    Dale Gribble: I'm thinking, "new hammock." For me, laying and swaying in a hammock is like a steady morphine drip without the risk of renal failure.

    I bought 9 oz of down from HG which was roughly $60 and the fabric and shockcord was about $23. It's a heck of a lot easier than I thought going into it and overall you do save a bunch of money. However, the small cottage industries make a fantastic product and I would highly recommend them as well.

    Nice job. You have way more patience than I do.
    There is still down EVERYWHERE.
    Thanks a lot, patience was a huge part.

    Tell that to my actual gf. She keeps trying to get me to sew anything that rips. "Dang it woman! I make gear not sew clothes!"

    This is the girl I've been dating for the past two years.


    And I still chose the hammock.

    You know, I like hammocks as much as the next guy, but I'm thinking maybe you need a psychiatric evaluation
