Awesome. Thank you. As for your grandfather thankfully our country is a better place because of men like him. An honor to see you taking time to save some history and teach people
Look at the wear on those eyelets! I bet that hammock could tell many tales of it's service life; the missions, counties, battles, storms etc. Never change them!
I think it's so nice that you have taken the time to learn how to do that to preserve your grandfather's WWII US Navy hammock. Nice work! 🙌👍🇺🇸
I`ve been trying for years to find out how these were made and your instructions pop up ,Thank you . I`ve now shared your instructions on various veteran sites as a lot of them are self sufficient and this adds to the knowledge base . The only thing missing is a quick guide to dimensions of material ,spacing of eyelets on the canvas and maybe if possible ,the quality grade of canvas available today. . Apart from that ,you have done an excellent presentation with clear concise instructions and views .
O hope to make a video before the end of summer on the hammock canvas construction. The finished dimensions of the canvas are 39" wide and 80"long. The eyelets are evenly spaced.
Amazing ! thank you very much .Exaclty what I was looking for , on time .
Excellent instruction. Thank you.
Wow! It's Wonderful. Thank you so much!
Hello my friend.
Dating from the Second World War. Hamaka ring donning. Good idea. Decorative design. Thank you.
Great greetings.
Happy Easter.
Amazing steps .
I like it .
Great job, I am going to make one
O gancho mais fácil que eu já vi,muito boom 👍
Hola Nate, antes que nada quiero felicitarte por reconstruir la hamaca que se utilizaba en la segunda guerra mundial. Yo soy una abuela de casi 70 años y me imagino con cuánto amor lo hiciste, para mantener viva la memoria de tu abuelo. Estamos en una extensa cuarentena + de 100 días, por el coronavirus, me entretuve viendo los dos vídeo y lo disfrute mucho, pues me encantan las manualidades y así llegué a tu canal. Abrazo enorme. Te saludo desde la República Argentina.
Gracias por sus amables comentarios.
this is a super cool project.
*clew
Awesome video, along with the clew video.
I think quick release nature of the individual piece of rope secure with larks foots knots.I think that this was to enable the hammock to be used to wrap a deceased sailor in. They did this in Nelson’s time in the Royal Navy.
I think you are right
Thanks for the video, very helpful, will be making one.
Glad it was helpful!
This is a fantastic video. A fun project. I am curious about the dimentions of the WWII canvas hammock. The finished dimentions...the 'fold over' for the grommetts...the fold over on each side... the size of the grommets. I would like to reproduce your grandfather's dimentions as close as possible. Thank you for your jig video for building the clew, thank you for the clew construction video, and thank you for this video that ties them together. This is fantastic. ☺
I would also like to know the dimensions of the canvas bed. Looks like a fun project to try.
Wow....manila hemp from philippines....
Abaca in ours
Muy buen tutorial
Excellent!!!!
Благодарю вас, я этому научилась!!! Ура)))
great video! 🙌🏻
🙌
Thanks very much
Thank you.
Thank you for posting these videos. All of my uncles were in the Navy but during the Viet Nam war. My Grandfathers were both in WWII in the Army. I would like to know what the weight limit would be on this. I feel that this is an art that is slowly going away. But with Paracording coming into popularity maybe it will come back.
Thankyou forte the Time 👍
Donde puedo consegir esa hamaca con argollas. Contestar por favor
Hi Nate, a squirrel decided to use the clew as a chew toy. Any advice appreciated. These 2 videos r done very well, you make it look so easy. It doesn't have grommets, it has an area similar to seam you'd feed elastic thru w holes for clew ends. Can i use the the rope like u did but feed it thru the seam & wrap the ends around it similar to what u did? Any ideas? I have couple pics but YT won't let me put them in comments.
for home use replace the rope with a wooden rod
btw a wonderfull project
Nice
👍
Hello, great guide :), I have a question, what dimensions does the material have? I want to make the same chamak, but I would like to make it for 2 people. I am going to hang it between wooden beams in the room, the distance of the beams is 3.6m, the beams are at a height of 2m. I wonder what length I will need material. I think the hammock will hang down a meter. What is the length of the cord from the metal ring up to the attachment in the material?
The length of the cord when made into a clew using my jig is 20 1/2" (~52cm) a few more inches will be added for the ring that it is attached to.
Liked and Subscribed, are there any videos out there about sleeping in a navy hammock? Not seeing any on a Utube search... how about a review on how to set up and how it sleeps, considering a similar hammock for my small boat, maximum hang height of 3ft...
I don't have one of these, but I do have one that's a very similar style, and the reason there aren't many videos about sleeping in them is probably because they're really, really easy to sleep in.
I don't think I've ever fallen out of mine, and it's really comfortable.
What are the dimensions of the actual hammock, Length by width? Is it a simple rectangle or is there any shaping to it.
It is a rectangle. The finished dimensions of the canvas are 39" wide and 80"long
Thank you!
@Randy Welsh I'm not 100 % sure but it is a very heavy weight. I would think it is at very least a number 6. I hope to id the weight by the end of the year
I know the US Navy used to publish a 'Blue Book' of Procedures for seamen. I'm wondering if there may be a section in there on how to attach hammocks? Thanks.
I purchased "The Bluejackets' Manual" 14 edition and did not find anything about hammocks. Maybe an earlier edition has info on this subject. Anyone know?
Great
Hello Nate. Greetings from Australia. Is there any chance of seeing this Hammock hanging from a tree or a frame please? I'm interested to see if it "cocoons" the occupant or not,. Considering that it doesn't have a "spreader beam" at each end of the clew. Or is it just the case that the design of the clew stops this from happening? Thank you in advance!
It defiantly has a cocoon feel, I believe this is to keep a user from falling out while asleep on a rocking ship.
You may want to look into purchasing a 1940 Navy Blue Jacket Manual. That should have information on the Hammocks in it. Fair winds, and following seas to your Grand Father, from one sailor to another.
I will. Thank you. I'm so grateful for suggestions like this because you don't know what you don't know.
Also just finished ordering it.
Good stuff, Nate. I hope you will replace the nylon nettles with the proper material. If you really want to preserve the hammock, always save the old so others can compare the original with the replacement.
I do want to restore it with the proper cordage. And I am saving all parts. I would like to find out more info on the type of canvas, the canvas is heavy and thick.
@@natelarge
As you may know, canvas is weighed in ounces per square yard and if I recall correctly the canvas I used was in the 10 to 12 oz. range. In the vid your bag looked a bit heavier. Most of the canvas shops will have sample pieces on the counter for comparison. That's what I did. Good luck and keep us posted!
Thank you for the information. I did not know that about canvas. There is a lot I'm still learning and I appreciate the help.
@@dpeter6396 I got samples and I believe the canvas is at min a number 4 (24oz) very possibly a number 1 (~27oz)
Great!🇧🇷👏👏👏
The finished dimensions of the hammock are 39" wide 80" long.
I believe the canvas is at minimum a #4(24 oz) duck canvas.
The clew rope is a I believe he clew rope is a 1/4" natural fiber works best
What are the dimensions of the canvas part of the hammock? I want to replicate one. I'm thinking of using a canvas painters tarp and cut and sew it the correct size.
Check out my other video on the canvas th-cam.com/video/kXBAGErzYqM/w-d-xo.html
Is this what she meant when she said I should get one?
Hi! I remade this hammock this week, but when I made my brother test it out (he’s 15kg lighter haha) the eyelets stretched out. Like the hole got bigger. How can I prevent this? And maybe fix it.
Not sure. What weight canvas did you use? My first assumption is that it is an issue with canvas material being too thin or pliable. If you want to send me photo/video DM my IG account I can take a look. @_natelarge
I won’t be at home for a few days so I can’t show you, but I think it might be the material i used yeah.
What material would you suggest? So can remake that part
I'm not sure the weight but a heavyweight canvas, #4 #6 #8 are my best guess. I am going to order some samples to id the correct weight.
That’d be awesome. It doesn’t have to be so strong it can hold a person of 90kg hahaha just durable so it lasts longer than my current one, which has started ripping a bit. It’s not for hammocks at alllll
What are the finished dimensions of the canvas hammock?
check the pinned comment
COOL ;-D :-D
What are the measurements of the cloth part of the hammock?
Check the top comment. Thank you.
Thank you! I am going to be retrofitting a short school bus or a shuttle bus as a tiny home on wheels in the coming year, and I want to make a hammock as a “spare bedroom.” I thought I would have to purchase one ready-made, but thanks to you, I may make one, myself! Thank you again!
want to see the weaving around the ring
