So we finally finished both tablecloth gathered end hammocks and got a chance to hang them in the back yard for a test, in between the rain storms that came through this weekend. The boy's is just about perfect. Mine is still needing some fine tuning. Still fiddling with the ridgeline and the whoopies. I think this is just going to be a work in progress. This was the inaugural hang for my rig so I'm sure it is normal to start working on the tweaks here and there. It was amazingly comfortable but it was a bit bathtubbish. I used the Just Jeff method and think I'm going to redo the ends and not pull the corners out and see if I can get a little more flop. Overall, I am extremely pleased and am very excited for our first real hammock camping experience this coming weekend. Best part was being able to work on these projects with little buddy. We did these with our own two hands.
