Newbie here. I made a 10 foot hammock the other day. I used 1.9 ripstop. A Rolled type whipping. I really cranked down tight on the whipping. I noticed a one inch rip right below (towards the center) the whipping. I can fix it , but why did it rip? Im guessing I point loaded one section of the ripstop. Would it be better to not tighten the whipping so tight? Any pointers? Thanks
Id like to figure this out before I start making my next hammock.
