Fixing up the hammock
In a world where we're supposed to think about the environment. There still aren't sold spare parts, for a lot of things. Hammocks/swings or what they're called in Sweden is one of those things.
But I refuse to buy a new one, just because the roof was damaged.
So my father replaced the part of the frame, that was broken.
My brother 3D printed a new screw.
Using the old fabric, that had lost it's color and had huge holes, I cut out a new roof. Made from thicker and rainproof cotton canvas.
The old fabric, was once black...
Of course I had cat help.
Then I just had to add some velcro straps to the shorter sides.
I rain proofed the seems.
And done!
I'll put out the cushions too as soon as the seat is dry. Then some happy cats can take naps there and if the cat's allows it, we can also sit there.
Oh and my father had me ordering fabric as soon as he heard, I was sewing a new roof. He wants one for his hammock too. So I now have his roof frame in my hallway.
