    Everything arrived today

    1. BIAS Camper Hammock and Bugnet

    2. Toxaway Tarp.

    3. A set of whoopieslings from Stu

    4. Ontario TAK-1 Knife (just to add to my collection)

    Hmmm am I missing anything?

    Hung the hammock in my backyard and I can tell already its more comfortable/spacious than my ENO and the sides don't fall on my face, the material has a different feel but its just that -different type of material- my ENO is a bit silky and this ripstop(I think that's what it is) feels more plasticky/stiff but still very smooth.

    Construction wise, it was able to support my 250+ pounds so you go figure, the lay and more details... when I comeback from my hang this weekend.

    The bugnet looks nice and big, I asked Brian to add two tie-outs on the sides just to run some cord and get the bug off my face

    The tarp looks solid, well made, lightweight, stitches look good, I will apply sealer to the bottom side of the stitching (any tricks of the trade?), No rain on the forecast but Ill pitch it anyways just for practice.

    Thanks to all the guys who posted on my thread and helped me narrow my selections and options.

    Details and pics after the holiday...

    Waiting on my BIAS to arrive. Give a review when you get back. There doesn't seem to be many pictures of the BIAS in action around here.

    Here is a link to a review I made of my bias wwm. Not a Bias camper, but the quality of the workmanship is just as good. There are a few pictures in the article.
