Very nice. It looks very comfortable. Some things are just worth the weight.
Yea, I'm shooting for about 1" of loft on my sewn through. The calculations get pretty hairy though. My design has 8" down chambers 92" long (736 cu in @ 1" loft). I did it this way so I had the...
Excellent design.
I think I'll modify my bottom entry bug net to be the same as yours. I like yours much much more.
I sort of copied the ENO Guardian design but left off the zipper and made the...
Hammock Gear makes a sewn through Summer Burrow TQ that is listed as good for 45 - 50 deg F. Loft is right in line with what you are planning and their chambers run in the width.

:D
You phrased that quite eloquently.
I ordered my Winter Incubator on 5/26. Olive w/ 1 oz overstuff. Figured I'd need it for the summer, LOL. It was 98 here the other day. Only 95 today - it's getting down right chilly.
Love my ENO Doublenest. One of the best sleeping hammocks I have ever hung in. I have to bring an alarm clock or I over sleep, it's so comfortable. The first time I hung in it, 3 years ago, I...
