You have a great way about teaching. Not only do you show how to do it correctly, but you show us how to fix mistakes we might make as well. Very articulate and easy to follow. Thank you kindly.
You never disappoint me Dave! I remember watching your first video on making the Paracord hammock. I have Dyslexia as well and this method sure does help with those knots! Thanks!!
Outstanding idea ,thank you David, I'll teach this to my grandchildren,they have a great love for the woods and learning.
Glad you revisited this Dave. I watched your first video and made a hammock using the overhand knot method. The reef knot method has to be an improvement. I found the overhand knots to be quite uncomfortable over time without major padding. Hard to believe it's been 7-8 years ago and the hammock I made still holds my large butt. Keep the vids coming brother. Hope to get to your stores new location soon.
Excellent project Dave! I have made nets this way before but the reef knot is a huge advantage above the overhand knot for sure!
Thanks Dave... you are a great teacher. So patient and detail.
Thanks Dave. Excellent class as always. I look forward to making this hammock soon. Looks like it'll be a nice lightweight addition to my pack. Well considering I already have at least half of the cordage stowed in there already
Me: *sees thumbnail on homepage* Huh, a paracord hammock, interesting *continues scrolling* *mentally processing* 15 seconds later: I might need this knowledge one day
I say this video last night and today I went and bought about 500 ft of paracord and I'm halfway through building one! This video is so awesome! Thank you!
Most enjoyable channel on KZhead. I could watch your videos all day. Really appreciate the info.
Thanks for the lesson Dave.You can never get too old to learn a good skill and we appreciate you taking the time to show us.This would be a great project for winter when you are stuck indoors for a few days or even to teach your group sitting around the fire.Why spend a lot of cash when you can use up some of your extra cordage? Again Dave,much thanks,Peace!
Thank you again these projects are fun I look forward to trying this with my daughter. I hope she is willing to make one herself after we make one for me.
awesome!! the first video of yours i ever found was the net/hammock making :) i remember benge watching like 5 hours of ur camping set ups then your slingbow vids been a subber ever since lol
Thank you Dave! I thought you were the best part of DS. Very clear explanation to follow. Take care of yourself.
The easiest DIY I have ever made that is actually doable. Thank you.
nice update i still remember the first vid from years ago now i feel old but much wiser after all these years of watching ur vids
I've been planning on doing this for quite some time and this video just gave me the confidence to do it!
Thank you! No bad music and you talk. 💚
Great video Dave, have followed you for years. Still learning! 👍
I've wanted a hammock for years but always needed the money for more important items. Now I can make my own. Thank you. :-)
Great teaching Dave, really enjoyed it!
Great way to master the skill. Thanks Dave
Hey bro . I LOVE all of your videos . I worked off shore back in the early 80s and we would salvage rope used to tie very large boats up , and make hammocks . Never thought about para cord . Thanks man . Im gonna look into this . Keep up the good work . We're lovin it ! Peace .
Tnx for sharing this method, i was expecting you using the net making method, which i saw a rather long time ago and realized i have already mostly forgotten. This seems to be a lot easier for making nets (esp. with smaller gages) and also fairly easy to remember (though i guess i will find out in a while when some other netting video shows up and have to realize i forgot this too ~ though i guess for now it looks pretty straight forward) … great skill to have, valuable for a wide range of uses, tnx for sharing !
I made one of these a while back with the thought that it could be used as a raised bed (the type you did a video about using the 6 mil can liners). Great video!
If you learn Macrame you have an entire plethora of knots you can use for many things from hammocks, bags, fish nets, wood carriers, chairs, etc.. The majority of things you see on the net these days has turned macrame into fru, fru crap with all the pretty colors and soft cotton mess but it's so much more than that. My dad hired a woman to teach me when I was 12 years old, I'm 58 now and I've used that knowledge in the outdoors to make super strong useful items.
This is a great video. Yes I remember watching your video years ago. I love this and I need to make another one. I done one a long time ago as a cargo net. Thank you for doing another video.
Great videos as always Dave!
Thank you Dave! This looks awesome, I would love to make this!
Great video, and this is a project I'm likely to do with my copious free time. Thanks, David!
I would like to see the detail of how you tied the ends. I remember your older video. I actually made a net from that video. Great lesson in good detail except for the ends of the hammock.
Its funny i found this video because i was just talking to my wife this afternoon about wanting to make a paracord hammock and here you are weaving one! Haha thanks for the how to on this! Now my wife can yell at me for another project! Hahaha she means well 😅 always love the content Dave!
oH SURE... THE DAY AFTER i ORDER ONE FROM eBAY.
Thank you David for another extremely useful and easy to follow net making video, (And it needs to be easy for me to follow, understand and remember)...!
that is freakin cool Dave.... fun to watch and learn!!
another great video Dave
Just wanted to say "thanks for the hammock vid"... I've not seen a better tutorial than yours on how to make one. Also want to say "Cool Mjölnir"! --- Chris
Iv been thinking about making a hammack this videos the best one iv seen yet. Appreciate you sharing your knowledge
David, you hitting the gym man? Looking beast mode lately.
Kick ass job Dave. Thank you sir.

Very nice Dave.

love the beard , and a great idea.
Gosh , Sir, that was beautifully explained , thanks a lot👍
This is an awesome and really great to know for survival. Thanks for the vid.
Great job on that hammock Dave, definitely a good skill to know. Beards looking good brotha
Thank you for your wisdom. I really enjoy to see what you can do. It's a art if you can make cord and than make a nice fishnet or something. Grtz
THIS IS SO BLOODY COOL! Time to order more paracord!
Very detailed visual explanation, usefull skill to have if you have the time to make said hammock. atleast with this method you would still have a boat load of cordage to use incase things go sideways. Still very awesome video, very much appreciate the time and effort you put into making it this turtorial for us all.
Great skill to have, thanks Dave.👍
Great video Dave very good quality😎
i appreciate your information so much man so thank you.
Awesome look fairly easy to accomplish.. tnx Dave
Fantastic, thank you!
Holy hell Mr Dave. You been lifting! Your getting swoll
Dude you kick arse! Thanks for the awesome tips bro! Your skills are righteous dude! Again thanks for the tutorial it was awesome and very helpful!
great! thanks for sharing!
thx for teaching your knowledge best regards from germany
Thanks David! I've always want to know how to this!😊
👌👍 thanks Dave
Cool. Thanks for showing.
This is great! I'm going to make a water bottle sling like this, and maybe a hammock for my camper shell! Love the tutorial; incredibly useful!
Thanks Dave now i have diy project to weekend.
Great video again!! I remember the other video from a few years ago and watching these two videos is very satisfying and makes me want to make my own hammock!
Thank you so much I've learned a lot and hopefully I can use it when I need it 😊😊
Very nice Dave good tutorial
This reminds me of my macrame days in the 70's making plant hangers, it's fun!!! Great skill to learn.
Thank you body from Argentina.
Once again my man dave with the way!
Thank you! This helped me a lot! Building a tree web.
thank you so much for your showing easy process of fensing net.
Bom dia, David!! Obrigado por compartilhar seu conhecimento e tempo. Congratulation ! Have good day!
That’s lotta work Dave awesome 💪🏻👍🏻
The first thing I notice your Thors Hammer. Love from Scandinavian
It’s funny that you say 7 years ago. I didn’t think it was that long. Lol I still have the one I made when you put out the first video on this. Great vid to revisit.
I did it brother. I made small net for the tent. Easier to wrap the tent then put in bag. It awesome and less time pack my tent up. Thanks to you bub. Tumb up
awesome! thank you very much for sharing!
It’s a cool skill, but if I was in a survival situation without the required amount of paracord on me for a hammock, I would probably figure out an easier solution instead of creating enough rope from processed material. Great for the other things you mentioned, though, like traps or scenarios where you would need a net in general. Thanks for the tutorial!
Muy bueno .saludos desde misiones
Awesome skill to learn Dave!, do you feature different paracord variations in your latest book?.
Brilliant!
Thanks! One tough hammock😊
Nice video!! I was waiting for some one who make this kynd of this with Paracord! From argentina👋🇦🇷
Nice work.
This is very cool. You were thorough in describing the needs of materials too. Do you also have a video that goes through how to secure this to the (inside of a) roof of an SUV or mini-van? (When doing it for a cargo net)
Outstanding!
Thank you for showing us this it is a great idea good sir🎩
Yup remember that video believe you gave it to your nephew ! Its was small great vid as always take care brother
Thank You
thanks for video i used to do fishing nets as kid and native lands we make these also we measure with hand 😅 it works too ... thanks for video i teach some one using your method as well :) good job and this teaches survival tactics i do this stuff for ptsd helps me i make battery lights and waterproof lights and stuff as well led etc ... and save money doing this stuff
Brother, this is a great video, very VERY informative. I got the idea to make a 550 Hammock for my father for his 70th birthday and your video was not only the first one that came up, but also the best one. I’ll be tying along with you soon! That’s a lot of cord though? About how much did you use?
Awesome. I'll be making this ASAP.
Is there a way to determine the length of cordage needed depending on either/or the width of the hammock or size of the mesh (larger or smaller)? I.E. if I want a tighter mesh hammock or a wider hammock, how much do I start with. I realize that a 48" wide hammock with a tight mesh versus one with a wide mesh will use up more cord.
Actually, for the larger woodcraft folks, building their own hammock is probably the best way to go. Thank you for this.
