German Folding Hammock "Erlau" Book The collar has some wearDecent German folding hammock. It looks like it is marked "Erlau" on the wood. It has one hole and a few repairs, but it does looks somewhat sturdy. Depending on your weight, you may still be able to use this. I am slightly on the fence as to whether or not I would trust it to hold me. I wouldn't be afraid to try if I had something more sturdy to tie it to.
