I finally finished my portable hammock stand.....right before it started raining
This stand is based on warbonnetguy's, Sgt. Rock's, and Jazilla'a hammock stands and drawings. The base is 10' long and the angled uprights are 5'.
Takes about 7-8 minutes to setup. Here's how it works:
This is the stand broke down for transportation. It easily fits in the 6' bed of my Toyota pickup. Breaks down into 2 pieces:
The first step is to couple the 2 sections of the stand together in the middle:
Next the 4 feet flip out:
Then the uprights flip up:
The final step is to bring the braces down and tighten all the bolts:
Here's the finished stand with a hammock to give you an idea of size:
