    Question S to S "sil" bag material & tarp questions!

    So I have an XXS orange (dunno if that matters a hill o' beans) really, really lightweight silnylon drawstring Sea to Summit brand bag.

    Question #1: Does anyone know what weight this silnylon is? I scored about 14 yards of the Wally World version of this (Sea to Summit bag) material.

    Question #2: Is this weight what everyone makes their hammocking tarps out of?

    I went back to the same Wal-mart yesterday (one month after the initial score) to see if they had any more silnylon left...and lo and behold, I got some more, but it is heavier.

    I am jumping up and down ready to make one of Black Knight's Black Cat tarps (Mom sews and has agreed to help! Lucky me!)

    Thanks for any insight you can provide!
