Question for all you guys out here in hammockland...Do any of you have a custom jarbidge out of m-50 or m-90 fabric? For the probably few that have something along those lines, how much different in overall weight did it make between that and the stock version? My wife has pretty much given me the go ahead to buy one after we return from our vacation in a few weeks and want to find out some particulars before I do this.
My plan would be to have the outer shell as m50 and the inner shell be m90 fabric using cs apex for the insul. any comments, questions, or concerns?
The reason I am going this route is not price, but versatility of synthetic. The weight between an apex uq and a down uq is negligible to me for 3 season uq's by being only 2 or 3 oz different in overall weight (14 oz is the lightest stock down uq I could find). I was thinking that if I used m50 and m90, I could probably get a weight darn near identical to a down 20*uq along with a couple of mods once I get it in hand.
I am sure Paul would have no trouble with this after exchanging correspondance with him just curious about this future purchase...
Any and all help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks for looking!
