DD Hammock Mod

[MartinK9]

Yep the sleeve really helps out when showing the hammock into the stock stuff sack - whether purchased or home-made like Martin's. I think the best bit is what Napakettu points out - it's a bit of a pain stowing the hammock especially if it's wet. This has to be my #1 mod!! Though very closely followed by Martin's DIY frontline - I may well have a bash at this one. Slightly off topic I'm extremely excited at the prospect of spending next week in my DD at a Bushcraft Expeditions Fundamental course - 1st course for me and I cannot wait to get down there!!

Have a great time javi

Cheers topknot, I thought the designs by DD were great but I couldn't justify the cost of new kit so needs must.

Only a week to go to test them, out at a Meet at Swift Valley so I'll put some more pictures up of them in use.

Update - Mods in use at Swift Valley - Both worked extremely well, especially the double zip....

Hey MartinK9 that is amazing,

can your mam do one for me?

I too am sewing machine challenged

Get Mummy to sew in

Total cost £3 for zip and £1 on cotton - Result

And, hopefully, a large bouqet of flowers for your mum or, as an alternative, a couple of weeks of decent behaviour!
this will ensure the cooperation when other projects are to be sewn.

Sorry, that was a one off deal for me last year

I flew the nest 25 years ago so, no chance of decent behaviour
