The Best Couch Ideas For Your Home This collection will help you to find the best couch for your home. Sydney Heritage Fleet Do you like the idea of a hammock for the stable ride it gives on a rolling ship, but don't like sleeping bent in a curve? This design of hammock is based on the principle of a suspension bridge - the suspension wires (hammock ropes) are curved, supporting a straight roadway (the part where you sleep). If the hammock is tensioned correctly, it allows you to sleep on your back, side or front, with a straight spine. Hardly traditional, but very comfortable. Hammock Design I chose the length below simply because 1900 mm was the width of the cloth I could buy, and it was long enough for me. Cut your piece of cloth to the size below (or bigger). Cut the triangular corner reinforcing pieces from the side offcuts and sew them on (I used a domestic sewing machine for all except the edge roping, with no problems). Add an outside pocket or two for your torch, water bottle etc. Possible modifications:- 1. Bosun, James Craig Pdf version of instructions here (9kB). Last modified on
