    DIY Hammocks, suspension odds and ends

    Prices include shipping CONUS. For funsies, I will include one imitation buff with each the packages below.

    1) 11' ACU double layer hammock. This hammock is constructed of 1.0oz ACU ripstop nylon that was all the rage about five years ago. 11' long and the full width of the fabric ~64". There is a hole on each side between the layers to insert a pad. The places where the layers are sewn together are edged with black grosgrain, but the gaps are just the selvages, which are actually very clean looking and solid. Stuff sack is a woodland camo with a very thin silicone coating on one side. I'm including the suspension I have on it right now: Orange whoopies, 6' black straps with orange stitching, toggles, adjustable Zing-it ridgeline and a little one pocket ridgeline organizer. $50 45

    2) Tablecloth hammock. Navy blue polyester taffeta with 9.5' finished length. Triple stitched channel ends, with a small silnylon two closure stuff sack. I have never used this hammock, just did the stitching. Blue whoopies, 6' black straps, toggles, adjustable Zing-it/Lash-it hybrid ridgeline. $40 $35

    3) Random suspension odds and ends. Pair 5.5' camo straps, a vintage aluminum Dutch biner, pair Dutch buckles, pair descending rings, adjustable hybrid Zing-it/Lash-it ridgeline, pair blue whoopies, pair 500kg carabiners, and an adjustable Amsteel ridgeline. $35 $30

    Could you explain what is ACU for those who weren't around during the craze? Is it a nylon or polyester? Which fabric is it most similar to? (HyperD, Robic, Hexon, Argon, etc.)

    The fabric is a purefinish ripstop nylon, meaning it's not calendered and had no coating (DWR). I find it very breathable. It's nothing fancy, it was just cheap and plentiful.
