Hey there.
I am looking for options for how to attach an underquilt to my DIY bridge hammocks. I have UQs that have channels with shockcord running through them. So, I'm interested in sewing "anchors" into the four corners of the hammock body for the UQ shockcord to hook on to.
Some options I've been looking at:
1. Dutchware: Light weight and durable, and I know they work, but they seem a bit sharp and my hammock body is 1.1 ripstop so I'm concerned about damaging the material.
2. Sew loops at the corner and then use mini-biners to hook the shockcord to the loop. Simple, effective, but I'd rather not add 4 biners to my set up.
3. Mitten hooks: Basically, they'd be attached just like the Dutchware but are made of plastic. I like that they would swivel and have a bit of give, plus they are not sharp. I don't know how durable they are or how long they would last.
Any thoughts on these options? Any other ideas floating around out there?
