    Yeah, I can try to get some pics up when I'm done. This is very much a back-burner project, so who knows when I'll finish. I got a good amount done this weekend, but who knows when my next opportunity to work on it will come.

    I finished attaching all the corner tie-out reinforcement patches, rolled hems, and the ridgeline French seam.

    Need to attach grosgrain over the ridgeline French seam, and the grosgrain corner tie-outs. I'm also planning on adding side pullouts which is something I haven't done before and am a little nervous about.

    That looks real good. While cat cuts are not considered necessary on poly, they still look great and tighten things up a bit more than straight edges. Nice work

    Finished one corner of my tarp tonight. I got a lineloc 3 (love 'em) on the tip and a beastie D behind that just for a backup or if I opt for an internal pole mod down the road.

    Finally found some time and decent weather to take some pics of my tarp. It is done except for the pullouts. I've kind of had this project on hold as I have been finishing up a bridge hammock, but now that is done and I'll get back on with finishing this tarp in the next month or so. I'm pleased with the slight cat cuts. They are keeping the bottom edge tighter for sure, but I don't think I've lost much coverage.

    Great job! Plus, that camo blends well with your current surroundings.
    Good luck,
