    What is your favorite informative thread,,,,

    Well inquiring minds want to know... some here stand above others... its a good question... making a tarp lighter etc...
    There was an Old Man with a owl,
    Who continued to bother and howl;
    He sat on a rail, And imbibed bitter ale,
    Which refreshed that Old Man and his owl
    .WOO

    Off topic, but just read about the red feather of the British in 1777 Battle of Paoli.

    New guy here. I really like the DIY threads. I'm a tinkerer by nature so "homemade" has a certain draw.

    I used to devour the info about hammock suspension. But now that I've tried many, and settled on one, Then I focused on improving my cook kit. I then headed for the 'tarp suspension' info. However, I think I've 'perfected' my tarp system and cook kit so now I spend a lot of time checking out the backpack threads. And...I always check the posts about my favorite hammocks...and...the paddling threads. Oh, and the 'For Sale' stuff. OK, I guess no favorite thread...

    I totally agree. Not nec DIY stuff but more how to use (ok, maybe mod) existing hammocks, suspensions, etc.
    Every experience God gives us,
    every person He puts in our lives,
    is the perfect preparation
    for the future that only He can see.

    One of the most revolutionary threads was the first post by ZA206 when he introduced hammock campers to constriction based hammock suspensions. A moment that will live in infamy for all hammock days: https://www.hammockforums.net/forum/...ead.php?t=9021

    Not long after SlowBro took the time to teach everyone how to build Whoopie slings:
    https://www.hammockforums.net/forum/...ead.php?t=9349

    Just a few weeks later we became the first vendor to sell whoopie slings and as anyone can see it has just ballooned from there. Those threads changed many things in the hammock suspension world.
