    First hammock done

    I just got done with my first diy hammock done. I love the way it turned out and I love the Weight reduction of this one compared to the eno I have been packing. The eno with woopys and straps comes in at 2lb 1.5oz and the new diy is 1lb 5.8oz I made longer woopys and shorter straps soft shackles. The stuff sack for the hammock it attached at the head end and a separate sack for the woods and tree straps.

    excuse me...this calls for obligatory photo of you, the maker and occupant while in it!

    Nice work!

    Nice job. Agreed, I often stand at the display unit for Enon at Academy sports and tell people, you can make that for half the weight and price
