    Some of the DIY crowd might want to do this. Or to be more truthful, I HOPE some of our talented DIYers toss out a few photos as an antidote to the mass market stuff that's probably going to show up in response to the invite. Over the years I've seen plenty of really cool photos and videos here on HF and it would tickle me to see them on the site in the link above. Being totally derivative myself with nothing innovative to my name, I'll just observe.

    Agreed that I hope the DIY crowd shares their creations. But I also like seeing the multitude of ways folks come up with to mix and match off-the-shelf gear.

    I feel like I missed an inside joke on this.

    I thought the opening comment about an "antidote to the mass market stuff" was the height of hammock snobbery! As usual, nobody gets my sense of humor.

    Agreed. That was a pretty corny comment

    I'm a hammock bigot, not a hammock snob.

    My poor little hammock is neither innovated or original, the humble Dutch netless with Knotty's mods, but it's the only hammock I have and it's served me well for almost 5 years
