Hey guys, I made this tarp back in January but have been waiting to get some use out of it before I made this post.
I started off with 8 yards of grey 1.1 silnylon 2nds from DIYgearsupply.com, and I used their plans, modified to my needs.

You can see it has only has doors on one side. I got to really liking this style while using my Tadpole with the door kit on one side.
I've taken this tarp out on a few multi-day trips and several backyard overnights and I can tell you it can hold it's own in some pretty bad weather. One trip we had wind gusts up to 35-40 mph and driving rain both nights and I stayed totally dry and comfortable. It was also nice to tie back my hammock during the day and have a huge dry place to play with gear or just hang out with my kids.
Here is a video walk around, let me know what you think.
