Need a hammock stand - here is how to build one bit.ly/hammock_stand
Thank you so much for this incredible video! I made my very 1st hammock with your help and my family loves it!
That is awesome! LOVE to hear that! Congrats!
Best description of the technique that I've seen so far. I had wanted to make a hammock a few years ago, but couldn't find a comprehensive instructional video or written tutorial that didn't just confuse me. Thanks for sharing this!
Thanks - appreciate that!
This is wonderful! I don't know how I missed this. Can't wait to attempt this one. Thank you!
You are so welcome!
I just love your videos! You take something that looks so complicated and present it in a manner that says, "You can do this!" THANK YOU for sharing your time & talents!!! ☺🌻
Thank you so much! Such a fun project!!
Brilliant! It's beautiful! 😍 Making one for my daughter's birthday. Thank you so very much. There's hardly any good tutorials. I wish I could give you and Oscar for this!
Thank you for the kind word. I hope she will like it.
I'm based in NZ, just commenting to assist others off this brilliant idea! I found it hard to find the rings, but instead used a zinc coated 12mm D shackle. My partner goes camping q lot so makes the hammock a bit more versatile!!
Awesome! Thank you!
Finally find a hammock tutorial 🎉, been looking for years! Thanks 😊
You are welcome.
Love the cardboard idea! I’m making a hammock chair and I couldn’t keep the rows even. Thank you for your idea!
Glad it was helpful!
Great!! Can’t wait to try. 😍
Have fun!
Greetings from Indonesia. Lockdown, then looking for something to do...yup..make a hammock with stands...love it.
Sounds great!
Signed in just to say thank you and I appreciate the work. Lawson
Awesome! Thank you!
Thank you for your video. It really makes me want to do it! 🥰 From Guatemala Central America. Lovely family. God bless you.
You can do it!
Beautifully done! And a great designed hammock.
Thank you very much!
I just ordered all the stuff to make this hammock, can't wait to get started. Could you make a video on making one big enough for 2 people? Pretty please?
Oh, that sounds fun!! I would have to think about the wood on the ends, making sure it was tough enough. Hmmm, you have me thinking!
I'm getting ready to make this tomorrow I just got everything to make it
Fantastic! Have fun!
Your video helped so much, thank you! I have a suggestion that might help improve your stand. I noticed that the bar was wobbling, and you were having slight trouble balancing the bar while making the first knots at the start of your video. I was wondering if it would be a good idea to drill one large hook on both ends of the vertical pipe at the desired length to reach 22" to place the bar on so you'll have a quick and good measurement every time while you work? Maybe have the hooks at a certain angle so the bar won't move up or drop down, about 45 degrees. Ish. I hope I described it alright and that it makes it easier for you.
Oh, that is a great suggestion, I will have to try that on my next one.
Hello, I had a very important question: how many meters is each thread - please answer as soon as possible💙
The only suggestion I would make is to fashion an actual clew on the ends- a clew is separate from the hammock, just for hanging purposes, and works out quite nicely.
Good suggestion - I looked it up, that is a great idea. Thanks!
Have you ever considered using paracord for this hammock? I loved the tutorial and have a ton of paracord around but don’t want to cut it up if you think it wouldn’t work.
Yes it would work!!! It takes a ton of cording - but if you have the paracord - it would look great!
Amazing work! Can I do it myself, as I'm a very beginner for weaving? How much time should I spend to making a hammock?
My first one took a long time to design. The rest I would get done in a week or so, working on it in the evenings.
Thanks for explaination obviosly
Happy to help
@@DIYOnTheHouse 💝💝
@@DIYOnTheHouse and ı wanna know, totally how many metres cord need?
I can't wait to try my hands at this! 🤩
Have fun!
This is a really great tutorial, thank you. I used this to successfully make my own hammock and it has worked out very well indeed. Strong enough for two adults plus beer in fact haha. Many thanks on putting this video out there.
Fantastic!! Congrats on finishing it!!
Thank you it's very useful
You are welcome!!
Check out Sailrite's video on how to make a hammock, the ring hook portion might be helpful to you when making your hammock. I love your main portion of your hammock but like the hanger section of Sailrite's hammock.
Thanks for the tip!!
I love you energy and subbed immediately. I hope this is a good hammock
Thank you for your kind words! We love the hammock!!
I'd like to make mine with 5mm cord, what would you recommend the length of cords? Thanks! ❤
I am only guessing, but since the mm is effecting the width, the length wouldn't be effected. Maybe consider seeing what less strands/holes on the wood dowel would make. Good question. If you come up with an answer, let us know!
Hi! I'm interested in using 5 mm cord, as well. Do you have measurements from your project? Thank you in advance!
Love to have more details. Did you do a more in detailed video? Like was this lying flat on the floor while you made it, or was it hanging. How much did it cost you?
You will need 1 roll of cord, 2 rings, and the 2 rods - I am guessing the costs was around $30. I used the macrame stand that I built in this video czcams.com/video/iEigUZOd3HY/video.html
Beautiful amazing ❤❤
Thank you! 😊
Thank you for this, very helpful, do you think I need to make a hammock stand for it or I can roll it up when camping, unroll, put a rope into the rings and hang it between trees🌳 - 🌳 ?
You could certainly put between trees! Fun!
A very cool and informational thank you
Glad you enjoyed it!
You are superb 💞
Thank you so much 😀
that's sooo awesome! I will defiantly try this. Thanks so very much on such a great video!
You are so welcome!
Thank you so much for this!!
You're so welcome!
I wish I knew how to weld so I could make one of these stands.
Brilliant!
Thank You!
your design and viedo are absolutely wonderful. 2 questions: is the macrame cord cotton or is it a mix of cotton and polyester or nylon? or something else completely. I am new to macrame and I cannot find the amazon link below you refer to (maybe because I live in South Africa). If I double the amount of cords in between each pair of drill holes on the wooden dowel presumably it will make the weave tighter?( obviously a lot more cord required!) I love love love it and can't wait to start the project. My mum (91) is coming to stay and I need a huge project. Thank you so very much
I'm excited for you!! It was a fun project! Here is the link for the cord, in case you can get it where you are amzn.to/3FQgjaA It is all cotton. You can certainly add more holes - just be careful to not weaken the rod with too many holes. Let me know if you have more questions -- it was a great project!
I was looking for a 'sling' with pulleys to hoist my Thule cargo box up to the garage roof, and stumbled across this video. I think this would work great with a few modifications in the center of each side to keep the cargo box from slipping while using the pulleys. I would love some suggestions from everyone! Thx
How heavy is the box?
@@DIYOnTheHouse about 50 lbs, empty...it's just bulky and I live alone so I need a one-person hammock thingie...
@@nowhining You may be able to combine the hammock with this pattern: czcams.com/video/bS7SsXoAkKk/video.html
Thats an amazing idea! I have an old steamer box I'd love to do with that idea. I am not one to snag someone else's idea but I really like it. I'd just put mine like a display though.
Thx
Thank you for your video. You are a Very good teacher! You should do a hammock chair tutorial!
We just posted a hammock chair one!! czcams.com/video/bS7SsXoAkKk/video.html
Hello lady thanks for sharing!!
You are so welcome!
beautiful
Thank you! 😊
Great hammock! but had to guess what to do with Braided side. Did you just weave it through every other hole to pull it together?
Exactly!
Great, just what I'm looking for.
THX! :-)
Glad to help!
Thank you. Looking yo replicate this with thicker jute rope (10mm maybe 14mm). It is for a fixed 3 sided wooden wall, so I won't be needing the two rings but rather many eye screws of a similar spacing.
My question, how long do I need to make my cord cuts for an overall space of 60"x98"? This is the best video I have found for what design I'm looking for. Thank you for the input
Dang - that sounds super cool!!! Yours would be 10" longer than the one in the video - but with your cord being thicker, it may cinch up the length more with larger knots. I guess I would try to add at least 2' to the length?? What was your guess?
@@DIYOnTheHouse I have since consulted my wife and we decided to replicate your design with macramé (jute much less comfortable).
Two follow-up questions though (PLEASE!):
1) for a sun exposed outdoor application at my side and supporting: is 4mm cord prudent of not a significant change
2) will braided macramé last longer or function much differently in application and construction?
@@nickmangiapane3352 Fun! I think 4mm would be a good change. I am guessing braided cord would last longer, it may not have the same decorator look?? Email us pictures on your project if you get a chance! diyonthehouse@gmail.com
Im so eager to do this 😍
So fun to make!!
How much did it cost you to make this? How much total rope did you use and how did you decide which kind of cord to use? How long does your hammock typically last? Do you leave it outside or bring it in? Also what kind of wood do you use? I was curious if I could make it out if a tree branch….? They aren’t exactly straight but I like the organic ness of the tree branch and rustic. I noticed some people do a weave after the metal rings. Is that necessary?
It probably cost around $50 to make. We take it inside when we are not using it, so it should last a long time. You could do a tree branch as long as you can get holes drilled through it, and then you could adjust your cords to make them even with the curving of the branch. It is really a super fun project!!
Awesome! Where do you get your rope and how much do you need of it?
@@meganpond9378 You will need roughly 1100 feet - this is the cord I used Macrame Cord: amzn.to/391b7lT
Thank you so much for this video... I am definitely going to try, plc can you tell the exact thicknesses of wooden dowels in "mm", I have 18 mm thickness of wooden dowels ....can I work with it
The one we used was 38 mm - I would think that 18mm would be too weak, I would suggest something a little larger.
@@DIYOnTheHouse Thank you so much...
Love this tutorial! Is there a particular brand of cord that you would recommend that would hold up well outdoors?
I wish I knew one. Sadly, the options are sort of limited for that quantity. We are planning on taking ours down when we aren't using it.
@@DIYOnTheHouse That works too! Thank you so much for following up!
I did nice job , thanks for sharing 😘😘😘
You’re welcome 😊
Do you do anything to the dowels like stain them or put a sealer on them?
We didn't - but that would be a good option! We take ours inside when we are not using it.
Just for interest, the knot you tied at the very beginning around the ring is called a ‘Larks head’.
Thanks
Nice
I like your video its very clear procedure! Thank you very much for viewing 😊😊😊
So nice of you - thanks!
About how much (lenght wise) of thread are you using? Awesome guide thanks a lot! :)
You will need roughly 1100 feet - this is the cord I used Macrame Cord: amzn.to/391b7lT
How many more starting cords should I use to make it larger for 2 people? I'll use larger rods and weight appropriate rings. Ideas? Thanks!
My guess is you would just have to make it wider a few inches. Beefing up the rod and ring would be the most important thing. Let me know what you come up with!!
May I ask what is the load (weight) limit of the hammock?
Thanks Fon
The rings are rated to 200 lbs. If you can find heavier rings - the string portion can hold a bunch!
FYI Heavy Load rings I ordered.www.uscargocontrol.com/products/2-heavy-duty-round-ring-10-000-break-strength?gclid=Cj0KCQjwsZKJBhC0ARIsAJ96n3WwS0sQ_OOB8khXQ3jRxSnLr96PNfXh70mUrovwnQYl31gdyfWjrykaAlXSEALw_wcB
So nice 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
🇵🇭
Thanks for visiting
Super 👍👍👍
Thank you 👍
me podrían decir las medidas de todo en español,queda muy bonita
Hi there! Great video, thank you! One question...you have said that 1100ft of cord is required, but only require 30ft for 20 cords... which is only 600ft? Am I missing something here? I measure in metres, so want to ensure I have it right before I snippy snippy!! :)
Also understand there is cord required for the hitching on the end, and the webbing too - but you would definitely not need 500ft for that??
Then you will need to cut 18 cords, 28 feet long. These ones wrap around the rod and get wove into the hammock. Watch at minute 9:19 on the video. Let me know if you have any more questions! Enjoy!
Ahh! My apologies, I did watch the whole thing initially then came back to the beginning of the video to get my material sizes! Apologies, and thank you very much :)
I have make hammock as per video Thanks mam
Great 👍
❤❤❤❤❤
😀
What is total length of ready hammock?? How much can weave out of 30 feet cord??
can i make this without cutting diagonally?
I'm not sure what you are referring to? Cutting diagonally??
Do you use a quick connect type of link to connect the chain to the hammock ring ?
We used an S Hook to hook from the ring on the hammock to the chain on the stand.
I actually mean , What is used to hang the Hammock bed to the hammock stand ?
@@teradianne8273 It think we are talking about the same thing. On the hammock is the 2" ring. On the hammock stand is a heavy duty chain. Between the two we use an 'S' Hook. There are several options to use in that spot - but the S hook works good.
Thank you very much for the clarification.
Where did you get the wooden closet rods?
We got ours at Home Depot, it's in the department where the base board is. It's closet rod and you pay per foot.
How much weight does it hold and how would I make one to hold a 400 lb person
Not sure of capacity, You could make one out of clothes line rope. It would be strong enough.
Use two rings on each side.
Thanks
Going to try to use a paper clip instead of the floral wire since I have a paper clip, but no floral wire. I used the old hardware and wood from my husband's torn hammock. The holes are single, not double, so my square knot pulls through the wood dowel holes. Is there any way to fix this? Is there such a thing as a double square knot or should I use a different knot? This must be a very loose braid because I didn't have enough cord left over at the end to pull up to the other ring. The measurements from one end to the other should be 133" not 107". 44" plus 89" equals 133". Trying to figure out lengths of rope for my husband's hammock that will measure 36" on each end, 90" for hammock. 72" + 90" = 162" but cannot figure out just exactly how long to cut the rope. I tried 33' per rope but not sure this will be enough, especially for the braiding.
Have you tried doing 2 knots to keep them going through the holes? How are you doing on your measurements? That is always a tricky things on these projects.
@@DIYOnTheHouse Paper clip worked. I added 3 feet to my lengths for longer hammock. I've modified a great deal, because I used my husband's old hammock hardware. It was wider and he wanted it longer. Next one will be for me, so I'll follow directions more closely.
please what are the dimensions of the hamack you just made ?
It is about 48" wide and 84" long
Hi...so I started one of these. How the neck do you keep it from tangling up into a wad? Omgosh!!! What a mess I made 🙄 I am so annoyed 😬
*heck....not neck but maybe my subconscious was thinking of a noose hahahaha!!!!
Oh no!
what's the final length of the hammock when it's finished?
Great question. I guess I should have added that in the description. Finished Size: Body of hammock 44" x 89". From Ring to Ring (one end to other end) 107"
@@DIYOnTheHouse thank you😄 absolutely love this hammock design!!! Great video!
You have nice hands…
Thanks.
Approximately how much time investment do you estimate would be required for a first timer? (Don't worry, I won't hold you to it, just ballpark) And then, after you're an expert?
Great question! I would say 1 hour to cut string, 1 hour to get wood cut and drilled, 1 hour to get the strings through the rod, and then 6 hours of doing the macrame. So maybe 9 - 10 hours?? But honestly, it is worth it, they turned out great!!
@@DIYOnTheHouse It looks awesome. I'm already planning on it. 9-10 hours ain't bad. Thanks for the instructional video!
Madam myself Dev from India. Loose job in this pandemic situation. Wish to strart something own for survival. And I really like both of the videos ( Hammocks making and hammock stand too. It's my kind argue if possible can you please courier me a CD of the entire description.
Please..🙏
This is a great project! This is the only instructions I made for the hammock. If you have questions while making it, let me know!
@@DIYOnTheHouse As I say before if possible I need a complete instruction file .
Is it possible through mail..
@@DIYOnTheHouse you are going to find your hammock in mass production from ppl like above who want to steal ppls ideas and mass produce and sell as a knock off.
Isn’t 20 cords at 30 feet long only 600 feet? Am I missing something?
I put a correction in the video around 2:50 -- is that what you were referring to?
Does anyone know what the weight limit might be? I 6'6" and 270 so I wouldn't want to make one and then break it hahaha
I would hate it to break too!! I think my concern is the ring - the cording would just wear over time -- I would find heavy duty hardware.
@@DIYOnTheHouse thank you for replying!!!
Y cuantos cuesta l hamaca n dolar
Los suministros cuestan probablemente alrededor de $ 40 a $ 50
Can it hold 2 people?
I probably would stick with one. The rings are rated to 200 lbs - it would really hurt if those broke!
You can definitely find higher rated rings at Lowes etc, or you can find online. Worth the money for sure. Id go for 600 lb+ rating for 2 people even for skinny people. Because safe is better than broken or dead.
My partner and I could fit on the hammock at opposite ends. Unfortunately there was too much pressure on the wooden Dowling, my partner reached back to hold it and it snapped at a drill hole 😪. An awesome hammock but only lasted us five minutes!
@@meganpritchard5792 That is horrible!! Hopefully no one was hurt!
@@DIYOnTheHouse No-one was hurt, thank you :) I think thanks to your experimenting and such, the knots are super strong! Just gave us a fright to hear a snap! My partner is fixing it by removing the drilled wood, and adding sturdy sticks through the rope without the holes right the way through it. We think this has taken the strength out of them. Also, we have pine dowling here, which isn't as strong as our native timber, but still expensive to buy as rounded sticks!
Why don't you provide metric measures? People outside the US don't understand inches and feet.
Sorry for the inconvenience. It works both ways on measurements. There are several ft to m converters on the web.
If YOU made the converts it could help get more views. Isn't that what you all want?
You can use whatever measure system you please in the US, but it just so happens that the outside world is metric. Don't you know that or do you just don't care?
Is it worth it
We think so!
Thanks for yelling!!!!
