    A few picture of your WBRR UQP please

    I’d like to see how the Argon 90 fabric used by 2QZQ for their RR UQP hangs under the Ridge Runner. I know it has to hang down a little to let things breathe, but I don’t want it to hang down too much - like if your RR is 18 inches off the ground, how close is the UQP to the ground? Is the Argon 90 fabric UQP just about right are far as how it hangs.

    In order to see what few have seen, you must go where few have gone. And DO what few have done.

    This is my DIY version for my ridge runner. Never had an issue with it "dragging" the ground.

    Thank you for the photos. I have an older model and it is quite a bit lower. The RR is used by someone who is ant/spider/any crawly critter adverse and when waking from sleep, can’t tell if something is inside or outside the net. It is difficult to keep the larger/older UQP off the ground. Looks like there is room for even more “lift” on the Argo 90 = which is about 55 inches wide.

    I’m trying to get a sense of how narrow it can be while not crowding the Lynx UQ.

    TNhunter. Thank you for taking the extra effort but I have already specified how much extra material I’ll have taken out. The UQP I had was version 1.0 and later versions were 10 inches narrower (mostly because of using a different fabric than a specific measurement).

    So All Done; additional data/photos not needed.

    When the UQ’s come back, I’ll see how they hang. There was so much droop, I took 16 inches out - but 10 of that just made them equal to the standard width now.

    Not sure if this will help.
    I used a standard 2QZQ UQP for a gathered end hammock and it worked perfectly on my bridge hammock.
    To be honest I found nothing unique about the bridge dimensions. All my gathered end stuff, encluding all my under quilts, worked with my bridge and they required no mods.
    That said if you have a stormcrow UQ with the leg shelf that won't work there will be a gap.

    It is too much work to post a bunch of picts from flicker so here my folder on the bridge lots of UQP shots and I even modified a warbonnet bridge sock to work with my BMBH. hth

    My DIY UQP is 54" x 101" (after hemming and channels). I have a roll hem along the sides with a channel for some shock cord that runs for about the middle 1/2 of the sides. The shock cord comes out through a button hole in the middle of the UQP on each side. Along the ends is a channel sewn for a shock cord through each end.
