FF, Hooch; who ISN'T a Bama Football Fan? Actually, I'm a WAC & Big 12 (Big 8 when I was there) alum. But, there is always a little bama fan in any football fan/player.
The color had nothing to do with my allegiances, I just wanted some color. My ENO is black, my HH is brown, my Warbonnet is green, and my Traveler is grey. The one I sleep in is very festive, but I wanted a colored hammock that I can leave in the yard for those perfect days when nonhangers are sitting inside watching TV.
I tried using wireties (or zipstrips if you prefer) for the whipping and they seem to be holding really good. I was in the hammock for about 6 hours last night being all rough on it to see what would break. Nothing
All the posts I've read about planning improvements on your next homemade are right on. I'm going to re-whip again tonight to see what I can do about getting the floppyness out of the long sides. I pulled them a little longer when I whipped them, but I think they still need some tuggin.
Thanks for the positive comments. I was scared to post my first DIY, but I was too excited and had to tell!
