    Thanks Smak9. I think I spent a few hours on it.

    That looks a fine hanging rig. Well done XTrekker, you have a good eye for detail.

    Smart looking hammock XTrekker! I would expect nothing less from you. I like the built-in gear hammock at the ridgeline and, of course, the trademark straps. Well done!

    Thanks Mad777. Borrowed the gear hammock idea from Otter.

    Awesome looking hammock you made there! I have just made a gathered end hammock out of the 1.4 PolyD from Dutch and am gathering courage to try and sew on a bug net. There is no way I would even give it a try without the help of you and your videos! Thank you so much for all you have given to us DIY newbies! It is very much appreciated!

    Hey XTrekker what is the length of the foot end triangle cover on this hammock. I like the longer look. Does the extra length on that affect the ability to sit in the hammock as a chair?

    Thanks MuleTeam. Glad they helped. Its feedback like this that makes it worth while to make them. I plan to make a newer version of the bugnet video on my next hammock. I have simplified a few things alittle now days. On the previous video I over complicated the triangle ends alittle. Plus my bugnets are set on a bias which doesnt allow the user to lay either direction which I will address in the next video. I will try and demonstrate both methods.

    I believe it was 18" with a 70 degree angle. Havent had any issues with sitting in the hammock with the longer triangles.

    Great job!

    I'm trying to wrap my head around the purpose and placement of the cat-cut that has been mentioned.
    It's on the ends? Where the channel is sewn?
    Can you explain it to me like I'm a 4-year-old? Like, is it a smiley face curve or a frowny face curve?

    It's a great looking hammock regardless.

    I believe this is what he did. Try not to be jealous of my Paint skills.
