I've been using 1/2" mule tape for a couple of years and really like it. Very light and very strong.

You can get 1,000ft of it for $65.

I am curious if either Rocky or Solo Hiker have measurements of the various fabric pieces and if you'd be willing to share. I've been pondering making a setup like this but haven't bit the bullet...

After watching the aforementioned video from the vendor I now realize they've made it so you can keep your backpack inside on the internal ridgeline. Very nice.

Has anyone attempted a DIY...

Hi all,

I've been looking at the designs of the Lawson Bridge(n1), Jungle Hammock(n2), Bear Mountain Bridge(n3); in particular the way they use the tent poles to create a dome of sorts. I also...

Below is a pic of my most recent DIY hammock. Hammock body is roughly 83" long. Spreader bars are roughly 28" wide. Triangle suspension is roughly 2' on each end, though it could be shorter. If...

Has anyone tried this with a bridge hammock yet? A couple people have theorized about it but I haven't seen pics. I might have to scrap my plans to make a hot tent and try this out with my bridge. ...

I realize this is an old thread but it was very helpful for me to see this design. I made a few changes because I like having flexibility. Specifically, my pouches are "encased" in a double diamond...

I get ripstop for around $2/yd on eBay, both 1.9oz and 1.3oz. Look for a seller named fabric_2nds or something like that.
