DIYed some gear... Hammocks, UQs, TQ, Tarp

**daneaustin3** · 04-01-2015, 21:07

Just wanted to share some gear we've diy'ed recently.
First up is a 11x10ish tarp made from RSBTR SilPoly gen2. We made it rectagular because my son wanted some doors on it.

Next is a couple of UQ we made from Apex 5.0

And of course there has to be a matching TQ in there somewhere:

And one of 3 hammocks that we made from 1.9 ripstop:

All the material came from RSBTR with most of the suspension coming from Dutch. Both of these guys are great and a wonderful asset to the community!

Great looking gear! What did you think about sewing the under quilt? I just finished mine about a month ago.

Sewing the under quilt was actually a lot easier than I expected it to be. The hardest past was keeping the channels in place and making sure they were included in the stitch line.

Yeah we started this adventure right before Christmas as a present to my oldest son. I must love the punishment of this because I just received another package from rsbtr that includes all the ingredients to make another set (hammock, uq, tq, and tarp). So here we go again.
