Is that the bean hammock (RIP... literally)?

Wow! Can you share where you got the hot tent and stove? I haven’t seen this one before, but I haven’t been in the forums for a while either.

I like the whoopie hooks better. They are smaller and more weight conscious. You will get a natural water break with the tail of the whoopie sling. The hook will likely act as smaller water break as...

Looks great! I just made a hammock out of the robic. I have wanted to do an integrated bug net but I am afraid I will totally screw it up. Do you just cut the netting the same size as the cloth? Or...

My mom has used a similar singer she found at the dump many many years ago. There is a very simple method for doing the reverse stitch. Stop the stitch with the needle still in the fabric, raise the...

What's the width of the hammock?

I have seen your "extra triangle" in another video. I love the idea.

I use it on occasion. It works great as long as you don't tie any hard to remove knots. Truckers hitch works great. I tie my tarps out just like Andrew Skurka does. One thing you should be aware of...

You can browse without being logged in when using Tapatalk from what I remember. Have you confirmed you are logged in to Hammock Forums and not just Tapatalk?

Group hug!

Just placed my order for 4 yards. Combined with my MARA 70 I'm expecting to have a fun DIY weekend coming up soon.

Hey RezaM, when you get your hammock, set it up and post some pics. I'd love to see what you got.

BTW Durtsurf I just watched your video on the triangle hammock. I love the idea. Even if it was detachable like a gear pod or something. My mind is in overdrive right now with that concept.

I'm not sure. I found it at a local store. If I had to guess I would say 1.6. Is there a way to tell?

Except around my neck of the woods. They stand there and look at me like I am an idiot. I already feel like an idiot going into the fabric shop as it is. When I try to talk to them about thread for...

I purchased mine from HG and couldn't be happier. Great quality and I love the product!

Very similar to something I proposed a year or so ago. The idea I had was to slip it inside the end of the strap and seal it. The feedback I got was it would make it more difficult to pull out....

Don't forget the bishop bag and you may want a structural ridge line. 20lb test spider wire should to the trick. Lol

Dude! I loved the videos! I think I am ready to try to make my own UQ now. It's ok that your wife thinks that. I would bet most of our wives feel that way too. So we will support each other. [emoji6]...

I have decided to jump into the fray. I purchased my thread injector (Singer 9100), loaded some nylon upholstery thread (I have my Gütermann MARA 70 coming from ripstopbytheroll) and jumped in with...

I slept in these style of hammocks for two years in the Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico. My advice is the bigger the better. The comfort level gets better the bigger the hammock. But even the large and...

Welcome to the forums dingojack!

Y'all realize Maguwa posted his 3 years ago right? Just in case you didn't look at the date, I'm letting you know. He may not even still be around. Alt.thomas was just checking to see if he is still...

I second what SilvrSurfr said. I have been in hammocks since 1990 and never had one failure. Your line of thought would be similar to taking an extra tent in case he one you are using gets a leak or...

Oh.. I also own this. Can you post pictures of your mod? I'm also interested in a response on your question.

I'll take it! Oh... Wrong forum category. [emoji12] That's a mighty fine bird you got there.

I love that you can see a smiley face in the first picture. Do you see it? Beautiful rig you got there.

Hello everybody, I'm Chuck. It has been two weeks since my last purchase.

Portable hammock stand it is! ;)

After seeing this, I am going to start this too! Sounds like fun!

Or eye hooks in the walls. I have this hanging on eye hooks screwed into the studs of the wall. They work great.

Here, maybe these pics will help you Mouseskowitz.

Tie a knot in the side of the hammock.

Toss the child (see pillow) and flip the other side up over the top.

Use a Mayan hammock. You can tie a knot in the side to use like a makeshift ridge line and then wrap the opposite side up over the top. It works perfectly and keeps them netted in. That's how they do...

Welcome to HF! I graduated from Firth High back in the day. So I know very well where your from. There are some great places to hang in your next of the woods. I've always wanted to camp at Big Elk...

Hey Loptr it's nice to be meeting some fellow Utahns here on HF. I am down in Cedar Hills (AF / Alpine area). I also am trying for the once a month. At the very least hanging. I will count hanging in...

What years model is this?

Who makes that hammock anchor? I have looked at trying those. I some on bias website. But I wondered if it degrades the integrity of the amsteel chord. What is your experience?

I saw another post with quite a few Wasatch folks. I think if we can pick a date and then get the word out, we might get a good turn out. Where was everything thinking of going?

Wow! I didn't realize how many of us Wasatch Front folks are on here. I am in North Utah County. I have been hanging since 92 when I spent 2 years in a Mayan hammock in Mexico. I have been in love...

I have to admit my heart sank a little when I saw the video on the untimely demise of the green bean. I know what it's like to lose gear in that fashion. So I am happy the new green bean has arrived.

Count me in. I have a few guys that would be in as well. I have been wanting to get something going in this area for a while. The Wasatch HammoCon... Teehee.

I think there may be some over simplification. The CF has more pros than just the weight savings. The water does not penetrate the CF like it can nylon. The durability and non stretch is also a pro....

Haha! A million and one silly reasons to want them on but still not listening to reason. I guess that's what makes his stuff so fun. The only right way is your own way. I love it!

I debated long and hard before buying my CF tarp. I take it everywhere and I love it. I also purchased the super fly. I like it too, but not like my CF. the weight, non-stretch and durability is...

I am so going to bring this up in the next city council meeting. We need more of these. Besides, they are cheaper than benches and way easier to maintain. Less prone to be vandalized.

There is a Northern Utah Frozen Butt Hang? I had no idea. I may be interested depending on how far North and the weekend. I have always wanted to find a group of hangers in my area. Where abouts...

Hello from Utah.

Hmmm. In my industry (software engineer) there is a saying. There is cheap, fast, and right. Pick two. The moral of the story is, you need to pick two. There is smallest and lightest but not...

Have you considered making your own? It is rather easy. However if you are that adventurous it's a try it until you find one you like. Just remember to give it some time. Don't get discourage or give...

Awesome! I love the clean finished look on the ends of the hammocks. The zip tie is brilliant! I just changed my DIY over to the zip tie and it was the finished look I have been waiting for. Thanks...
