Wow! You gave me a great idea! I have the "one wind" hammock wind sock for a hammock. Its already got a mesh window in it. Geez that has way more uses than I ever expected
I read in Rhodesia they had a similar system for sleeping in cause of the heat. The guys would make it out of parachute fabric and some even added webbing to it to be used as a stretcher in case of carrying wounded buddies.
Great video had this project on my mind for years, finally got the parachute silk, with the midge net looks even more useful so I will add it in and get it done now. Thanks for posting.
So what would the 75cm gap be for? And I’m assuming that the bottom is left open, to use as a browse bag. I saw one of the comments that said you were making a draw string set-up for the bottom edge which is a great idea.
Saw this used in another vid and had a looksie, a few seconds into this vid I thought hmm, it's a hammock reverse engineered lol... Spare hammock getting repurposed then lol.
We're does the 75 cm gap start, is it done so that the gap is in the middle on the right hand side, or done more near the bottom of the right hand corner.
In my opinion it is better to give the instructions while showing yourself actually performing instructions. It is not good practice to cut away while you go over the steps and then show final result of the step discussed. People don't learn that way... You need to show the actual work performed in real time.
Oh good God. If I hear the word "survival" tied to one more piece of crap that's been around for five hundred years, and that no one has carried for three hundred, I'm going to lose it. Survival scarf my left hind foot. It's nothing of the kind. It's just a giant piece of cloth people carry because someone a self-made man with a lot of pieces missing says to carry it. It has nothing to do with survival. Like nearly all such items, it's just a way of leaving something far more valuable back at home.
It does beg the question - why do you watch things with "survival" in the title? Also - please define "a self-made man with a lot of pieces missing" - whom are you referring to? Have you ever met that person? Spent time in their company?
Well said Neil, Mors Kochanski had more knowledge in his little toe than this moaning get, no one force's anyone to watch videos or share the same opinion, as you say why watch anything with the word survival in it if it bothers you so much. 🤦

7 years later, still the best tutorial for this type of bag!
Thank you for the build instructions! I’m totally going to make this happen.
Great video. I did the opposite. I made a light weight hammock into a Mors scarf. Great fun. 👍🏴

Hi from Syracuse NY USA brother and thank you for sharing your thoughts and adventures this is old school
Good video man. I really like how you enclosed that inner seam.
Thanks buddy, glad you liked it. Give me a shout on your channel!- your stuff is really great!
Two legends in these comments. This is what I love about TH-cam.
Very nice, didn't even know about this scarf concept, very interesting indeed!
Very excellent project. Thanks for the info!
It was a fantastic video.
A very decent tutorial about a neat chunk of bush kit.
Good video! Very clear instructions. Thanks!

a nice project and a very good description as to how to do it.

How much does your version of Kochanski scarf weigh? Thank you.
Great design. Thanks for sharing.
Cheers Neil nice one sir...
I have the edc hammock by uk hammocks I'm starting to use it...in a similar way...
Cheers

Just watched your video Des, Nice one ! I have another little project coming up that everyone is going love and it will work with your hammock!
wondered how long it would be before we saw this. as usual great video
in the usa you can buy permethrin. spray on the outside.bugs, no like.
also keeps ticks away
in the usa, you can buy permethrin treated clothing
That is clever. Thank you.
nice project, surprised i've never seen any on sale.
It would be a good idea to hem the sides of the 75 cm gap too as they will fray if you don't.
Saw this used in another vid and had a looksie, a few seconds into this vid I thought hmm, it's a hammock reverse engineered lol...
Spare hammock getting repurposed then lol.
That's called a French seam. Its used with fine fabrics that fray easily.
good tutorial - could I ask where to source the main fabric in the UK?

We're does the 75 cm gap start, is it done so that the gap is in the middle on the right hand side, or done more near the bottom of the right hand corner.
It can be in either. My latest ones just have a draw string top, so I can use them as a browse bag
@@greencraft4783 nice one, I was actually thinking of doing that myself.
Can this be used as a hammock
Yes....with some cord and a couple hitches
Good job. atb Opal
