No matter how I hang my hammocks, feet high head low and others scenarios, when I get settled into the comfy spot my feet always end up at the edge of the hammock. I would like to add an integrated bugnet to one of my hammocks and feel that this may create issues once the net has been added. Any suggestions as how to remedy this? I hoping I have missed the obvious.
Hammocks are 11' - 58" wide

Looks pretty normal to me. Then again, I've never tried to add an integrated bugnet to a simple, gathered-end hammock. I prefer Fronkey-style independent bugnets.

I think the net holds everything in better.
Get lost in the woods and find yourself again. A vacation,to me, is working with your hands and surviving because of the fruits of your labor. In the business world I teach;in the natural world I learn.
The net will definitely hold things in. Not a Utopia for me, though. Like SilvrSurfr, I prefer a separate bugnet.
I have the same issue and often kick my feet over the edge, and I don't like it. Will make a wide hammock from Dutch's Hexon 1.6W soon and see how that helps. Adding a footbox (like TZBrown and Hangnout, among others, have done should keep everything in place should you not go integrated net.

I've gone to find myself. If I get back before I return, make sure I stay here.

Wider hammock with KMs will fix that

Thought about the footbox also. Not totally forsure on the attached bugnet either, have looked at the other bugnet options. Kinda of leaning to making something like the Sheltowee net. Going to make a wide hammock at some point as well, so a separate net would work for all my hammocks.Originally Posted by Otter1

I added a KM to my DIY with so-so results. Footbox would probably be a better fix for me if I don't add the net

Try a shockcord pullout on the footend where your feet are.
Carry forth.

I sew things on youtube.
I don’t sew on commission, so please don’t ask. Thanks.
