    DIY-a-thon

    Got myself a sewing machine on the weekend. Had a half day at work today and spotlight had a 30% off everything sale today.
    Long story short I've made three gathered end hammocks, two stuff sacks and a shelf for one of my TDS tripods.
    One of the hammocks is a hot pink ripstop for my daughter, one is a double layer ripstop for my brother's birthday present and the last one is an Auscam assymetrical for me.
    All super comfy.
    Pretty happy with my progress so far.

    I used that same hot pink from Spotlight for my daughters top quilt. Easy to find in the dark

    Now with pictures.
    This is my asymmetrical Auscam hammock on my aluminium TDS and my daughter's pink ripstop nylon.

    I've had the Auscam laying around for a while. Didn't get it from spotlight, pinched some from a mate who had a whole roll. I'm not sure where he got the roll from, sorry. I'll hit him up to see where he got it from or if he's got any left and let you know...
