Just did a little overnighter in our field testing out my new MYOG hammock. I didnt even cook anything as i went in to eat lol. It was purely just to test it out. The hammock was sporting whoopie slings and toggles from mat at UKhammocks.
I used my tenthwonder tarp with doors which was strung up with loops of zing-it also from UKhammocks. I can thoroughly recommend the loops they are awesome!
I took the Coleman dual fuel Lantern and my Pipe Dream 600. I was toasty as i had my alpkit dirtbag and a reflective windscreen shield.
The Hammock is made of khaki bronze ripstop sold to me by Hugo. Thanks buddy! Its 1.45m wide and 3.5m long. Its dual layered but im not sure that it is better than a single layer. Next project a single layered one. I also need to get some Velcro to shut the layers together. I made a bishop bag for it as well.
Anyways more pics less babble you say?
Here it is!
I did bring the sides down during the night but this was so you could see inside.
This is the hammock!
This is the toggle and the amsteel whoopie sling around it.
Bishop Bag- If you dont know what it is its basically a double ended stuff sack.
I hung up all my stuff on a ridge line suspended under the tarp. It worked very well!
The car windscreen protecter is cheap, thus good for laying all you kit on before packing away.
I hope you enjoyed my report. It was to exciting but i thought id share it with you!
P.s the whoopie slings are amazing and if your thinking about getting some do. Mat has them for £11.50 for a pair!
