Easy enough to remove more material if I ever change my mind. It weighs in at 8 and 1/8 oz (but could get lighter if I removed some shockcord). I call it the Funky Fronkey bug net.
    Great job dude! Those skeeters don't stand a chance.

    Thanks for the video. I have the same netting and thought that I would have to extend the bottom edge for my 10'-6" to 11' hammocks. Your video with the shorter hammock confirms that I will and has saved me from part of the trial and error.
