    My DIY Portable Camping Hammock Stand

    Made this this weekend with my pop. Total cost of materials was about $65 and it took us less than an hour. This is my answer to the car camping spots that don't allow hammocks because they consider them to be harmful to the trees. Let me know if you have any questions.

    Nice TurtleDog stand. How are you keeping the legs from spreading or walking without running the cord through them?

    Thanks. I forgot to show that in the video. Holes were drilled but I hadn't run the cord yet. Cord is now on and I am looking forward to trying it out tonight. Next is a TurtleDog Bamboo stand.

    That one would be the TurtleLady stand . I'd like to make that one too, but I can't find affordable bamboo here yet. Glad you didn't have some kind of invisible trick on those legs

    Now I feel like the guy at the dog park that knows the dog's names but not the owners
