I don't think I've ever wanted anything this badly. At least not in my adult life.
It's been three weeks today so I'm expecting notice of shipment sometime in the next seven days.

Thank you. I couldn't seem to figure out where to get fiber glass or what it would be used for, and then I remembered..... Autobody work uses fiberglass.
Thanks again.

I made mine the same way. Except I made one end a 16 inch opening with drawstring, so I can slide it over my hammock and off to an end in the event that bugs weren't obnoxious.

I want to make one of those fancy feast stoves. Where can I get the materials?

Hey I was just curious, will I get an email if I have a change of status on my order? I'm awaiting fulfillment now, but when They ship out will I get an Email?

Man these look like sooo much fun! I have to attend one of these sooner or later!

Hey have a blast gang! I won't make it but man next time I got to get in on this.
I just bought quilts to complete my sweet up and I love to fly fish!

I heard there kind of flies are great on the ME coast for stripers.
Not that I'm experienced.... I just heard that.

I DIY'd my first hammock a year ago. Since there have done several hammocks a few tarps and one 3/4 underquilt with climasheild.
I'm stoked to get this great gear and chose not to DIY based on my...

Very nice!
I suggest getting a pre cut tarp kit. Cutting feels like the hardest part to me.

I think you guys might be able to help me. I want to camp/hang on the coast of Maine in June. I want to do some coastal fly fishing. Any advice on where?

Awesome! Nice job.

All of this sounds rather intriguing.... My gear collection has been building up too.

Cool that's what I was thinking too. Who cares if the corners leak? They are a long way from your head. Lol.

I feel that they are worth it. I almost had an anxiety attack thinking I cut my other one incorrectly. And that one didn't have cat cuts. Lol.

Well here's a couple. Lol. I have to hang it and silnet it then I'll get some good pics.139209139210

I'm sewing the last of the rolled edges on my second tarp. It was a pre cut 12' Hex from RBTR.
I'm learning sewing techniques and developing more skills with each project.

That's thinking with your dipstick Jimmy! Lol.
Seriously though... very clever idea.

Agreed! I watched his videos and begun thinking, "Wow, this guy is slightly odd/crazy/entertaining and he makes some great points. I've got to try this."
Shug is one if the most entertaining people...

Lol. Good comparison. I thought the same thing. After typy finish a project I'm always thinking how could I have done that better?[emoji57]

I must agree with your feedback so far. It looks great and you learned alot. So money well spent the way I see it.

Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk

I didn't do step 3 on my hex and it came out fine. Yeah there is a hanging seam on the underside but it sealed great and I haven't had any issue with it yet. Granted I made it only a few weeks ago...

I used cadmium yellow for my hammock's inside layer and it has definitely had the same see here in New England. The color very closely resembles the same color of my pumpkin and squash blossoms.

I've heard that longer means more comfort. I figure it means more room to get your perfect lay, but I'm certainly not qualified to answer your question. Maybe some one with more experience and/or...

Well I got my underquilt made so if nothing comes up its likely I'm going to pop in for a night.

Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk

Wow! You've clearly done this a bunch!
Thanks for the great advice.
I sewed it with climasheild down and went a little faster than I should have. Impatience is a weakness I know all to well. ...

I bought the underquilt kit from makeyourgear.com and just completed it. I had trouble with it. I think it came out functional but it's not an award winner for sure.
I'll get some picks tomorrow, ...

That is a beautiful quilt.
I want to make one but it's still a ways out. I have skills to culminate and more immediate needs.
Thanks for sharing though. I've always got my eye out for the next...

Yellow sounds fine to me. But I used a cadmium yellow for the interior of my hammock and it appears bees are really attracted to it.
It is basically the same color as a pumpkin blossom.
Anyone...

Very nice.
