    DIY Bridge Hammock

    My first bridge hammock. Had lots of fun making it. Spreaders are temporary.
    72x54
    Double layer
    Grey 1.7 ripstop bottom
    Olive nylon inside
    End caps are Olive ripstop

    Looks good! So, is it comfy?

    How wide are the spreaders?

    My wife gave it the thumbs up yesterday. It's a little on the narrow side at the center for her but she said it was defiantly more her style.

    Great job. Where'd you buy the webbing for the sides?

    I used mule tape and it was free. I went dumpster diving for it.
    Its the heavier weight tape, the 2500 lb pulling strength.
