    It’s incredible seeing the skills you’ve picked up along this journey! That weave is incredible and with the strength of yucca cordage, I guarantee this will outlast most modern hammocks.
    All those hours of work to provide endless hours of rest and comfort!

      Yes, it is stronger than I expected. I actually didn't have to make the cordage so thick.

    Winter is coming. It is nice to have the hammock to sleep higher. By the way, don’t forgot to check the hut roof and do necessary thickening of it. So this winter will be warmer than last year.

    Beautifully made! Laying in a hammock is more comfortable if you lie slightly diagonally in it. If you lie straight, your knees try to bend the wrong way. To lie diagonally you can spread out the weave a bit wider with one shoulder and the opposite heel.

    • @ChadZuberAdventures
      @ChadZuberAdventures  Рік тому +2

      The hammock is too small to sleep diagonally. Trust me, I know hammocks pretty well. I have five other hammocks that I bought many years ago in Mexico and Brazil. I've spent many nights sleeping in a hammock both in a home and in the wilderness. I would have liked to make this hammock twice as wide for better comfort but it would have taken another 250 hours! I just had to finish it so I could move on. So it's not the greatest hammock but it is far more comfortable than lying on the ground and it is super strong.

    I've seen (somewhat) similar hammocks made from paracord, but never like this. Making all the cordage, by hand, and weaving it all together is so labor intensive, I'd be reluctant to even start. Great, great job. ;-)

    • @ChadZuberAdventures

It never ends. I do very short workouts when I can find the time.

    From one fiber artist (crochet) to another....the pulling of many feet of cordage through over and over again when making the handles had me supremely triggered. 😂😂😂 Whenever I'm in a similar situation, I'll roll my yarn into a small ball, either round or oblong, to make the wrapping much easier.

I'm sooo happy to see (and very relieved) that you don't have to sleep on the ground any longer. And that you have a very comfortable seat additionally at last. Congrats 🎉 again for having the skills and especially the patience !!! to fabricate this fantastic hammock. In ancient times it must've been worth a small fortune.

      @@ChadZuberAdventures - Ain't that the truth. I grew up in houses without indoor plumbing and wood heat (chopping wood) so I know about hauling water, using only enough water to get the job done, only using water when absolutely necessary, bathing once a week, wearing the same outfit all week, one face cloth and one hand towel for 5 people (no other towels), cooking everything from scratch, growing veg, eating wild game only - you get the picture. If you were idle, something wasn't getting done. And my grandparents on both sides were still living like this well into my adult years. I know a few things about priorities and having the time to do things not on the priority list. I also realize how long weaving a garment would take (not counting the time needed collecting and making the yucca fibers and string) with everything else you have to do so you have enough water, firewood, food, etc. not to mention the filming and pottery, bricks, collecting food for storage (we also went into the wild to collect berries, sometimes had to spend many days collecting to have enough just for the winter or rest of the year and for jams). I'm sure it would take at least a year to make a light shirt. I didn't intend to dray this out but that hammock did had me seeing the potential of garments out of yucca fibers. I wasn't suggesting you try it.

      It's the result of soaking the fibers longer and then they get darker. Also when I roll the fibers on my leg if my leg is dirty and sweaty then it produces darker cordage.

    I noticed when you joined two lengths of cord together you used a granny knot. this knot will slip and come apart. I would recommend a sheet-bend knot, it's the go to knot for net making and repair. the only thing it's not good at is hard and smooth line like mono filament in which case it will not snug up and stay tight. yucca fibre looks hard and smooth but it's a natural fibre and should be ruff enough to hold well.
    I like the way you used an over-hand knot at the end of each cord to keep all the fibres together I would still do that.
    Once again your videos are stunningly beautiful, your very fortunate to have such a place to do your thing in. I hope you own it, or it owns you, however you like to view that sort of thing.

      It was actually towards the end when I created the separate stitch and brought them together. You saw how that border stitch was different, right?

    To have made the yucca hammock wider you could use a couple pieces of wood to separate the two ends when starting the weaving process and again at the far end
    Nice work Mr Zuber. I still did no catch how to roll the yucca fibers into the cordage

    I can't imagine how satisfying it must have been to lie in it after who know how many hours of painstaking work, well done!
    edit: ~250 work hours?! That's like a month of working 8-9 hours a day!

    I never believed that you could make bedding spray on the beaches where you've been. Everywhere you've been, you probably did it because you wanted rope. You took it from the tree you were supposed to find and then you made it into rope. It's amazing. a lot

    Collect the Yuki fibers in thick starts and tie them together with a rope, you will get something like a mat, you will have a thick "blanket" for entering the hut to keep the room warm.

      That’s a great idea but will take a very long time. Yucca fibers are very difficult to process. I would prefer to use a different material that is less labor intensive.

    Wow, this is crazy. I thought about a project like this like once I’ve probably only made about 30 feet of yucca cordage in my life. But if it were me, I would hang that hammock a lot tighter so it’s straight when you hang it and slightly bowed from your weight when you get in, with your legs on the higher side and your head on the lower to prevent slipping during sleeping (although your Hamic might not have that problem, because of the friction in the woven Yucca fibers)

      Have you slept in a Maya style hammock before? They are most comfortable loosely hung.

    34:37 hmmmm do you have cattails near you? I was thinking what if you made a pillow with a crossweave, and then fastened it where your head goes? Would that be more comfortable?

    • @ChadZuberAdventures
      @ChadZuberAdventures  Рік тому

      No cattails in this area but there are in the lower elevations and I've made a pillow out of cattails before.
