Hi All - so having got my hammock from the recent group buy I need some advice please on modifying it in line with the set up shown in the download section on Bushblades tutorial.
I took a look at the DD Hammocks modification section and this shows (I think) what I would like but before cutting tapes I need to know I'm doing the right thing before I go and mess it up. This is the DD Hammock picture for reference.
If I bunch the hammock ends up by pulling the cord ends from either side should I can cut the tape long enough to tie a loop - number 1 in the DD diagram. This means that I won't be able to flatten the hammock out again though - does this even matter? I can then clip my karabiner into the loop and connect the other length of cut tape to it.
I know it seems fairly simple but it's the permanent bunching thing that makes me wonder since I'm not sure it would go back in the stuff sack. Any advice welcome.
Gibbo.
