Greetings all, new to the forum. I am a long time UL backpacker and DIY'er. I am starting down the hammock hanging road and had a few questions. Did quite a bit of searching first.

I plan on picking up my hammock material at OWF as I am lucky enough to have them close, but I am unsure as to what material. My plans are for a single layer hammock, gathered end, and hopefully adding a shelf similar to the WB Hammocks. I am six feet, 200 pounds. Can I get away with 1.1 oz sil? Recommendations for amount of fabric?

I plan on ordering my suspension from Whoopie Slings. I would like to get my total system as light as possible, so any recommendations would be great.

Thanks for all the help.

Scott
