    The carpark is probably one of those dogging sites you read about in the papers. I've got the Onewind setup too; had it for ages but not got round to using it yet. Have the double hammock with the under blankets, gear hammock, and one of those wearable ponchos for winter that also can be used as an extra layer with the underquilt. Supposedly super comfy hammocks and certainly seems well made.

      Tough one. Each has its own merits. I need to spend more time (quality time not like this camp 😂) in the onewind to decide. I am liking this one though and the gear hammock relieves my.concerns about where to put all my stuff at night that I put inside the Haven usually. I will use them both for some time and do a comparison, pros and cons video I think and make my final decision 👍

    Schwaze Biene (Black Bee) is the other company you were thinking of.
    Their table is good, I have two which I purchased some time ago and they didn’t cost quite as much then.
    A cheaper alternative with good functionality can only be a good thing.
    They use a 6mm threaded spigot which in my opinion would be better and more useful if it was 1/4” or 3/8 so that one could use a tripod quick release and mount it in a tripod head or even directly to a tripod.
    I have found a work around for this by using a lighting stand adapter.
    Will be interesting to see more details of your table, good luck with it.
    EDIT; you have already posted a video with the details I realise now.
