where did you come across this jewel.
Maybe a stupid question but can you explain the sewing channels into this? I apparently am lost when it comes to this and is there any like videos or plans for making a hammock type seat like this?
It is just folding the material over and sewing it and leaving gap for the suspension.
Some just run the suspension through and girth hitch it (like mine). Others do an 'end knot' where the suspension goes through and then back around a big wad of the material. This is definitely stronger and is probably better for our use.
Some complain that the knot method makes the spread of the hammock less repeatable and adjustable but for a hunting sling that isn't likely to matter.
Here is an excellent link:

I understand. I've just trying to think of a way to eliminate the need for a rock climbing harness also.I think it would create hot spots. These are much stronger than you would think. The ones I have seen break, broke in the middle and not at the connections
Look at my Ultralight harness thread. I'm going to try out the 92r AlpI understand. I've just trying to think of a way to eliminate the need for a rock climbing harness also.
