I mentioned this in another thread, but tell me if you think it would work to make a Risk Zhammock with mesh as the bottom layer... I was picturing maybe one layer of breatheable 1.9(?) for the top layer and mesh (maybe noseeum) underneath holding a pad.

Does anyone know or remember anyone who has made one like this? If so I'd love to read about it.

  1. Do you think mesh would be strong enough to hold a pad?
  2. Would the mesh add enough support so that you could use 1.1? Or would you have to use 1.9?
  3. How much weight do you think might be saved by using mesh rather than 1.1 nylon? (In other words, would the weight savings be worth it?)


Just curious... thanks.
