It can be hard to find 3M 9485 transfer tape in small quantities. But I think there are other brands of transfer tape besides 3M that work just as well. You can search Amazon for transfer tape.

Just get some 3M 9485 PC transfer tape. You slap it on your Dymeema and when you are ready to use it pull the paper backing off the 3M tape and and you have Dyneema tape ready to patch or join your...
Sorry to hear about your issues. HG does make good well designed stuff. I am 5'9" and come in under 140 pounds and have the same problem with the shaped and well designed Warbonnet Wookie. If I am...
I also have an original 10' blackbird. The wookie will work on it by just tying a simple loose overhand knot in the main body gather up near one end. It is made to be stretched tight by end elastic...
Sorry for not responding to the question. I was out on a multi day hammock backpacking trip.
Yes, it is made by warbonnet for a warbonnet 11' XL and is still for sale.
Sorry for the confusion here folks, but..... after getting a couple of discounted offers I checked my original invoice from Warbonnet when I purchased the wookie. I had forgotten I had it custom made...
This item is still for sale. Bucky is no longer interested.
Here are some of the overnight trips I took this summer where I used a hammock rather than a tent. Each hammock camp is followed by the view from that camp. All are in the central cascades of...
For sale, Warbonnet Wookie XL 0* under quilt. New condition, used outside one time. I have added a couple of snaps along the side channels to snap it to the hammock to decrease sag and gaps. I will...
I got an original Superior Gear 30* integrated 10’ open hammock before he was selling all the nice add-on options like zip-on bug nets and UQP, etc. I have been using it in a Warbonnet 10’ sock. That...
I have a superior 30* that in my opinion needs a little more bottom insulation in any situation other than mid summer in the high cascades. So I just add my Warbonnet Wookie 20* to the bottom. I have...
I am also interested in a Falcon. I sent them an email via their website asking what are on the tie-out points/ridgeline (D-rings or line locs) and whether it was symmetrical or if it has a...
I had Warbonnet custom make me two different WBBB XL hammocks with a solid fabric sewn-on top cover instead of a sewn-on bug net. One is a 1.1 with a sewn-on 1.1 top cover and the other is a 1.7 with...
Not real cheap, but Western Mountaineering makes a great VBL. https://www.westernmountaineering.com/sleep-accessories/hotsac-vbl/
Warbonnet just go to show you that when you make a well designed high quality product that works well and provide good service it's not hard to be successful.
I have a Dutch wide netless hammock made from 1.6 hexon in a dark color. He had them on sale a few years ago so I bought one and didn't like the lay so I never used it even one time. I could let you...
One of the main reasons the WBBB and WBBB XL are so popular is that fact that they have that nice footbox which gives you an automatic asymmetrical lay. I have three and personally like them so much...
I just used my 20* 11' wookie XL on my old original 10' WBBB that I have had for almost 15 years. I like to keep things simple and am not a big fan of complicated rigging, so to shorten the wookie a...
You also have to consider that each end is taking half the weight, so that is an even bigger safety margin. I like to keep them short in case I get caught with a short hang distance. Also, I use 1/8"...
Very timely post. I usually work on my hammock gear during deep snow months here in the NW. My latest effort was to add three plastic snaps along the sides of both of my WBBB XL hammocks and matching...
Since I always carry a folding sit pad anyway, I just place it under my hammock at night. I hold it down with my boots in a dyneema waterproof bag or just put a couple of Ti shepherd stakes in the...
OK, thanks for the input. I also contacted the techs at Dutchware, they are basically saying the same thing. Their recommendation was an offset double box like the one shown in their DYI info for...
Are there any guidelines for the safest stitching configuration for sewing Dutch clips to the ends of 1" Spider webbing 1.5. For example, box stitch length, box stitch plus cross stitching, cross...

I bought a 10' Superior with the integrated UQ for the following three reasons:
1. I already had a Warbonnet 10' sock to put it in.
2. I have always wanted to try an integrated UQ hammock to reduce...
If it's a fixed setup and weight is not an issue just put an inflatable pad in the hammock. That is guaranteed to cure calf ridge 100%, even with the worst hang angle you can possible come up with....
Welcome back. Good luck with the recovery. About 6 years ago I was on a backpacking trip with a couple of fishing buddies (with a tent because it was an alpine lake just up in the rocks) and we were...
Thanks for your reassurance! I think one thing that may make my experience different from hangers in the flatter parts of the country is that I am usually up in the mountains and often near tree...
Reading through this thread I am conflicted on how I could have such a different experience from all UQ lovers here. I have been using Warbonnet GE hammocks for about 15 years now with an Exped down...
Over the years I have had Brandon at Warbonnet custom make me two different XLC hammocks with a sewn on solid silnylon top rather than a bug net top with just a zipper on one side. One is a 1.7...
Yeah, I am a gram counting backpacker and very aware of weight (since my bones and knees are getting old). I got the premium high tech lite options also. I think the 30* netless started at around 23...
I have a Superior 10' 30* netless and used it a few times this summer inside a Warbonnet 10' travel sock I happened to have around. For a 10' hammock I liked the lay and was warm in the 30* version...
OK, that was quick. Shoot me a message and I will give you my paypal account name.
Thanks
For sale: Dutch 11' .51 dyneema asym tarp. Color translucent olive green, 11' ridge line, 106" width from ground tieput to ground tieout. Weight with dyneema stuff sack is 3.3 oz without rigging or...
OK, sorry for the delay, I was up at the Bavarian Village of Leavenworth having a late lunch and wine with my daughter and son-in-law. I prefer payment via paypal, send me a PM and I will give you my...

I have a bunch of fleas that I have spliced yellow zing-it continuous loops into. I will mail you 3 for $25.
Actually, I had a brief but refreshing moment….I have struggled for years trying to get it right with top quilts and under quilts. Finally, someone was admitting that also. But no, it was all a cruel...
I still have the 1.7 with sewn on top cover that I withdrew because I discovered a small hole in the fabric. I will sell that but you have to know what you are getting. You can email my anytime.
I am curious, what did you find wrong with the one I offered to sell you? It had only been used one time. I got in trouble with the mods for selling it to someone else, but that was because you...
I got a txt from him this morning saying he still has it and wants to sell, but needs to locate it in his garage. That is being slowed down by the fact that his elderly mother back in Ohio is...
Ok, he says he still has it, but I don't remember if it is a single layer or double layer and if the top zips all the way off. Or if it is a 10' of XL. He should have the specs by tomorrow.
BTW,...
I had one of those and sold it to a friend and I don't think he has ever used it even once. Let me check with him.
OK, photos added. Also, I shortened the ridge line by about half an inch to give more headroom inside the hammock, so the top cover is not drum tight. But I did the shortening by tying a small knot...
OK, will try to get them up soon
For sale, WBBB XLC that I had custom made. The body is single layer 1.7 and it has a sewn on solid top cover made out of 1.1 that zips on the left side only. It is a standard lay with head left and...
I have a WBBB XLC that I had them custom made for me that I could let go. The body is single layer 1.7 and it has a sewn on solid top cover made out of 1.1 that zips on the left side only. It is a...
Welcome. I am in Wenatchee and am a retired full time day hiker, backpacker, skier. I own at least 6 hammocks and prefer to hang, but I also go out with a couple of guys that are not only ground...
Welcome Rusty! Happy hanging.
Freestone I am also in Wenatchee and most of my hiking buddies are groundhogs, maybe we should hike Saddle Rock sometime and talk about hanging.
