Finally. After years of sleeping uncomfortably like a banana in the woods. I hope to also build myself an ultralight backpacking alternative to the Dream pretty soon!

    Anyhow, lately I've graduated into experimentation with making my own gear. I recently finished a 1.1 silnylon tarp and am building my boyfriend his first hammock as we speak (and using it as an opportunity to test out the 3" Cat Curves on the ends that XTrekker and a few others are using to reduce calf ridge! Will update!)

    I'm excited to actually start talking instead of just lurking in these forums - especially MYOG-related threads!

    What's your latest project?
    Welcome. Have seen the shill brothers on YouTube. They're hangers from Ohio too.

    I think make some of your own gear accelerates your hammock groove.
