Hi, Ash, seat belt material would work but would definitely be overkill.

Here's a link to Tier Gear's tree straps for your reference:

I made my own (well, I bought and cut, my wife sewed) from straps bought from Lincraft for a couple of dollars a metre.

Most people use 25mm (1-inch) width - a good compromise between tree protection and tieability.

Hey Chris, thanks for that, I actually have some straps at home that look pretty similar, will just need to get some loops put in em.

To protect the trees, 25mm wide tie-down straps can be used for the time being....just tie a bowline in one end, wrap around the tree trunk a few times & pass the hook end through the bowline loop. Then tie your rope off to that.
Or sacrifice the hook by cutting if off, just add another bowline loop to that end, melt the cut edge with a lighter to stop fraying.

Later on...Aussie made.

I should have said ratchet straps....thought you might've had a couple of spare ones handy after tying your canoe down to your vehicle.

Have fun on your next hang.

Hard to tell looking at the pics on my phone. Are you already using 1 inch webbing straps from DD?

Welcome, from Florida.

It's sure a blast seeing the expanse of the Hammocking Community.
