Mozzie net

[Wild Planet Tramp]

Hi all, just wondered if anyone could point me in the right direction of a Mozzie net which is designed to just drape from a ridgeline over a hammock. Ive bought two nets now and both are not designed to be hung this way, although i can still use them but only if im sleeping on the ground.

Use a couple of small pebbles to form buttons, then tie the buttons to the ridgeline.

Youre talking about the style Ray Mears uses with his eco-hammock?
You can buy them from pyramid up in scotland. If they'll sell you one for £25-£30
They dont advertise them, but If you give them a call, they have a batch of them just sitting around.
They may or may not be midge proof though.....

yeah that's the one im on about, they seem a bit rare for some reason, maybe because alot of hammocks come with nets built in these days? ok il check that place out, seems a bit pricey though, maybe i can fashion one out of something myself.

cheers

yeah nice vid mate, but nothing about mozie nets, this ones about making a cape out of a blanket.
