Here is one of the great things about the cottage vendors in this community: they not only permit, they actively encourage folks to take their designs and make them for themselves as DIY. Latherdome puts a section on his blog about DIYing the Tensahedron hammock stand; then he comes on this forum and gives suggestions and advice for people building their own - and I've seen the same from other folks in this community. The only time we see anyone getting into copyright infringement legalities is if someone takes a cottage vendor's design, copies it, and starts trying to sell it as their own - which I think anyone would agree is no bueno. But making it for yourself? As much as you like - and they'll even help you.

Fantastic.

I love this place.
