  • I think high end smasnugs do that. But yeah same, I have a Chromecast and I just sling stuff to the TV. Its tuner hasn’t been used in a decade.

    Speaking of decade… I should probably upgrade that thing. But it’s big enough, dark enough (LDC, but at least not a crappy LCD), and high enough resolution for it’s size and distance from my couch (1080, 50 inches, 10 or 15 feet) that I just can’t justify replacing it. I wish it would die already lol.

    Maybe if I move and get a big enough bedroom, I’ll put it in there, and upgrade to something with HDR. I really wanna get in on some good HDR. Seems like it’s getting really good and really affordable if you buy the right thing.
































  • That’s a lot of info packed into one comment! Wow!

    Ok so, that bug net, how does it work? It looks like there would be a big gap between your body and the top edge of the hammock walls? I can’t wrap my head around this.

    Also I had never heard of a bridge hammock. Very cool design, I’d like to see how one feels.

    And finally, I can’t picture how your put it up in the rain style hammock would work, but I love the enthusiasm. And I’ve never heard of ripstopbytheroll! I made an account, but the projects seem to just be pictures? Are there no instructions? At any rate, this has SERIOUSLY piqued my interest, and I’m contemplating making my own hammock now 🤣

    It’s a problem because I already own so many, but really only one of them is the proper length for me to sleep in while hiking. The rest I mostly just enjoy setting up while glamping, so people can hang out and chat.



  • Speaking of flat ground, have you looked into tensa style hammock stands? The idea is that with 4 lightweight collapsible aluminum poles, a couple stakes, and some careful movements, you can hammock on flat ground, sans trees.

    I’ve been meaning to build one from wood to play with the idea at home, but haven’t found the time.

    I really like hammocking, and have no desire to buy into a tent/pad, etc for trips that have no trees. Specifically thinking of the Grand canyon eventually. It might be worth it to me to bring the extra weight if the poles, not sure yet.
