How much?

Haha, I have been on here in a while, but I had to take a closer look to see if this wasn’t my post from a couple years ago. My story and yours varies only slightly in the details. Except I was...
Thanks guys. I've watched the XTrekker videos a couple times. I'll most likely watch them several more times before I'm through.
I just have a tendency to overthink things sometimes.

So I'm fairly new to DIY and thread injecting. I picked up some Robic and made a single layer hammock. I love the width and the feeling of the material and would be completely fine with it as an...
I started out with the straps and cinch buckles that came in my BB XLC. I Liked the ease of use with the straps and the ability to accommodate trees that were closer than ideal, but I wanted to be...
Great pics. I finally got around to rigging up my XLC inside. Been sleeping like a baby for the past week. Seeing your posts reminds me it's time to get back out to the woods though.
I know how you feel. I have some gear I've been wanting to sell for a little while now, but still short on the posts. I guess I'll just have to get a bit more active
I love my incubator 0. Still saving up for a burrow though. I do more cool weather camping than anything. Can't wait for the snow to fly.
I have one that I keep in my pack for emergencies, but have not used it yet. It definitely wouldn't be my choice for a TQ though.
I would like to thank Dutch. I have placed several orders, can't resist that "Dutch Bling", and the products and service is top notch.
Thanks to Derek as well. I have a copy of your book on my...
Thank you. Count me in.
On the BB XLC the zipper goes all the way around the hammock and can be completely zipped off. I believe on the regular BB the netting is sewn directly to the hammock on one side and a zipper on the...
This sounds amazing. Count me in.
I can't remember where I saw it but someone had switched out the stock Watbonnet cinch buckles for Dutch ones that had a continuous loop on the end and left the continuous loop on the hammock and...
I picked up a cocoon pillow, I'm not sure the model it was the baby blue one, a few months ago and I really like it. You can blow it up to whatever pressure you want and it has a soft fleece like...
Yep. I just looked again. That's exactly what I meant, weaving needle. I edited my previous post. Thank you for noticing that.
That wasn't as hard as I had anticipated

I ordered a tarpworm from Dutch that had the zing it all spliced and then mimicked that. Well that and just did a you tube search for splicing zing it. There's a couple great threads on here about...
I actually tried my hand at splicing this week and you'd be surprised. A lot of trial and error ( got the locked brommel and the back splice down but forgot to put the hardware on), and a few hours...
That's great news. I went with the coyote brown outside black inside. It looks great with the olive brown of my XLC. I hung my hammock up and had my friend lay in it so I could get the UQ dialed in....
Dutch, thank you for this awesome opportunity, and thank you Alana. You guys rock. This will be my first attempt at a DIY, but I'm ready.
I'm planning an 11' double layer with integrated bug net...
I have heard of people using the permatex with success. I used silnet on my superfly, although I haven't gotten caught in the rain yet I'm confident it will do the trick.
Yes you need to buy guy...
Order #8100 placed on 3/31/15 arrived yesterday 4/8/15. I am very impressed with the quality and service. Super fast turnaround time. Thanks so much Adam, Jenny and crew. I couldn't be happier
I second that. A couple other color choices would be excellent. I really like the brown with yellow idea.
I missed the first round, but I'm excited to see it re-launched. Just ordered mine today. Would love to get in on the stickers as well. I'm new to the forum and not sure how the pm's work, but if...
I second going the Sierra Trading Post route. A friend of mine was on a pretty tight budget too and he bought a pair of Asolos from there. The Powermatic 100s I believe. And we've been hiking about...
Thank you all for your responses. It really helps in the decision making process.
Donna thanks so much for the information. The level of customer care is quite impressive. I will be placing my...
I would really like to go. It's just my schedule is pretty hectic, since I final out of the Army on the 15th. It seems to be a fairly involved process. I guess it will depend on how much I can get...
Thanks. I guess what I was getting at was Argon or non- argon. But as you said it's sort of just a matter of what goes best with your hammock.
Likewise Sadrian, I'm looking forward to my first group hang and just get out there with like minded individuals. Thanks for the welcome
Birch, yes 115 is four lanes. I've inly been here for 3 years now but I'm sure there have been many changes. I hope you get a chance to make your way back. It really is a great little area. Lots of...
No problem. It has been an awesome experience. And thank you to your family as well. Wow. Got three different branches covered. If you know of any hangs coming up in CO please let me know. I've had...
I'm in the market for and underquilt protector from 2QZQ and I was wondering... What is the preferred fabric for it? The 2QZQ breathable ripstop or Dutches breathable Argon 90? There's only a 6"...
Zilla, just a quick question about washing the XLC. Is that with the bug netting on or off?
Oh. And I am loving this Superfly and BB XLC. I have been a tent camper for a long time but I have NEVER slept so good in the woods.
I thought I would just add a couple pics of my set up. I've still got a lot of learning and experimenting to do. But I'm having a blast doing it. The weather here has been great and I've been out the...
Wow. Your first post on my second. Just two noobs in CO. I like it.
Hello and welcome to the forum. I can appreciate your enthusiasm. I'm afraid I've caught the same bug.
It looks beautiful out there. Mt Evans is on my list. I did Mt Elbert last year, back in the...
Well I pulled the trigger on the incubator 0*. Now comes the weeks of impatience. Till I get to feel the downy goodness.
I too would love a mesh window on my XLC winter cover. Keep us posted if you find anyone that will do it
Thank you for you're responses. It looks like my decision is getting easier. I'm still thinking of bulk though. The weight difference isn't much but I'd have a fair amount more space in the pack with...
I'm currently active duty Army living in Colorado Springs, CO but will soon be getting out. I plan on staying in CO because I love the mountains out here. I'm from the Lakes Region of NH originally...
I apologize. I know this topic has been discussed a lot. That being said, I'm about to buy either an Incubator 0* or Incubator 20* and I can't decide for the life of me.
My question is just as the...
