I'm going to use this post for all of my DIY projects. So far the only thing I haven't made was my hammock!
Suspension, 1inch poly webbing, Titanium Descender rings. I can probably shorten the tree strap parts eventually, at the moment with trees this diameter I can easily span a 28ft gap
Small hole at each end of the bug net tightly fits the strap on the hammock.
zip from top to bottom so I can open the net and sit on the hammock, I take my shoes off and store them on a 1/4 sized hammock below my main hammock.
Silnylon tarp, no seam at the top. velcro "doors" at each end for extra rain protection
The bug net was 6 yards of fabric to start with, I did a rolled hem on each end with 1/2 inch grosgrain in the middle of it. to this I stitched the zips.
the top I did a grosgrain hemmed edge with small holes in each end. then I cut some angles on the bottom and did another grosgrain hem.
