    Received my MacCat Ultra SpinnUL

    I emailed the order to Brian on Monday and my sexy new MacCat Ultra SpinnUL is here on Friday! Feeling this thing is like rubbing new titanium! OK, so I have a problem ...

    I have to say it's a fine piece of workmanship! I got the grey one. It's already seam sealed. The weight came in at 11.5 oz plus 0.4 oz stuff sack, most of that is the cord-lock :-)

    Even though it's light (and this is a big tarp), it is obvious that it is soundly constructed and will stand up to the elements. Tie-outs are substantial and well re-enforced. I don't know how he did it for the weight.

    The finished dimensions are spot on, unlike some tarp makers who advertise the cut dimensions before hemming.

    It's a pleasure doing business with Brian and, as his website says, his advertising budget is zero, so I am spreading the word.

    Did I mention the super fast shipping?

    Thanks,
    Mike

    His tarps are top notch. I think if he did advertise, he couldn't keep up.
    Is that too much to ask? Girls with frikkin' lasers on their heads?

    Proud owner of a few MacCat tarps. Functional, simple, tough, and well priced; awfully hard to beat. The Spinn is just icing on the cake; good icing mind you.
    Trust nobody!
