    So, did anyone find a source for nylon ripstop camo?

    Lightbulb Source for ACU digital ripstop

    I found a good source, since I was looking everywhere for it myself. Try DIY Tactical. They have 1.9 oz ripstop, and cordura in the ACU pattern. They also have a bunch of other stuff as well. The webbing is the right color "Foliage Green" so you can get the right color webbing to match. I think I also saw some at OWFINC, but it was more espensive. Good luck.

    Their 1.9 is coated, no good for a hammock unless you're interested in waking up in a puddle of sweat.

    ACU Digital

    You are right about it being coated. One suggestion would be to make the tarp (the part that is seen the most) out of the coated camo, and the actual hammock out of solid foliage green colored ripstop. It might be hard to find that exact color uncoated, but it is really close to a shade of grey. I have found uncoated 1.1 oz grey ripstop that is darn close to foliage green. Anyways, sorry I wasn't much help and good luck.

    I'm using some of the foliage green 1.9oz from DIY tactical. It's a waterproof material. Very nice, but also coated. Using it for stuff sacks and other assorted stuff. It is relatively inexpensive too.
