I'm thinking that would be torque/force. Force being mass*acceleration

1.8N would be the equivalent of stopping a 1kg object moving at 1.8m/s. So not very strong at all

Edit: saw that it was...

You know I'm in I love my excursion hammock. A nice infinity rainfly would be a godsend. Sign me up.

No worries! I doubled up the straps by making continuous loops by water knotting the ends and then larks heading the straps to the anchor(read tree) and running my msh through both layers of strap.

Infinity outfitters double. You can get one with 6ft whoopies already installed for 60. And your supporting a made in USA cottage vendor.

Was the EGO statement aimed at me? I'm not following. I think we established about a dozen posts ago that there was no harm no foul. So what seems to be the issue now? That I stuck up for myself?

Stitch witchery is what I used on two full 10'seems. My logic tells me that there won be much pressure or weight on the bug net as its fully suspended and floating if you will. The ends being...

I have 50 posts now and still can't post in the matketplace. Is this something that I need to do from my computer? I currently use tapatalk

I'll have to do a front yard hang. I had it up camping this weekend and didn't take a single picture the whole trip. I was so mad when I realized I hadn't taken any photos all weekend.

I can't read the dimensions. How big is this tarp?

I have a weanas as well as two from infinity outfitters.

I'd gladly pay the extra for the infinity.

I think they're going for 60 right now but that includes 6ft whoopies slings already on it....

I was worried my math was off so I added 3" of taffeta to both ends of each bugnet and stitched the channel in that.

I totally think that just the adhesive would hold up for several dozen uses. I...

Joann's fabrics. I had a coupon and got it for $0.75/yd.

Agreed however I think for an overall cost of about 15$ a piece I can call it replaceable

The bug net was a success. No photos in use. I did however stitch the channel for my drawstring. But everything else was done with glue.

Well where I was the trees were a circumference of 15+ft. So I had more of a struggle keeping my straps in place vs stretching. However the hang was glorious. No can someone point m in the direction...

Infinity outfitters excursion. Comes with whoopies slings. 45$

I'll be using my webbing this weekend. My intent is to make loops using water knots so I can double up the webbing for my attachment points.

:cool: awesome!!

I have 18 yards of tulle cut and ready to go!!!

Well I'm gonna try it.

Has anyone tried using the iron on adhesive to make a tubular bug net? My thought is the seem only needs so much strength and for the ends it would b easy to glue a rolled hem with a channel for some...

Wow that's freaking awesome

Hang myself? Wow rough crowd...jk

I had the same thoughts. I actually saw a trig formula in another post that illustrated the actual weight the suspension and straps are under when in use for a...

I'll post full results soon.

So here's what I did. I joined a 10 foot piece of the webbing with a water knot. Hung it vertical using a half hitch and then made a msh in both halves of the loop and was able to hang from it with...

Good ups bro! Check out their store they have straps kit for sale. Or go to a sporting goods store and get some webbing

Here's my plan. I'm going to make a continuous loop thats about 40ft. 20 once connected. I'm going to hook it up as a tree strap utilizing a marlin spike hitch and a carabinier on my head end and a...

Hmmmm. Seeing as to me being new and all do I get a grace period for remedial questions that have already been answered 5 bagilion times?

I thought my post was reasonable and if you like at my op...

Thanks for that input. I'll just give it a whirl. Does anyone know of any sites that provide cold hard data on stretch and strength of different flat webbings?

Well what can I use 600 feet of nylon webbing for?

Lol. I had about 10 or so homemade stoves and narrowed it down to the one pictured and another wood gas variety. I guess I like the heat out put vs heat control offered by other varieties. But like...

That was my main concern when going with a less known company but after very forwardly asking the owner if they made them or imported them he was very assertive that they make their hammocks...

Good looking out. I may string up some weights from my oak tree and let them dangle overnight and see how bad the stretch is.

That would a been nice on Sunday when I was researching and ordering. But I think I wound up with a great hammock.

Only one word of caution. The penny stoves aka pressure stoves can pop and spew boiling alcohol. I know everyone thinks oh no not me but I'm saying it can happen because I happened to me.

I don't doubt this at all. But I guess I'm willing to roll the dice for lower cost and go from there. Thanks for the understanding guys.

Sounds like I could fix this pretty easy by just adjusting my whoopies to accommodate the sag as well. Again I'm not even an amateur yet as I have yet to hang my first hammock. But I figure its...

That sounds like a pita. I have some 10 foot can buckle tie downs too that I'm gonna try out as well but being that I'm in California and dealing with some rather large pine trees I'm more worried...

Hopefully my 11' hammock with 6' whoopies will go most of the distance. I don't know how far apart the trees will be but I'd imagine I'll be only using two or three feet of a tail from each strap....

So I was fortunate to buy 2 100yd rolls of 1" nylon webbing. From what I've read it seems it may not be appropriate for straps as some say it stretches. But I must say this stuff feels very stout...

I need to apologize. I wasnt trying to put anyone on a pedestal or doubt any companies craftsmanship. I may someday be a customer. I love the input everyone has. But as always YMMV.

I'm in!! I'm absolutely unqualified to say what I love about hanging. My first trip is this weekend. Taking a group of kids from my church camping this weekend and will be bringing several of my...

Truthfully you can easily make one. Its a lot of fun.

I'm in and will cover shipping. Any color

Yea I most definitely will. They are very cost effective for a cottage vendor. I went with them because they were very confident in their product and were more than happy to answer my questions and...

Hence why I went with who I went with. They're a small company made in the USA. And I didn't have to break the bank.

Funny I actually looked at your hammocks originally but couldn't afford them.

I like the way your netting is incorporated

Very cool. I just like making people explain. Helps me learn. I just got an infinity excursion pro and from what I've learned since joining this forum they're product is an excellent value and well...

Nice discount!!! One more day til I get my excursion!!!

I just bought an 11' "double" from infinity outfitters. Pre installed whoopie sling suspension for 53 shipped. I'd give them a look see. Don't be shy to contact Dominic he's very easy to work with...
