I mentioned something in the first post in the thread but it might not have been clear. I'm considering incorporating the ends into one of these underlayers (or the primary hammock itself). It wouldn't be hard to do, just extend out the fabric during the cut like this (past the lines)
Then the ends could be brought together to a point. Then it will look kinda like canoe
EDIT: Actually the ends wouldn't be such a straight diagnol like that but more of a curve upward, so it will be like saggy pocket.
This accomplishes a few things. It can easily be attached to some point on the suspension and act like the draft stopper like Tee Dee made. It can also act as storage for your gear. The main thing I'd like to use it for is storing a quilt I don't need when I go to sleep but need later in the night. In my other hammocks I try to shove it in the end (which it doesn't stay), hang it over a ridge line, or just let it sit next to me (which is too hot).
I also plan on having it as part of the bugnetting system (still in development
).
