    Honestly, I can't see a big difference in either of the three. They all feel the about the same to me.

    I used strapping on my DIY and whoopie slings on the other two and actually prefer the whoopie slings even though I didn't think I'd like them. The rings and webbing were fine though. I'd buy from either vendor as it was nice calling and talking to an actual person that didn't mind answering my questions.
    The biggest difference I see is price. Your DIY was probably cheapest. The Snipe cost $95 with straps and whoopies the Camper was $65 with straps, whoopies, toggles and a ridgeline.

    Light weight. Low prices. Great gear.

    Sounds like you have an obsession. I have seven hammocks and don't want to get rid of any of them. The good news is that I only have six tarps (some I may get rid of), and I'm still frozen at one TQ/UQ (sticker shock).
