Good news. Now that my son is a licensed driver and since this falls during the break between terms at college, we should be able to make it even though it is a longer drive. On the calendar!

My son and I had a blast. So much fun hanging out with everyone. I'm glad I had a chance to meet many new people. I don't think I'm going to want any bacon for awhile, I guess I better freeze the...
I actually just swapped out my vivre hammock for a new one after about 4 years of nightly use. It finally tore on me when pushing my feet against the fabric while getting out of it one morning. I've...
What is it about signing up for Baconfest that suddenly causes an intense rise in bacon cravings well before the event? (May have had several BLT's recently...)
May be a little excited about being...
Booyah!! Count me in that's a super duper doable drive. Putting on my calendar now.
Hmmmm... sounds like my basement and I didn't move! LOL! It'll get there. Your nieces are lucky to have such an amazing and talented aunt making them hammock gear!
I was wondering if there are any updates on this project? I'm super curious to see how it turns out.
With all this talk I decided to go check out the site to see what has changed. I see that there is a new push-pin for the connector. Will it fit through the smaller holes of the first run of keyed...
Some alternative ways of describing how to determine the suspension lengths.
a. Formula - e.g. (12' - length of hammock) / 2 = minimum suspension length at each end
b. Subtract the length of your...
My son and I have been using very similar setup for 2.5 years now. Just add a fleece underquilt, blankets, and optional pillow! Glad you had a comfy alternative until your bed arrived. Interesting...
I just found this thread and these are very tempting. Additional colors I'd vote for are 1. purple, 2. blue, and 3. gunmetal. If I keep looking at these very long a pair is likely to drop into my...
Oooo... that's gorgeous! I look forward to seeing your setup once complete. So beautifully coordinated!
Just saw your question. I've actually never been there myself. Found a recommendation for it on a hammocking site and liked what I saw. You can view pictures of the various sites if you visit the...
My son and I going to be camping at Wildcat Den State Park the third weekend in September. There are no group sites except for youth groups. There are quite a few sites still available, including the...
My first hammock and the one I go camping with is by Ticket to the Moon. It a nice hammock and I really like it. I've got material to make a slightly longer one, but I have to be in the mood actually...
Interesting... This is the first I've ever heard of baking bacon instead of frying in a pan. I'll have to give it a try.
I was already planning to buy precooked bacon! LOL!
I've got a Pre-Cut WINTER12 Tarp Kit in Moroccan Blue 1.1 oz Silpoly with components from Ripstop by the Roll that I bought about a year and a half ago. Since I haven't made it up yet (let alone the...
Thanks for recommending Pinicon Ridge in Central City. I took a look at the group sites online and from the pictures it appears that these sites have very few trees that would allow for hanging in...
I have one and used it at BaconFest last year with my son. It worked well, but made setup and take down more finicky/time consuming. I still haven't decided whether I want to keep it or not, but my...
I just went to update the signup list with a few details and there's been a whole bunch of new people that have signed up! Almost to the limit. Love it!
From the pictures on the product page I'm seeing both a blue model and a black model, but I don't see anyway to choose color, pattern, etc. So what color(s) does it come in? Will more be available...
Is it May yet? I'm ready for some delicious BLTs!
I was just looking at the parts page and wondering if the TiggzToggle will be available as a separate item (for those of us that are crazy enough to want to do our own splicing for something a little...
Ooooo... will it have an option to use custom printed fabric from RipstopByTheRoll??? I'm particularly fond of Prym1 Camo in Wildcat Purple...
So far for indoor hanging I've found that the hinge of a door works well per Latherdome's suggestion. I'd also trust tying off to a heavy piece of furniture, but haven't had the need to go that route...
I had been regretting not adding a top quilt for my son to my Thanksgiving Sale order last month. Well, this sale allowed me to fix that. Order placed!
Out of curiosity, I checked their production status page and there are two quilts that match your orderdate and quilt type. You might want to check there to see if one of them is indeed yours. Also I...
This spring I went hammock camping with my son. We were planning to use the dutch double hooks with a spreader bar, but I made the mistake of forgetting the bar at home. In the end we found a pair of...
Even though I have absolutely no need to be able to hang six hammocks, this really is making me want to order the extra stands for the "cool" factor. Must resist...
Fund received and Both stands now sold.
Sold Pending Payment
Weekly Bump. Still available.
I love the improvements to the stands. I found two buttons in two stands that refused to fully pop out to connect two poles. After playing a bit and swapping some buttons and tubes I determined that...
I've also realized that I didn't specify earlier that my shipping included offer is intended for residents of the US. If someone outside of the US would like to purchase the stand, I'd still be happy...
Oh man... Now I need to start saving up for a pair of DynaFlies to go with my pair of Tensa4 stands. If only I could get my last V1 stand to move along to its new home that would certainly help the...
I wonder if it would be safe to extrapolate from that, that a heavier person say (around 225lbs) would be safe using using their 19.5mm Charmeuse/Silk Crepe Satin to make a hammock ?!? When I have...
Not enough group hangs near me!!!
Here's a picture of everything that's included. If you're not familiar with the stand then please checkout the vendor's website or their thread in the Other Vendors and Services. Lots of pictures...
I'd say that you have a right to be confused. I believe this is a case of a person using the wrong name for the suspension that they sold you. It looks like it's should be a viable setup, but I'm not...
I could take some if needed. Are you looking for some specific shots?
Weekly bump. Final price drop to include full cost of shipping in the cost of $200. My new stands are on the way, so this one really needs to be on it's way to it's new home.
Bumping for the remaining stand that is still available. Willing to split the cost of shipping to get this one moving. It really is a great stand and will serve you well, I wouldn't have felt the...
Now why couldn't they have done this back when I was a student?!?
Of course I may have to go for a visit to see if I can figure out the schematics to build one in my back yard!!
I would make sure that you've got enough cordage to ensure that you can let out the ridgeline longer than the ridgeline you have on your hammock. I made the rookie mistake of not having any extra so...
Bumping as one stand is still available.
There are actually two group hangs planned for Michigan coming up in mid October and the beginning of November. Have you checked to see if they are at all near you? Perhaps you could swing by during...
I sleep on both sides and occasionally my back when in a hammock BUT I'm strictly head right and feet left. Doesn't matter which side I'm sleeping on, to get comfy my head has to be to the right....
One stand sold and one stand still available.
I have two original Tensa Stands for Sale. They have been used once indoors and are in great condition. I love them, but I'm upgrading to the current model to take advantage of the improvements in...
