whoopie slings

[barking badger]

bought some dyneema so i could have a go at making some whoopie slings. put a locked brummel on one end, put a burry on the other end so it cant pull through
i will be hanging the hammock tomorrow see if it holds. have told the missus she can try it first....lol

Looking good, they don't look strong enough but they'll never let you down

I always get this when people see my hammock strung up... "You trust that thin chord?" But when I tell them that it breaks at over 700kg, they are amazed...
I think they are a great addition to my hammock set up.

Looking good mate. It's a slippery slope this 'making your own gear lark'. You'll be making your own hammock next!
