    Need Thunderfly Measurements

    Picked up some Cuben to make a hex tarp but I would love a Cuben thunerfly. Would anyone who owns this tarp be kind enough to lay it out and give me measurements on the two edges circled in the photo. Thanks in advance!

    Lots of views. I know ownership is still limited on this tarp but someone on here has to have they could measure for me. I only need those two measurements, won't even have to be fully removed from the snakeskin.

    I likely won't get my new Thunderfly for a week yet (ordered last weekend). If no one else responds, I'll get you the measurements when it comes in.

    Thank you, sir! One other measurement I just realized I can't find on their site is the length of the ground edge. I assume it's 6 or 7 feet but if you happen to grab that measurement too that would be outstanding.

    This is what I found, but I never did find the length of the ground edge of the tarp. Using DCF, I just went with 7' for the ground edge and followed the below dimensions for adding the beak. Obviously I added seam allowances.

    Kitsapcowboy had asked me the dimensons of the "beak". From the ridgeline tie out, which is obscured by my snakeskin in the below picture, to the tie out on the beak/door is 22 inches. From the beak tie out to the corner tie out is 53 inches. I hope that helps everyone visualize.

    That came from Post #19 in this thread.

    I can try to pitch mine and get some photos for you. I suspect that their baseline measure is actually not quite 7' because my beak extends beyond the ridgeline a little bit more than the stock TF. It doesn't bother me and actually provides more coverage. Using .51 DCF and only putting the doors (beak) on one end resulted in a 6.2oz tarp so I'm pleased.
