    Watching Netflix from the hammock

    I recently built a turtledog stand, and I am getting ready to hang full time for a few months while I'm on the road. Seeing that the hammock will be all of my furniture I wanted to be able to watch Netflix while laying down. I had some extra zingit laying around so I tied up a sling to attach my iPad to the ridgeline.







    So far it seems like it's working great. Although I need to work out a way that lets me take the iPad out easily.

    How about a cup holder + doritos holder?

    I'd give me about 30 seconds after I rolled into the hammock. Takes about that long to snuggle in and take a good deep breath. Then it's lights out. ;-)

    I do the same thing with those rubber coated gear ties. 2 of them lock the ipad in place nicely. For Christmas I received a bluetooth speak that gets dropped into the shelf. i almost feel guilty hanging and warching a flick. Almost...

    Love it! On car camping trips I find my arms get tired of holding the tablet up in the air in front of my face – I'll have to try this sometime.
