Looks good to me.
One thing I would suggest is to at least get some cinch buckles and see if you dont like them better than the rings. Many of us here have switched from the SMC rings to the cinch buckles. There is a $10 minimum order. Give em as stocking stuffers to your hanging buddies. http://www.onrope1.com/store/index.p...d=118&parent=4

hanging buddies? you must have me confused with someone else. I am solo in this endeavor. And I plan on using TeeDee's biner hitch, or something to that extent. explaining 30 feet of spectra and so little webbing. Is there any way I could cut down the price of my wishlist? the stared ones total $72. I want to get it down some more but cannot see how.

Does anyone want to donate or sell some stuff seen here? Since many of you dont use the rings anymore would you be able to part with them? and 2 Camp wire nano biners too?

cause shipping is going to add up too, and I, erm, santa, doesnt have too much $$ on him now...

8 yards of webbing is a little bit.

hennessy hammock offer 3 lengths of webbing. 2 yards is the middle size. so 4 yards for the huggers and 4 yards in case. I can always use webbing, right? the least amount of webbing I would get is 5 yards. the price difference is minimal.

you know you will need it sooner or later

Will you need any crossgrain ribbon??

[skar578]

jeffjen, I have spectra listed, I am leaning towards amsteel cause it is quite a bit less, and stronger for its weight. I dont think i will need ribbon, mostly the stared items, emphasis on rings and biners.
