The hammock experience can be mesmerizing. Aficionados can imagine themselves relaxing in a hammock on a warm, breezy afternoon – a quietly exhilarating experience. Lying motionless, at peace with the world and fretting about nothing is the near-perfect escape. The best way to improve this experience is to sway slowly back and forth. According to the U.S. Patent Office, there are numerous "electro-mechanical devices," some with 200+ parts that fit the bill. What these machines accomplish with much sound and fury Newton's Hammock Booster does quietly with just two functional components – a stick and a string. The entire device includes a small clip that connects the string to the stick, and a thin 6-inch piece of wood to wind the string for storage.
