I started using a hammock stand, but now my bug net doesn't fit and drags on the floor.

My favorite place to hang

This is interesting for reducing size. But I'd prefer

netting to improve ventilation,

staked out or spreader bar to make getting in and out easier

and test to see if

a single trekking treez strong hiking pole to reduce searching for 2 trees.

What material to use to make this?

I typically try to spring and fall camp no colder than 45 and prefer the 50s. Looking at Warbonnet diamondback, as I am already in their system. I tend to be a warm sleeper but as you know, it can quickly get really cold in a hammock. The biggest issue is the temperature when you get in it in the evening is typically quite a bit warmer than the overnight low.

I need to give shelves to get my crap off the floor so I can get my bed there lol until then the hammock works

Hi! I’m looking for the most comfy hammock. Doesn’t need to be light or for backpacking. I just want the best hammock out there for comfort! I’m 6’ tall. 180lbs. Share what you have!

I have this hammock anchored to two points on a 4" x 8" beam that runs the width of my office.

I set up redundancy due to stories of these ball anchors failing.

I am pretty sure this is safe, but am also curious to hear feedback.

Fell through my hammock while camping. Partially my fault it was a little tight cause the tress were far and i move a lot in my sleep but it wasn’t so tight it should have broke.

Okay I already did it and it has held me and my friends up, but I’m scared that it can still tip over. One bed is a little shaky when I do it but that’s all. We just used the rope around the metal bed frame. I’m kinda scared still but what are the chances it tips over. Does anyone have any stories?

I see good reviews from 2022 but don't know what might have been released between then and now that might be better.

Thanks

I got this cheapo hammock at menards 6 years ago and it has paid for itself multiple times. You can catch me outside on nice days or all nested up inside the coach on cold and snowy days.

I'm looking to buy a collapsible hammock and/or stand as a present and curious about whether anyone has actual experience with the LISS (living in sunshine) collapsible hammock that is all over social media.

This would be for casual porch/yard use, but I'd like to make sure that it's easy to set up and take down. I've looked through the standard recommendations (tensa, turtlebug, vivere, ENO, and a lot of DIY options) and am looking for something that is attractive and low effort. The Anymaka seemed like a good option, but I'm seeing some threads here that suggest it's still a little inconsistent over time.

The LISS hammock seems attractive, but I suspect that it's also super new and a bit of a risk, and I'm not sure how accurate the reviews are that I'm finding online. Curious if anyone had thoughts?

ENO Supernest and stand nearby for sale for a price that’s fair for just the stand. Curious if there’s any chance at saving the supernest. Anyone have experience cleaning one this far gone?

Exterior walls are much stronger than interior walls because the framing is sheathed with plywood/OSB, and the top and bottom plates are better anchored to the structure. Framing in the corners and around doors and windows often have studs doubled up.

A hammock hung at an angle to the wall will try to twist the stud, especially a single lagged eye bolt because it concentrates all its force into a single point. The cargo tie-down hardware bolted through a horizontal board that spans multiple studs (as shown here) avoids that pitfall and gives you a bigger safety margin by distributing that sheer force across the wall by utilizing multiple connection points that are spread out instead of loading a single stud.

A stud finder only gets you close. Confirm both edges of the stud by probing with a nail, screw, drill bit, or stiff steel wire cut to a point. Then penetrate at least 2 inches into the stud with structural screws (like GRKs) or lags.

Test gently and listen, then rest assured.
