    New Hammock

    Just thought I would share this with those of you who are hammock lovers.

    Got some dig camo nylon from DIY HAMMOCKGEAR in the US as seconds but it all seemed fine I could see no faults.

    Anyway here is my finished Hammock hope to try it out soon.

    Did you have to pay import duty etc?
    If there are no women around and a man says something, is he still wrong?

    Hi Thumbcrusher,
    No no duty to pay I work out what I can purchase and keep it just under the £15 threshold. so only postage from the US.

    You can get 4 or 5 yards of material and still be ok. However if you miscalculate its a high price -- Vat @ 20 pc and a £8.0 handling fee.
    Best not to make an order to close to £15 because if the exchange rate moves you could get caught.
    For all that it is still worth it.

    That's is looking good! wish I had knew about keeping purchases under £15 when ordering from the US.

    No probs - we must have the lowest threshold before import duty I believe the Americans can order over £100 worth of our goods before they get hit!
