    I have one that resides permanently outside attached to a tree. While it is still in one piece considering that I enjoy the feel of ripstop far more than the feel of the parachute material. It has an end channel that a rope is strung through for its suspension. Nothing too fancy.

    They have a two-person version sold on Overstock.com that has a 450 lb rating. Looks like an ENO clone. Wonder what it weighs?

    I have a cargo parachute already, and was thinking about asking Gargoyle to make a hammock or two.
    And Gargoyle maybe you should have put your post in the "Without Merit' thread. God only knows it is lacking of merit.
