Hi all, Preacha man invited me over from HammockForums. I live in the Little Rock area and backpack all over Ark. And yes, I do use a hammock and make my own Tarps and shelters.

Years ago I made a SilNylon Tipi and put a Small TI stove in it when cold. After I started hammocking I had this stove I still wanted to use, so I designed and made a shelter I call my smokehouse. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jeAYJsY394g
I was about half sick when I made this video...

PreachaMan--- Thanks

the Dierks Lake dam and we teach in Dierks.
