    Mesh Snake skins????

    I'm looking at getting some snake skins for my tarp. The mesh snake skins from Mountiangoat look nice but my question is, Will I have any snagging issue if I leave my figure 9 carabiners attached to the tarp. Anyone have snagging or ripping issue? Should I just go with sinylon instead?

    I have 2 sets and plan on ordering a 3rd. My impression of her mesh sleeves is they are the perfect balance between light and durable.

    I use figure nines with her mesh sleeves. No snag because you keep the nines on the outer ends of the sleeves. They never have to be pulled through the mesh. I don't keep any hardware on the pull outs if that is to what you are referring.

    Yeah, all hardware etc. is beyond the end of the skins. If you figure 8 wrap up your lines (to avoid tangles) they pack neatly into the pockets she puts on them.

    I use a Juki & Pfaffs w/ assorted attachments, and have serviced lots of vintage machines. Any questions?
