The material is that ripstop nylon digital camo it was $1.50 a yard at Walmart,,,,, I picked up thre whole roll, it is hard to find that stuff.

I have enough left for 2 more hammocks.

The bigger one is 9 feet 6 inches x 57.5' wide.

57.5" wide, will Ben fit in one or does he need a double wide?
Hope the one in the top bunk don't wet the bed!
Randy you are very creative.

Randy, fantastic setup. It looks like you may need a triple decker.
