I'm looking at starting a new project: a catenary cut hexagonal tarp for my hammock. I've read and read about all the different fabric options and I'm not sure what is best. There's regular 1.1 SilNylon, 1.9 SilNylon, coated polyester, this stuff called Impetus? It seems some people think 1.1 SilNylon is fine, others say it's really too light? What are the pros and cons to the fabrics and what it's your preferred fabric?
It's doubtful that my tarp would ever see any snow accumulations on top of it (as I'm in Alabama and we don't see very much snow), but we do occasionally see some pretty windy conditions.
Thanks!
