Here is an idea to speed up the construction of the hammocks.
Get a wooden kebab stick,the one I used is 3mm in diameter. cut it in half. Take a 30mm square of the canvass and roll it around the stick. Use the pointed half of the stick to apply a line of adhesive along the free end.Roll lightly between fingers and remove. Repeat 100 times +/-.

Hi Spigs >>Get a wooden kebab stick,the one I used is 3mm in diameter. cut it in half. Take a 30mm square of the canvass and roll it around the stick. Use the pointed half of the stick to apply a line of adhesive along the free end.Roll lightly between fingers and remove. Repeat 100 times +/-. << Sounds like a great idea for all the repetative work on the hammocks. Many thanks, Best regards, Ian Ian Builds in progress: E-type, HMS Victory, HMS Endeavour, HMS Soverein of the Seas Wish list: Bentley Blower http://forum.model-space...spx?g=posts&m=30439

here's another idea - get a longer 3mm dia stick - roll a piece of hammok material 30mm x 90mm. roll the material along the stick. Glue the edge of the hammock to stop them unravelling. Remove the stick and cut the rolled hammock material to 30mm lengths - repeat 30 +/- times  You do not need a parachute to skydive. You only need a parachute to skydive twice.
