Just finished my first DIY tarp thanks to all you fine folks. A 11'X10' hex with doors out of 1.1 oz sil-nylon. Came in right at 2 lbs with all the rigging. Man that paracord is heavy stuff. Made it for a friend of mine and he is going to have a nice rig for this winter. If he want to shave the weight of rigging he can have the joy of building that.
Now off to do my tarp..... 11X10 rectangle with a Sgt Rock hiking pole mod. and Lash-It rigging.
Well that all sounds nice, but I DON'T BELIEVE YOU!
Pics?

Yup, without pics I'm pretty sure this never happened
Wow never realised paracord was THAT heavy, my diy winter tarp comes in at 20.5oz ready to setup (except stakes).
Agree Pics or it didn't happenI'd replace the paracord with Zing-it or something that won't stretch.
