At home I'm a side sleeper. In my hammock I sleep on my back because well....thats the only position I can lay in, in my hammock.
I'm curious to the design you mentioned. I need to check that!...
Thanks for you're detailed and explanation!
I was wondering if fabric has a bearing in CF. My first night was horrible. After some videos from shug and a lot of experimenting at home I found a good...
Okay, thanks for the tip. And when you say a little extra width, how much would you suggest?
Because if it's a few inches I can use the 1.2 MTN XL fabric.
I don't mind ordering an extra yard so I...
Thanks!
According to that chart I need a 72" wide hammock. I guess 1.2 MTN XL is out of the question.
Then it's HyperD, 1.7 mtn xl or dutches wide fabric.
The chart says a 11ft hammock but by just...
Hi all!
I know this is probably a frequently asked question, but I would appreciate some advice.
I made a 11ft 1.6 HyperD hammock 2 years ago. I have done a couple of trips now and I noticed that...
I think so.
I just don't understand what the "close up" picture is for..

If you mean the edge binding bit, then yes you fold the grossgrain over the edge of the quilt. Leaving enough room to run shock cord trough.
Picture : yellow is fabric, purple grossgrain, blue...

To be honest I was surprised how easy it was. Tarp and hammock took me a day I think to complete. But I did watch the Video's of jellyfish a lot before starting so I had a pretty good idea what I...
Thanks all,
I think I'll change the peak bag. Or I going to make it smaller, or the opening lower. Its a bit difficult to reach the opening. Other option is making it adjustable with a cord and a...

That looks great! Nice work.
I would love to see the pattern / dimensions you used.
Thanks!!
Made some accessories this afternoon ;)
Peak bag with side opening so it closes on itself under weight.
A ridgeline loft (is that the correct term?)
And a double ended stuff sack. ...
Thanks!

Thanks!
Without forums like this and post from tacblades, jellyfish etc I wouldn't have been able to do this.
It's great fun making this.
Next up is a tarp made from membrane silpoly ;)
...
Nice! And just in time ;) I just finished my hammock last weekend and I have 8 yards of membrane silpoly lying around for a tarp.
This is a great design thanks!

Hi All,
I finished my hammock last weekend. After a lot of reading on this forum I decided on how I wanted to make it.
It's based in the design of jellyfishreport.blogspot.com nova hammock.
But...
Well it took some time... But I ordered my fabric from ripstopbytheroll.com
1.6 hyperd for the hammock.
I'm going to try the pattern made by jellyfish but then as a single layer.
The nova hammock...
Yes we play occasionally ;)
Good point!
Yes the myog bug bit me a while back. Since I've made 5 backpacks 2 tents 3 quilts..... And the 6th backpack is under the sewing machine now.
I'm always planning a next build. And...
Hi,
Yes there are a lot. But made it more difficult for me to decide on something :)
This exactly the info I wanted. Some on the rigging and a pattern for the hammock. It looks beautiful! I'm...
Thanks!
I came across you're channel doing some research.. Brilliant resource!
As a hammock guide / pattern
Is this a good one? ...
Hi All,
I recently made an underquilt for a forum buddy. He showed me some photos of his hammocking trips and that got me thinking on trying it out myself 😊
I could use some help on this. There...
