I'm wanting to get busy learning the ways of hammocks and after looking at some videos and reading others postings I want to make a first project out of 1.9 ripstop to get the feel of making a hammock. Figured this would be a good way to learn the knots and pieces needed to complete one. Do you feel that 1.9 is a good choice of material considering the weight savings it gives. I like it on my pack I made, seems very strong. I'm 6ft, and right at 225 pounds for now so that is my concern with th 1.9 ripstop. What do you think.
