    The best way to make a Spinn tarp

    Ok peeps i got my hands on some spinn... in a few weeks when i can sew again i plan on making my first Spinn tarp so i ask

    what is the best way to go at it.... can spinn be glued or taped ?
    or just sew it like i would a normal tarp ?

    i figure i would ask befor i start cutting and sewing
    It puts the Underquilt on it's hammock ... It does this whenever it gets cold

    I've always sewn spinn just like silnylon. The trick these days is to find spinn material that is waterproof.

    You want to sew it, but this time don't draw a bunch of lines with sharpie like you did that purdy blue quilt you made.
