purchased a Speer winter tarp - last owner had tabs sewn for ext pole mod - I kinda like the idea of internal structure, keeping wind at bay etc.
used over door poles from my MSR tent, the fit well enough and fit into the beastie dee at the tarp corners and have it strung it up in the DIY hammock stand
Used 1/8 bungee cord as test tied to ends.
Supposed to be 3 days of crappy / awesome weather starting tonight. Rain, snow, rain / snow mix, rain, freezing rain mixed with snow, windy, windy with blowing snow... anyway will see if : 1. my waterproofing on the top seam holds back rain (had one small leak previous), and B. will the poles stay put. looks like I may have to adjust, tarp looks a little slack.
