    Cool Tactical Tarp --Tactarp--

    Make a quick tactical tarp Tactarp.

    I wanted a small tarp for...
    cooking under,
    keeping gear dry under,
    Day trips and walks with the family in the woods,
    Very simple no ridge line,
    2.1m x 1.45m, big enough for the whole family in the rain
    grossgrain micro tieouts,
    double rolled hem,
    with bag weighs in at 178g - 6.3oz
    with x6 4m guy lines 250g - 8.8oz

    Double coated both sides 40den silnylon.
    Took about 4 hours to make with bag.

    One piece of fabric so no joint no sealing needed
    This it will go in my EDC bag as its small enough

    The winds will blow their own freshness into you, and the storms their energy,
    while cares will drop away from you like the leaves of Autumn." — John Muir

    Nice idea. I think this would be a good idea as a starter DIY project for someone like myself.

    The spelling of "tacticle" in the title had me a little confused....

    Americans and the British. Two people separated by a common language. We talk funny and y'all spell funny. It's all's well that ends well. Nice bit of kit. Well done.

    I'd say it's the other way around... there are an insane number of different accents and regional dialects over here considering the size of the island. You guys changed the spelling...
