It is safe to say that the DIY bug has bit me and bit me hard. After making a tablecloth hammock for my wife's Christmas present, I realized that building it was so fun and the finished product was so comfy that I just had to build myself one (with a few mods, of course). After finishing my DIY hammock, I couldn't help but notice the difference in size between my existing hammock (Grand Trunk Ultralight), my wife's hammock (DIY crinkle taffeta tablecloth), and my DIY hammock (DIY 100% polyester tablecloth). Both tablecloths came from tableclothsfactory.com. Both tablecloths work great, but the 100% polyester is much bulkier. Here is a pic of all three hammocks and the requisite nalgene bottle for comparison purposes. Both DIY hammocks are in a 4-liter stuff sack that I got from REI.
