    Help with Mega Ogee setup?

    I need to poke around Gargoyle's site more to see if the answers are there.

    What I'm wondering is if there is a diagram out there of the Mega laid out flat with the tie outs marked as to which ones to use for what configuration? I've watched the vids and maybe I just need more time to play with mine.

    With me being a noob, I may have gotten in a little over my head with this tarp or I'm just a little slow, LOL.

    Thanks in advance!

    yep, the best is to play with it!

    the thread on the two opposing tie-outs is different (on mine orange) than the others, so it's easy to find them. if you pull your ridge line through those it will run vertically along the simmetrical axis of this layout:

    The best thing to do is to make a single ridge line, put two prussics on it and mini s biners on those.. Makes it easy to disconnect and try different set ups easily and quickly..
    Did you try the links on his web page? Mega in the woods (first one) shows the many options.. Spend some time goofin with it..Trust me you will love it..
    We would be one step closer to world peace, if everyone slept in a hammock..

    Thanks kobold for the diagram.
