PARA-HAMMOCK:

It  is  possible to make a hammock from a parachute. The
rigging lines run through the fabric right up to the apex.
Cut  5  panels  as shown but do not cut the rigging lines
above. Overlay  the  panels as shown (*A) & flatten  out.

Grasp  the  3 rigging  lines  in the corner & tie, close to the
fabric,  in  an overhand knot *B.

Then plait the 3 lines together (*C). Insert spacer bars,
notched at  each end (*D) to take the lines and tie your
hammock  to  two convenient  trees  or stout posts. If you rig
a  line  over  the hammock (*E) you could drape a ground sheet
or poncho over you to form a quick shelter.

If  you do this be sure one end of the hammock is secured with
a quick-release  knot. It might be necessary  to  get  out  of
the hammock in an emergency.

If  you  have  another piece of rope, or plait some  from
unused rigging lines, you could tie both the hammock strings to
a  fixed loop  (*F) such as a bowline knot. Experiment with
different ways of  suspending  your hammock, until you find the
most  stable  & comfortable.
