    Miniature Hammock for sitting

    Does anyone know of a small hammock designed specifically for sitting? I seem to remember seeing one for sale somewhere that was designed to be used between two trees that are close together for sitting more upright. It was very small and packed down to almost nothing.

    I own this one with cinch buckles. I'd recommend carabiners, soft shackles, or some Dutch clips to quicken the Hang/Unhang.

    I bring it on a lot of day trips but haven't used it a whole lot for some reason.

    I've got a grand trunk ultralight hammock that packs down smaller mainly due to the suspension.

    I bet the AHE hammock chair with a suspension set up along the lines of hammock anchors with dyneema and 4-5' straps would pack up super small.

    The only one that came to mind right off the bat was this one: Amazing Wilderness Camp / Hammock Bushcraft Chair

    My brother ordered one from this guy, but he hasn't used it yet.

    I made one a couple of years ago . They are very easy to make https://www.hammockforums.net/galler...che=1474983293 SEW it like you would a hammock, only a lot smaller. Something like 1/4 inch hem along the whole hammock. Then on the ends fold over and make a channel. Run whoopies through it and boom your done.
    Don't be scared ,it's just a beard.

    really simple. You essentially hang it like a swing.... bonus if you cut a hole in the middle it becomes a toilet hammock :P

    This is just an awesome invention/idea....kudos and great video as well
    Sometimes I like to hike and think, And sometimes I just like to hike.

    Hiking is'ent about waiting for the storm to pass its about learning to hike in the rain.
