Through trial and error, I finally found the best way to hang a hammock and to lay in a hammock.This video is how to hang a hammock and how to properly lay in a hammock.

How To Make A Poncho Liner Under Quilt or PLUQ for Hammock Camping

Step by step instructions on how to make a DIY No Sew Poncho Liner Under Quilt for under $45.00 in about an hour or less. I show how it works and how easy it is to make a nice comfy under quilt that is good down to 45 degrees. More insulation such as reflectix or a space blanket can be added in the fold for colder weather. I added some additional mods such as more cord locks and a secondary suspension for more adjustability.

To make the PLUQ into a 3 season underquilt try adding in some insulation like Climashield. Just click on this video link for my step by step insturction on added that extra insulation and sewing the PLUQ closed.

Affordable/Common Man's Under Quilt for Newbees...

Are you new to Hammock Camping and considering switching out your camp pad/air mattress for an under quilt? Have a limited budget for camping gear and want to try out a camping hammock underquilt to see why everyone says they are so comfy and warm? Then check out this quick DIY NO SEW Poncho Liner Under Quilt made from a US Military Poncho Liner.

Check out this link for the instructions:


Materials I Used (I already had some of the shock cord and cord locks so my cost was around $45):

1 - Poncho Liner $20-$36 (Purchased mine on EBay for $36) New US Military for durability
2 - Cord Locks $2-$4 (I used 3 more than what the instructions required to add more adjustability)
230 inches of 1/8 Shock Cord - $3-$4 (Got mine on Amazon.com) I used less than recommended
84 inches of 3/32 Shock Cord - $4 (Purchased at Cabela's in a package of 45 feet)
Optional 120 inches of 3/32 Shock Cord for Secondary Suspension
2 - Plastic Nite Ize S-Biners $3-$4 (any small carabineers will work...these have a 10 lbs. limit)

Tools Used:

Scissors, lighter, small Allen Wrench
Optional - wire or coat hanger and pliers to feed cord through the channels on the poncho liner

Since I'm relatively new to the whole hammock camping scene I'm still collecting the gear I need to be comfortable, safe and warm. I did purchase a Winter 20 degree under quilt from HammockGear.com but still needed an affordable warm weather under quilt. After weighing my options and my budget (spent too much on the winter underquilt) I settled on a DIY no sew solution that was easy, quick and cheap for a warm weather option. Most of the materials for the PLUQ can be purchased locally and assembled in under 1 hour.

A resource I found very helpful was Almost everything you need to know about hammock camping can be found at this site and they do also have a book. This is where I found the instructions to build my PLUQ...with a few mods of my own.

Also check out to answer ANY questions you might have on hammock camping. These guys are awesome, friendly and very knowledgeable. They have a TON of information on the PLUQ from people who have built their own and used them for years.

And...Check out Mr. Shug Shugedy shug shug for some awesome, entertaining and educational hammock camping videos. He's also a big hammockforums.net member. No really. Check out his YouTube channel. You'll love it. He's an entertainer, juggler, unicycler and all around fun guy to watch.

DIY Hammock Boot Bucket Prototyping - like a gear sling but not

Trying to solve the problem of where to put my boots in the muddy or snowy hangs. In storms I don't have enough room under my hammock with a big underquilt, and I don't want them above me or in with me. I also want to be able to easily put them somewhere right as I get into bed and if I need them during the night, and have them handy to put on in the morning.

Sort of a glimpse to into how I go about prototyping gear builds.

Now I will take it out and see what I don't like and what I do. Then hopefully come up with a final version.
