So, I built my asym double layer ripstop hammock, whipped with strap ties,
12' harbor freight straps. The hammock itself is about 8.5' long.
I tested this setup in a wooded area.
Set it up under an 8x10 poly tarp set up in a diamond.
Sleeps good. I left it set up for about 3 days in off and on heavy rain and had a small amout of water in the bottom of the hammock. More like just wet rather than a puddle. About 8" i diam.
I was thinking that it was probably wind driven rain, but not really sure since it was such a small amount.
My question is when the straps get wet will they weep water into the main hammock fabric over a long period of time and if so how do you control it ??
Thanks
