    I finally got to do business with Larry! If ever there was a busy man, it's Larry Fink! Keep that in mind when ordering from him. He'll take care of you but you need to be patient, because he's the only person working at Magnafabrics and apparently the business keeps him running. The 1.35 oz ripstop is good stuff and well worth the wait. Speaking of that, what would the suggested weight limit be on that fabric?

    Here's a good chart from Dream Hammocks that figures comfort rating by fabric weight and layers: http://www.dream-hammock.com/ComfortRating.html

    Hope it helps!

    I have not used that particular fabric, but as with anything else not all fabrics are created equal. I have seen 1.1 hold me up no problem and had 1.1 feel like it was going to give before i hung it. Larry's stuff is usually good to go. I have used the 1.1 from him without issues.
