Default RE: Home made Ghillie Suits

Sure, there are lots of places you can buy one already made, and if you want, I can give you some good references. You will always do better making your own since you can make it exactly how you want to. I gave you the basics f how I learned to make them from the Army. You can make whatever changes you want. Don't even have to canvas the front if you don't want. I will say this. YOu MUST, shoe goo over anyting that you sew. Definatly over where you attach the net on the back for additional support.
There is much more satisfaction to making your own. It will take you close to 40 hours if you build it to the Army school standard. A long tedious task, but worth it. Oh, and don't strip Jute in the house. Your Wife will shoot you for the mess you will make. And, you WILL burn up her vacume trying to clean up.
