    Bummer! I'm jealous. But you did achieve your goal, Dutch - I'm planning an underquilt project. Thanks

I'm thinking a HikingDad-style DIY bridge hammock with a removable bugnet. My little twist on his excellent videos will be to make a dual-layer PolyD 1.2 hammock, and make the bugnet fully zippered, removable, and built with a tarp-style ridge line.

    Thanks for offering this tremendous opportunity! It really got me thinking, and it was a ton of fun.



    Hammock Body
    4 yards PolyD 1.2, Black
    4 yards PolyD 1.2, Brick Red
    25 feet 1/2" polyester webbing (does Dutchware sell this? If not, I will provide)
    1 spool Gutterman thread, Brick Red

    Suspension
    25 feet 7/64" Amsteel, Red (for one suspension triangle and one whoopie sling)
    25 feet 7/64" Amsteel, Black (for the suspension triangle and whoopie sling on the other side)
    Spreader Bars (I will provide)
    Dutchware Ti Bridge Hammock End Kit (set of 4)
    Dutchware Whoopie Hooks, or prototype bridge hammock connector! (one pair)
    Dutchware Ti Dutch Clips (one pair)
    25 feet 1" black webbing (to make my own tree-huggers)

    Bug Net
    4 yards No-See-Um netting
    50 feet grosgrain (does Dutchware sell this? If not, I will provide)
    25 feet light-duty zipper
    25 feet shock cord
    Mitten Hooks (one pair)
    Mini Cord Locks (one pair)
    1 spool Gutterman thread, Black

    Other
    Splicing Needle (the bigger one, for Amsteel)
    Some Argon to make a stuff sack and spreader bar sack.
    A handfull of scrap fabrics to practice sewing on!
