So, apparently my family saw me say something about hammockforums on Facebook... and for Xmas in my stocking I got... an ENO single nest... so that's one piece of the puzzle out of the way... still gonna DIY the tarp and the bug net but the good news is:

I've got a hammock now!

Fronkey, that bug net looks simple and awesome - I had seen other plans and was not too excited about zippers - yours is awesome and I'm definitely making it - I have some bug netting material but I'll have to measure it - it's in two rectangles so I'd have to stitch the two pieces together along the ridgeline - I'll work on it once I find a sewing machine to borrow

I'll end up making whoopies eventually, already "borrowed" a crochet hook from my GF for splicing - I've begun making a DIY materials list for my projects so I can buy lots of stuff at once to save on shipping, in the meantime I ditched those crazy heavy 'biners and replaced 'em with those chain links that have a threaded side for connecting chains - the ones I have on there are rated for 660lbs and weigh a lot less than the 'biners that come w/the eno...
