Here is my obligatory first DIY tarp post.
2nd Gen silpoly from rbtr.
Cat cut sides.
Bias tape tie outs.
reinforced the tie outs with silpoly scraps glued at 45 degrees with silnet seam seal.
Rolled hems.
Ridgeline is 13ft, french-flat felled & seam sealed.
Please critique.

Last pic is my original hh fly for color comparison.
Modified plans.

Excellent job Dudeman!!
I haven't taken the plung on a diy tarp yet. That large amount of fabric to work with at one time kinds freaks me out.
I've made a TQ and UQ, accessories....but no tarps yet. I am a perfectionist at times so that scares me also.

Nice work! Silpoly is a great material.
Critique what!?! Looks awesome!! Great job!!

That looks very impressive.
Great minds must think alike! I just posted a tarp in the Dutchware forum almost identical to this, I even used DIY Gear Supply's diagram and modded it for a 12' tarp. Yours looks a lot better than mine though, nice job!

What color is your tarp? Don't know if it's my screen or what but I can't tell.
