Im thinking about pulling the trigger on a db, i know it will be different for all hammocks but im just curious on some average weight of some rigs.
Im leaning towards the 1.0 ripstop or 1.8 tafetta single layer 10 ft ridge line.
Thanks for the help!
YOoz!
Randy (DreamHammock owner behind the scenes) recently added a calculator to his site. He doesn't claim it's perfect, but it should get you to a very close estimate:

I plugged in your numbers and came up with the following (assuming a 60 in width):
1.0 ripstop: 23 oz
1.8 tafetta: 28 oz
I have a 1.8 night grid tafetta on order right now and can't wait until it gets here!
Thankyou breyman, looked all over his site but didnt look at the calculator. Im thinking about ordering mine when i get that yearly check from government. I cant wait! Thanks again.
Sure thing. Yah, that calculator is pretty hidden. He'd be well-served linking to it from the order page.Quote:

Good suggestion. I'll see what I can do to bring it more out in the open.Quote:

Should be here Wednesday. Very excited! I'm usually not a fan of most camo patterns, but that Night Grid is pretty cool looking.Quote:
