There was a fellow in Idaho on craigslist.com making them a while ago, but I
could not find him anywhere.  Go to www.thesamba.com and you'll find some
ideas there for making your own.

I had one on my '68 Westy, and it was great!  Don't need one anymore, except
maybe for storage while camping.

Subject: Child hammock for Westy?

Hi all,

So, they used to make a child hammock for the earlier VW buses, but it's
too high up to be used as a cot for a child on the T3s. To those of you who
have camped with small children, i.e., toddler or younger, what do you do
to provide a safe and comfortable sleeping place for your young'un?

My new son will be 8 months old when the first music festival comes around
next year . . .

Thanks,
Marc (still assessing reliable camper/daily driver options)
