    DIY hammock #4

    Just finished building my 4th hammock. I really like the feel of my Argon camo hammock, I built a while back. So, I decided I wanted another one in this fabric. I ordered 4 yds. Of Argon 1.6 in olive green and some other stuff. As always, it was a pleasure dealing with Dutch. Only 4 days to receive the materials. The goal with this one was to incorporate a Knotty mod. After laying in it this afternoon, it my just be the most comfortable one yet. The dimensions are 132" x 57".

    A beauty for sure. That color is fantastic. How do you like the argon?

    Work with your hands, use your brain, drink good beer.

    Nice job, I am learning to use my thread piston so I can do some projects like this. I just made a ground sheet "my version" for my Helinox chair and will post pics.

    I love the Argon. Kinda feels similar to a bed sheet, to me.
