    Whooohoo...

    ...My whoopie slings from UK Hammocks arrived this morning! Am i right in thinking it's easier to remove the webbing from the ends of the hammock & attach the whoopie slings by threading them through & making a larks hitch? I've got drip rings from TW Hammocks too, so how would I attach...

    Coleman Tarp @ Millets

    Hey all, just came across this on the Millets website: Coleman Universal Shelter - thought this could have a few uses, like an extra tarp for a cooking area...at 3.75m x 2m with an added 1.4m pole, it doesn't seem bad for the price of £20...

    Paracord Lanyard

    Made this for my ex's son for his dog whistle - he's a keen dog trainer...odd combination of colours but was at his request as he's a Saints (St Johnstone) fan :)

    Size of tarp for hammock?

    Hi all, I've just purchased an uprated double zip Green Hornet from TW Hammocks, and I was wondering what size of tarp would be suitable? The hammock is quoted on the TW website as being 2.8m long - would a 3m tarp suffice to provide protection from the elements? (I'm a complete newb to hammocks...
