Was thinking about a massive 6 inch loft UQ for camping in N. Michigan this winter . Why don't people just make the hammock an integral part of the down tubes . I really don't want to screw with fancy suspensions that allow air gaps if not adjusted just perfectly .
My thought is to sew myself up 12 6 inch wide tubes with differential cut . Sew them together and then just sew some uninsulated end pieces on to make them into a hammock .
The tubes will be about 6 feet long and the end pieces will make up the other 10 feet for the hammock . This should wrap around me like a nice cozy womb for the expected 0 or below temps . A top quilt will still be used .
Whats wrong with this plan other then weight , which will not be so important since this will be brought in on a sled whenever it's used .
