    I think so too with the way I have a biner on the ends of my hammock. Thanks, Mule
    Predictions are risky, especially when it comes to the future.

    it's not that often that conditions are right for that to happen, but it sure can.
    but i believe your right about the buckles & rings. i can't see a significant amount of water getting past them.
    for those that don't use rings or buckles, speer hammocks sells a drip stopper that's really small & light.

    and i liked what one guy did to hold a strip of fabric against the flat webbing.
    he used a girl's hair clip.
    I too will something make and joy in it's making
