I've read Ed Speer's book on hammock camping and have been to the TTTrailgear website to buy some ripstop nylon to make a hammock, but their 1.9 ripstop is out of stock. Does anyone have any recommendations for a DIY hammock noob as to where to get ripstop at a reasonable price? Also, I'm 6'1" and weigh around 170-175 - do I need to get 1.9, or would I be fine with 1.1? I'd like to keep the fabric as wide as possible (around 65") to make things as comfy as I can get them. I've tried to find some other places on line, but I'm not completely sure what to look for or be wary of and I also haven't been able to find sheets that are much wider than 50". Any advice is greatly appreciated.
