Thank you everyone for the lightning fast ID !
Def a good find at $60!
I knew it wouldnt take long for someone to id it! Last night I clipped it ti the shoulder guy out and it def helped keep it in place. It does seem on the narrow side but i haven't physically ...
I THINK its the head end?At first I had it on the foot end , but I ended up switching it around and now its right by by shoulder.. You can see it in pic #6 and on the left side of pic #2. Its too...
I tried but its not long enough. Right now I have it clipped to the shoulder pull out mini D ring on my HG hammock. Maybe its just to keep it in place? Being so short it doesn't reach to the corner...
Its definitely a nice quilt and very well made. Any ideas on the shock cord w/ mitten hook on the side?
I had HG custom make me a set of -10° quilts and they are amazing! Anything below that and I would stack one of my Phoenix on the bottom, and add in my heavy fleece DIY TQ liner or a 50° TQ inside...
I just bought this DIY UQ on eBay for $60. The seller says he bought it over 7 years ago from the person who made it, but didn't have any info about it at all. I figured that a person who would...
I'm a member of the Amazon Vine program, and about 2 weeks ago I was able to get a pair of Outdoor Vitals down booties. I decided to do a super scientific test by wearing one OV bootie and one...

Lol, no one can ever gave enough HG quilts!
Oh, I will also be doing a review soon on the Snugpak Paratex sleeping bag liner. Its ultra breathable and wicking : perfect for warm weather and could easily be modified into a TQ shape ( which I've...
Thanks for watching, glad I could help! Iirc I just sent Kurt an email and he got back to me super fast. At the time, he didn't have the camo option posted either so he just sent me a PayPal invoice...
Here's the latest addition to my collection :

Mine is a custom short 60" so it comes to just above my shoulders. He makes them in snap or sewn footbox and they...
I recently picked up an awesome 50° TQ from Hemlock Mountain Outdoors : https://hemlockmountainoutdoors.com/collections/hammocks
Here's my review :

Directly from the description : The Headdepleck hammock is light weight,
From the specs : Weight: 16 lbs
Uhh, how is 16lbs lightweight???
Also from the description : Because of its size, the...
Exactly what I was thinking! It kinda looks like a bridge w/o the bars or cat cut sides, but also looks like a short, narrow GE at the same time??? VERY WEIRD to say the least!
I think the baffles are filled with the stuff that's in bean bag chairs, but I could be wrong....

I use Snugfeet by Snugpak, they are synthetic and tall enough to cover part of my calf too. They are super warm and pack pretty small for less than the cost of down.
I use a few different brand, style & temp rated synthetic quilts due to my living right on the Chesapeake bay:

I've had my Snugpak quilts for 6 years now and they are all still...
Buy it now for $95!...
Here's my new stove : the OneTigris Tiger Roar. I got the Superfly over the summer and the stove last week. So far I've used it twice and its burned great!:lol:

I've had a Snugpak Cocoon for several years now. I have used it successfully into the mid 20's on it's own, and into the mid teens with the Snugpak UQ + TQ inside. For me its got enough width to get...
I use the DD Hammocks Magic Carpet XL with my hammocks a lot of times, especially when weight isn't an issue, and use Tyvek or a Grabber emergency blanket/tarp under my tents. TIP : To soften and...
SOLD to Mudsocks !
I bought this a few months ago and upon trying it on, realized the sleeves are just toooo long for me to comfortably wear it. Unfortunately for me, Snugpak had just discontinued this item and stopped...
Here is the link to the other thread on this tarp : https://www.hammockforums.net/forum/showthread.php/160803-New-full-coverage-winter-protection-from-Onetigris-Seems-like-good-price-and-quality. I...
I just started a thread on this as well not realizing someone had already made one. Here is the link...
I have some of the same concerns. I'm almost glad I got my WB hot tent before I saw this. Knowing me and my " impulse spending habits" lol, I would have jumped on it immediately.
Just came across this and thought I'd share it here. Its available for pre-order now at a decent price. What does everyone think :confused:? Im still on the fence since its a new product, but I might...
"If you want a blanket take a fleece fitted sheet and turn it into a liner for the quilt, the fleece feeling will not feel as cold when you climb into the hammock.... so there is less shock to the...
That's awesome! Glad another forum member got it that will truly appreciate its downy goodness! I absolutely LOVE all of my HG quilts: custom -10° 'Bator/extra short sewn Burrow, 20° Bator +4oz/sewn...
I just won on a set of Wilderness Logics Lazy Slug tubes, and had the high bid on a spin drift until today. 5 days to go on it though so we'll see how it plays out.Good luck on the quilt!
Np. A 30° Inferno UQ from Sierra Madre just went up and so did a JRB UQ. Good luck!

I've got a few vids on my YT channel that might help : https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCdlR64khg0auvnVhQ3zRTNQ?view_as=subscriber
I've had success stacking quilts on my RR to achieve lower temps. Here's a vid I did that shows how I do it, but this is only one way.

I've modified a $7 Ozark Trail bag liner from Wal-Mart into a TQ liner, and also modified my Snugpak Thermalon bag liner as well. You can see them in this vid that I did on different bag liners...

If you need a tester, I nominate myself lol.
I think your absolutely right. I felt zero air flow with the windows closed so condensation will absolutely be an issue when it gets colder. It will be interesting to see if it can be useful at all,...
