    Photo of Tie Outs Please

    I hope I'm not out of line asking but I'm about to make another tarp and would like to see a photo of the ground tie outs on a UGQ tarp. I'm going to use edge binding on this one and I'm wondering if the binding leaves the tarp and loops to form the tie out or if the tie out is a totally separate piece of grosgrain?

    Thanks!

    Have a look at this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pd8fg0rzA48

    Around 1:54 you will see a close-up of the tie-outs.

    Thanks, I finally got around to watching it. I still can't tell if they're running the grosgrain continuous and looping it for the tie out or if the binding terminates at each corner and the tie out is a completely separate piece. Can anyone tell me that part?

    I just finished my new tarp. I just ran a 6" length of 7/8" grosgrain and 1/2" loop 4" long perpendicular. Seems to hold very well.
