Hey Folks,
Decided to DIY two hammocks, one 10'6"" and one 11" to see which I like more. I've never made a hammock and don't know how to sew but not worried about that. The whole thing is a learning experience and I have to do it to learn. Any tips or advice/ things people recommend to do extra would be awesome and thanks in advance! These were both going to be just basic netless, but I'm pretty happy to throw mods at them if the mods are worth doing.
That being said, I had a question about sewing channels. I've only used hammocks that use sewn channel ends and was going to sew these with channel ends. The sides are decorative more or less so not worried about those. Is 70 weight poly thread sufficient for this or would 50 be recommended? I consider it a structural feature since it will be holding me up.
Thanks!
