How do I build a sturdy hammock stand, thats all curved?

January 13th, 2010 Leave a comment Go to comments

I caught a fleeting glance of a curved hammock stand, it seemed to be made of only about 5-7 pieces of curved and strait pieces of lumber. I have searched the bowls of the internet and can’t find any way to curve sturdy lumber, please help.

thank you
ha, well of course im up for a huge learning expreince. But before I jump in, I guess i really just want to know, how expensive it will be to actually bend wood (as in equipment).

    Unless you’re up for a huge learning experience don’t even think about bending wood. I’ve made windsor chairs for 40 years and teach wood bending. A more practical way for diy is to laminate thin strips of wood to form a bend. Fine Woodworking mag. has many articles on bending(Taunton Press).
