Super happy with this setup and just in time for my 3-day trip. I received my material from DutchWare, and I immediately begun making it. I finished over the weekend, and even had a little storm trooper willing to test it for me. I used suggestions from some on here to make it 11' instead of my original plan of 9' or 10'. I'm glad to say I listened as this has an incredible lay! Despite the double cost for the extra fabric on the edges, It adds to the over all comfort, and it gives it a nice look. This material feels so nice and it blows what I'm used to, (ENO DN) out of the water. I really took my time with sewing and it came out fantastic.

Specs:
72"x132", DutchWare Argon 1.6 ripstop nylon - choclate brown/black with end channels and 8" amsteel continuous loops, fixed amsteel structural ridgeline, and a matching double ended stuff sack. I have no way of weighing it. I'm using Dutch Buckles, 10' tree straps from DutchWare, and amsteel "dog bones" for the suspension. I'm using the carabiners in place of the descender rings I still need to get for the meantime.
