Cheapest and most comfortable hammock

[amwolffman]

Yes, I realize the title of this post is very idealistic, but hey, one can dream.
I am a college student (i.e. broke) and love my hammock camping.
I currently have an ENO DN that I used with a DIY bugnet and whoopies.

I am looking to go to a smaller sized hammock but I am 6'3 200 lbs and need to stretch out when I sleep.
Are there any vendors that make a lightweight hammock with a footbox the will fit me that is priced under ~$60.

The BIAS weight weenie with knotty mod appears to be the closest.

Thanks in advance,
-Wolffman

You pretty much hit it. Have one of the first and love it. Doubled the Knotty Mods on mine, never looked back

Provided you have access to a sewing machine and can find Walmart ripstop, just make your own. Talk about inexpensive. I'm not far off from your height and weight and 126" has proven to be a good size. Not too big. Not too small.

My sewing skills are pretty week, the only thing I have made is my bugnet.
Also my sewing machine is literally from the 70s, and has some issues.

I do want to try it though and it may be the route I take, I was just seeing if there are any vendors who I am overlooking.

A little sewing and one of those Tableclothfactory sheets and you should be a happy camper!

Literally haahha, but thanks for the responses,guys/gals.

I'll look more into the BIAS hammock but I think I'll be testing my sewing skills again....and if I mess up, I'll have an unlimited supply of stuff sacks!

I just saw a thread about a new website called Northwoods hammocking. They had a netted asymmetrical hammock for 50 bucks with everything. may be something worth looking in to.

I think if you are speaking of the Wolf hammock, once you choose your netting option, the price changes to about $121.

Yep.

The pricing IS a little confusing. I thought it was same price with or without...

New website and a little more fine tuning might be helpful.
