    How is this different from the Handy Hammock from England? Looks exactly the same!

    I have used these zippers on a DIY hammock to make a dual-entry removable bug net that can be switched to a top cover. They work great, and they are strong and light.

    As far as I know Handy Hammock is not available anymore. NoGrounds also act as hiking poles and bridge speaders. That is a big difference.

    I have no idea on that but the NoGround takes the concept a bit further with them acting as hiking poles and bridge speaders.

    Yes I've got mine too, went right for a full set since I too want to hang in meadows.

    Very important to guy out the tarp extension the way Shug is, or you'll pull the plug out of the tube. In fact if you look at Shug's pic you can see the tarp extension is at an angle

    I am waiting for Cheryl's video of how she does the tarp extension.......I was just winging it but it needs the support. She has the lines built into the hammock support guylines to accomadate the tarp guyline for support and strength.
