Mozzy Net

[Bushcraftsman]

Does anyone know where I can get a dirt cheap mozzy net to use with my DD hammock in the summer when all the midges and other beasties are out?

thanks

looks great, could I use it with my hammock?

There aren't many out there to be honest, I found one made by Fox last year but I'm struggling to find it at the moment. Hennies used to sell it so maybe give them a ring, it's the one shown on here ....

I think it was around £40

I had one of the old group buy ones which worked really well, thinking about it they'd be dead easy to make. The price of materials isn't too bad either ..

Avoid the pyramid or boxed ones as they just don't work with a hammock.

I reckon with a bit of sewing you could adapt it - this one will fit a double bed, so plenty to work with.

Can't edit my post but I've just found the Fox one here .....

A lot more expensive than what I remember though

Warbonnet Outdoors sell one but it'd be £50+ I'd say so might be out of budget.

If you have a sowing machine you could knock one up yourself using the dimensions from JustJeff's hammock sock page.

how they actually fit round your hammock without leaving any gaps for the beasties to get in? because surely if the ropes that suspend your hammock have to go through then surely the net will be open at the head and foot ends? :S or am i missing some obvious design feature?
