I was looking at the hiking dad bridge hammock tutorial. Has any one scaled it up for tall side sleepers? (I guess a little longer and wider?) if so what dimensions did you use, and how did it turn out? Thanks for the help!

FYI: If you want to know what type a certain bear is, sneak up behind it and kick it. Then,
run like crazy and climb up a tree. If the bear climbs the tree and eats you, it's a black
bear. If the bear just pushes the tree over and eats you, it's a grizzly bear : )
Do not walk behind me, for I may not lead. Do not walk ahead of me, for I may not follow. Do not walk beside me, either, just leave me alone.

Bic has a pretty good diy tutorial on UTube
I used his pattern measurements and enlarged them
Turned out pretty good and not hard to do
Hi Steve,
I have been working on a larger version, the Comfort Bridge Mk II version build, with diagram, was posted here:

I have just finished the prototyping of the MK III version which is focusing on being simpler ... but at least this gives you a start point to consider.

Did you use his measurements, or make it bigger?Originally Posted by Redfish

Brian , I tried to make one of your bridges a few years ago. Not sure what dimensions I used but it was too short and too narrow. (Love what youve done with the design! Beautiful hammock!)

mmm ... maybe, but I only posted it last June . There is a schematic a few posts in ... it is designed for up to a 7' person and uses a 43" front bar with a shallower arc to help with side sleeping, so if it was too short and too narrow, you may be confusing it with another post.

Its very possible I have my hammocks mixed up- there are so many! So what were the dimensions u used for a 7 foot side sleeper?
