    A DIY Hex in DutchWare’s Argon-Sil

    This 11’ RL Hex-Tarp in camo Argon-Sil is the final component in my conquest for a 100% DIY Hammock Setup. Although I’m happy with its finished weight of 8.2oz (11.4oz with suspension, guys and nails), its ability to compress down to the size of a Beer Can caught me by surprise (Thanks Dutch!).

    As for my “100% DIY Hammock Setup” conquest (subtitles; A five year mission to seek out new ways to infuriate my wife), I’m pleased to report “mischief managed”. Everything between the trees was laid out, cut, thread-injected, stuffed and/or spliced on my dining room table.

    Dang camo, can't see the tarp.

    Good looking tarp and the weight is close that of the cubens.

    Went looking on Dutch's site for the fabric and did not see it, he must be out.
