Garden hammock rig

[sausage100uk]

Being treeless our garden was in dire need of some hammockification... one trip to wickes and an hours building and hey presto one hammock rig. Time to test my new down underquilt....

how did you stabilise it?

Ditto - also how much did it cost in total?

There are two guys on each end at 45 degrees, it self tensions when you get into it. all forces working against each other (in theory) ill let you know if it collapses tonight 😃😄

I'd be tempted to put some outriggers on it just in case the pegs on the guys pull out.

you sleeping in it tonight? if you used big enough stake into the ground and strong lines i dont see why it would fail

id like one of those











and a garden to put it in

When I say guys I actually mean 250kg breaking strain webbing attached to 10mm steel bars driven into the ground..

Definitely taking it for a test drive tonight...

ahh, sorted then, bet your well please

looks a cool setup, cool as in Fonzy and cool as in shaded

Looks very nice, but for stability, except I would add extensions at the top crossbar and side plates made ​​of wood.

What a good idea - very impressive
