Setting up a chair hammock - INDOORS!

For those who love chair hammocks so much that we seek their comfort, even in the winter, there is a solution: Set your hammock up indoors!

Materials Needed

1.   Screw Hook 2.   Drill / bit 3.   Chair Hammock
Step 1:

- Find ceiling stud/rafter beam (being sure to locate the exact center of the stud). A regular 2x4 ceiling stud should be strong enough to support a large adult (250 lbs).

- Pre-drill a hole with a bit that has a diameter slightly smaller (1/8th inch smaller) than the threads of a screw-hook.

- This same technique can be used to attach a screw-hook to a wall-stud through white-wall jip-roc or through panelling.
Step 2:

- Place the tip of the screw portion of the screw-hook into the pre-drilled hole, and screw it in placing constant pressure towards the stud.

- The screw should be threaded in right until the eye contacts the ceiling material, giving it the most strength possible for staying firm inside the stud.

- Any adequately sized wrench or screw-driver may be used to make it easier to turn in the screw-hook.

Step 3:

- The screw-hook is now ready for the chair. Place the loop onto the hook and enjoy.

* Note: the hook should be at a minimum of 2 feet (60 cm) from any wall or furniture, to prevent the tops of the wood piece from contacting the material directly.
