Finished this little (11 foot) guy the other day for the wife. She can lay in it sideways....
I have my wife and 3 boys. The two oldest and I were camping out in the back yard for most of the mandatory stay at home order. Now that the gov of florida opened up barbershops again I'm not going...
No not in particular. I guess if I had a reason most all of my modular hammock stands the poles are always at an angle so why not do it with the post. I guess another reason would be since we have...
I convert it to ml then back to ounces so people dont have to do math themselves

I did use an eighty lb bag of concrete for each post just because of the sandy soil

Mostly hang in the back yard with the HH and the wife and I like to "camp" in the florida keys every year for our anniversary. I have a much lighter set up with 1/8 continuous loops with buckles and...
I have 50 ft of 1/8.. I told my wife how strong the 7/8 was that I could pull 3 of my trucks with it . She said how is that possible.

One day. I have a pretty decent fire pit as well
[emoji38] Oh I am well aware that's why I did it for s&g that's not salt and garlichttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20200428/ca7d7e9333cc62db90b93ec2a307bb54.jpg

I have a few beautiful oaks in my back yard and three 10 ft post. I can have 8 hammocks tied up at once if I wanted. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20200428/a390649a2ce7e018da6bf7dcffa0b52c.jpg

Used 3/8 amsteel for s&g. Two six ft sections and made some whoopie slings. It works but definitely overkill.

Would love to around that time but my anniversary is the 21st

Oh and I remember growing up watching Gilligan's island watching them sleep in a hammock and have always wanted to try it

I'm down. I'm trying to get the wife into hammock camping I'll see if she wants to go too.
What made me a hanger? To be honest I was tired of making a bed. Four years ago before I got married for the second time (I guess I didn't learn the first time) I had a roommate. My room wasn't...
Yea it might be wise to stay on the safe side. It does say any other line connected to the tree that is if your tarp has a separate suspension from your hammock.

Yea. I've camped in the WMA over in Punta Gorda and the park rangers just walk/drive on by.
Hammock use and any other associated lines may be attached to trees that are minimum of 12 inches in diameter measured at chest height and using a minimum of 1 inch wide flat web straps. Some parks...
My barbers cape has the same type of connection, but I never thought of incorporating into a hammock
Thanks!

I've sat in it already. I like mine tight I feel like I get flatter on the diag. The wife and I were and to sit in it. I'm 175 and she's 105 so I know it holds up to 280.

I can see it. Kinda like how the eno guardian is. I'm thinking you can sew it into the ridge line seam and let it hang down under the hammock. Also you can come down a foot on both sides of the ridge...
