Nice tarp, I made one using the DIY winter tarp plans out of some plastic painters tarps and it is a great size. Where did you get that type of tyvek at?

I saw that kite making Tyvek yesterday and wondered if it was the same stuff.

Like the plain white better than having Tyvek company branding labeled all over the tarp.
I looked this material up and read the specs and it says that it is water resistant, not water proof. Have you tested it for dryness? Please keep us posted

The description on Amazon says that it is waterproof??
Tough Dupont(R)Tyvek(R). A waterproof plastic paper made of spun-bonded olefin fibers, Tyvek is a popular choice for kite workshops. Our Type 1443R Tyvek even feels like cloth. 60" wide. 40 grams/sq. meter.
