Me & My Mom Outfitters proudly presents ๐ This thing has been in the making for a whole year with a lot of difficulties encountered, but it's finally done. The one thing I miss when hammocking is the protected lounging quarters of a tent. But here it is now!
We have a waterproof floor that pegs to the ground, ultralight mosquito net for walls and the roof bit out of monofil fabric. The roof has slots for spreader poles, which I'm still to make out of aluminium. Branches work too. Zipper entry is reinforced with monofil. The tent is supported by the hammock ridgeline and suspension alone, so setup is quick and effortless. The vibe upstairs is rather psychedelic without a tarp on top :D
The hammock is also self made, with a monofil inner layer to carry the load and a slightly longer silnylon outer layer to stop wind and form a little air gap that holds body heat.
Summer vacation has just begun โ adventures await...
It only just got out the sewing machine :D
Stitching is just dense straight stitch all the way. We use Gutermann Mara 70 for thread, never seen it fail in several years in self-made hammocks. I put it on the scale when there was still some extra material on, and it was 725 g. I hope to find it under 700 g now that it is finished.
