#hammock
Journalism is printing what someone else does not want printed -- everything else is public relations.
-- George Orwell
I've been camping in my original "cheap" #hammock for eight years (let's say 100+ nights) and it has never let me down. Materials aren't high tech and I've done a few repairs, but nothing serious. I'm 6' 2" and weigh between 200 and 210 pounds depending on how much pasta I have access to... 
I've had two #hammocks from major brands (Hennessey and #Kammok). The Henn. hammock was almost unusable due to the knot-based suspension and asymmetrical tarp. I got rid of it. 
I really like my Kammok. But even with that premium hammock, I had to correct a defect in manufacture and I've been repairing small rips, etc. along the way.

My main complaint about the Kammok is the fly. It is just barely big enough and has eight (count 'em!) lines. Clearly that's too many. I'm about to attempt remodeling it to use snake skins for packing/unpacking. I'll post here if I'm successful.
Continuing Thread on #HammockCamping
Some #hammocks have an absurd number of lines IMO. The fly in the first photo has eight lines! The netting examples in the second image have four or more lines *before* we even get to the fly!!
I quickly discovered that the netting and fly should be attached to the main straps (so you don't have to round the tree a second time). Exactly how this works will vary depending on the hammock design.

I'm starting a thread on #HammockCamping...
Feel free to comment and even tell me where I'm wrong, or if there's a better solution.
I'll start with the big one... how many lines/ropes/straps should it take to fully pitch a #HammockTent?
I have a strong bias that the answer is no more than four!
I propose a general "Four Point Hammock Suspension Rule" (two straps for the hammock itself (with bug net), no more than two for the rainfly)
Note that the fly does not need to be diamond shaped, this is a general rule-of-thumb.
My point is: if you have more lines you increase complexity, increase time pitching and repacking, decrease access, and have more things to trip over.
Put another way: If you get the same performance with fewer lines, that is a good thing. 
If more lines are required to achieve the same performance, that may indicate a weaker design.

Anyone can become angry. That is easy. But to be angry with the right person, to the right degree, at the right time, for the right purpose, and in the right way -- that is not easy.

#fedisummer_hits_2024 SO: It's summer and you're swinging in this hammock under the shade of the trees. The only thing that you can hear is the birds and your favorite summer tunes.

The weather has been pretty nice here in my part of Texas. We've got mild temps and unusually low humidity. It's a short window when it's like this here and such a great time to go #camping. It really sucks that it's during our busiest time of the year at work when it's so hard to take time off, if not impossible, to go.
But I really wanna go. I haven't been in a long time. Somebody take me camping!!! I even have this cool hammock with the mesh that keeps the critters out.
See? These photos are from two years ago when I first tested out my #hammock
Still haven't used it. 
Also... do these qualify as ThirstTrapTuesday pics? I mean, I do want to go camping but...
drink up y'all.
Phase 1: Interest in the #fediverse and #mastodon due to <reddit>
Phase 2: Sign-up on an instance
Phase 3: Use mastodon or #bookwyrm or #kbin or #pixelfed and become comfortable
Phase 4 (I am here now): move instances and make a new #introduction
Hi! I am an aging #nerd. I play #boardgames and #videogames. I like to #camp. I sewed my own #hammock for #hammockcamping, #myog style. I like #learning from, but not worshipping, #history.
Phase 5 (maybe?): admin my own instance
New server, new #introduction to pin
I'm Pascal and while I work as a programmer I enjoy my time being offline - playing guitar, bass, making music in general. In 2019 I finished a project which was engraved into my heart for years: I've built a guitar myself - a beautiful blue/green stained Telecaster
Last year I bought a camera to take photos during my trip to Indonesia so expect to see photos incoming.
