How do I hang a hammock in the back garden?

[pwb]

I'd need some kind of frame 'cos the trees along outside the fence would only give one end to tie to.

Found this method of hanging a hammock on 'Hammock Forums' .

Using an A frame and one tree, looks good, speaking as a none hammock owner ...yet .

@Woodsmoke
I mean using strainers is excessive, didn't want people to go away thinking they needed 11' strainers and concrete bases as a minimum. I've never been near a set of scales in years but I'm 6'5" and fairly hefty so likely north of 18st. The shorter posts without concrete do me just fine.

I put mine under the trampoline a while ago just make sure theres no-one around to jump on you or laugh as you attempt to crawl under the trampoline to get uin the hammock

Handy when you have a carport Designed and built from scratch btw

Also good for testing out new setups.

A couple of summers ago I built the kids a shed/playhouse. This year I rebuilt the dog kennel and run. By shear chance (wink wink) the distance between playhouse and dog run is just right to hang my hammock......BLISS zzzzzz
