    No 1.7 will not support 400lbs. nor will 1.9. You would be thinking of a DOUBLE layer of 1.7.

    I can make a single layer hammock out of cordura canvas that would support 800lbs.

    Point is, I dont know what they use, Im talking about different weights of ripstop nylon.


    Anyways, I got my materials today, and You guys can look for pics of the finished tarp and hammock in the next few days.
