    I appreciate having the pattern posted. I favor line locs at the corners as well.

    I'm curious as to the pro's and con's of the single sided door approach?

    For me, doors on just one side makes a lot of sense. I can close them and tuck my hammock all the way back in the corner keeping me really protected while also giving me plenty of room on the open side to keep my stool, pack or just enjoy the view. Single doors saves weight and with a little careful site selection I have the same protection as a 4 season tarp.

    I like the single door feature as well. I usually close only one side of the tarp anyhow. The prussic in the middle of the RL is a nice touch for pulling the doors back. Looks good, be proud

    Nice, dangerous.....I have a Hennesey Hex and the plan was adding doors on both ends. I just put my order in for some silnylon.....I like the idea of doors on just one end. I may have some extra silnylon left over....
