Misery loves company

Because I'm selfless like that, I wanted to share with you all my sad....

I was on the floor, on my knees, slicing up some pretty ROBIC XL and, whilst adjusting myself to move up along the cutline....

I pierced the fabric with my hot knife!

3 yards wasted. A sacrifice to the Hammock gods of old.

Mourn with me, brothers and sisters.

Oh well someone has to sacrifice

Get this up on a table before this happens again.

Those are going to be some beautiful stuff sacks....

Not for a bridge hammock. I like my tailbone intact.

My condolences on your loss.

Gear hammock?

That sucks! Weve all made mistakes like that. At least I have.

That sucks, but be happy that you only wasted 3 yards of raw fabric. I managed to slice my Wilderness Logics 10° underquilt with my hot knife while cutting fabric... Still haven't repaired it.

Now that would make me cry...
