    Hello from Camano Island, WA

    Hi everyone...!

    FNG here with lots of curiosity and enthusiasm for learning how to make and customize a hammock.

    I don't have much experience hanging, sewing ripstop nylon, etc... but have MYOG for SCUBA diving and various jetskiing projects and can definitely see the advantages to understanding everything by making it yourself. a bit of pride in ownership this way too. Hoping to make myself usefull as well as be a decent student.

    Regards,
    Dennis
