    Just placed my order for my new DIY Hammock!

    I was originally going to purchase the supplies for my hammock from DIY Gear Supplies after seeing some good reviews here.....I then tripped across a reference to Simply Light Designs, and similar good reviews. SLD had free shipping, so, I placed my order, just now! Going for double thickness 1.6 ripstop hammock (I'm 6'5" just over 300lbs), though I haven't decided on whipped end or bridge hammock yet. Amsteel whoopie sling and marlin spike hitch tree strap suspension. I'm super excited...planning on my first outing next weekend (hopefully I get everything in time for me to sew it all up!

    I just had to share my excitement. This will by my first hang.....EVER

    It's going to be a long wait.

    How did you place your order for a hammock and not know if you want a gathered end or bridge?

    Countrybois,

    I'm gathering from bigzaphod's post that he ordered materials for a do it yourself hammock. See the blue text in the above quote.

    I've been on SLD's website many times and was curious about a bridge hammock "model" in SLD's product line. I've looked at the product line of hammocks and did not find a bridge hammock.
