly, this will be my first real hammock tarp that I own, time to retire my well used $12 Lowes poly tarp!

Thank you Snaps, I found some videos on RSBTR website for those buckles.
Ohhh Darn, I need to dig into more research on the strap width, I thought I read 1" was sufficient, I need to double check and make sure I'm good with my 1" setup in my surrounding State parks, last...
Hey fellow hangers, I am from Florida and I am reading that I need to hang my hammock and tarp from 1" straps in Florida State Parks, I'm good with my hammock since I use Dutch cinch buckles hung...

I car camp, so if i have to change or something, I'll use my vehicle as a shield,or go inside my truck and change. My favorite camp site has nice restrooms with showers, so i mostly use that.

Go to the DIY section of this forum, then click on "The TurtleDog Stand" thread. I built two, they are super easy to make and IMHO cheap to build.

Rereading the thread again and this caught my eye! 😎 Nice job!
Looks Sweet!
Thanks again hppyfngy. 😎
If I were to build a 2x4 version down the line, would the same angle cuts from the diagram still work on that size lumber?
I think I can scrounge up enough scrapped used 2x4 at my job, they're...
I just got back from a Home Depot run, I picked up two stainless steel 5-3/8 eye-bolts with 3/8" nuts. The 8" will get hack sawed down to size in the future.
I also bought two stainless steel "S"...
hppyfngy, I bought the fence top post, its seems like a smaller diameter than the ridge pipe in this pic, would that same eye bolt work for my rig? Or do I need a smaller eye bolt?
Welcome fellow Floridian, It's my first day on the forums as well.
Thank you, I'll use my 550 cord and hang it low.
Thanks again! :shades:
