    Great job, Shug!

    I LOVE havin' side pullouts on my large tarp. It really makes things spacious under there, really helps a LOT with the wind, and helps shed rain nicely too!

    Hey! They are 36" between, 29" from ridgeline, 30" from the seam on the doors. I played around a bunch with grip clips and these spots for me were best for snow shedding and breakfast from the hammock space and head and foot space.

    I'm looking forward to Shug's film. I'm also looking forward to the results of MacEntyre's experiment with grip clips.
    No genius here .... I can hardly spell it. Read how to do it way back .... on HF I'm sure.

    I was planning to do octagons when I sew them on permanently (because they're easier than a circle); but I saw your comment about circles. Why are circles preferred? Is it just aesthetics or is there some functional difference?

    Keep on inspiring us
    Teriffic! I like the commitment!!! Yes ..play with location and look at it in and out a lot.
    As to circles .. I remember reading that the forces in the substrates caused the fids to migrate the bearing of the obtuse thread locals to waft!
    Trying to sound smart ... sounds more smart alec. The circles pull the forces mo' better ... I read that.
    Octagons should be just fine. The math guys could explain better. I just know that my circles have always worked.

    It is an ice palace ... I love that. You win a Crunchie and a cuppa!!
    The sewing is dodgy but strong. I ain't into pretty!!!! Someday, sewing class.

    Looks nice Shug, real nice.

    Mine has only one pull out (because the tab was already there), but two definitely makes for a more spacious interior.

    Nice going!

    I always look forward to another Shug production video, but these pictures provide lots of fine detail--especially the close-up of the side pull-out.

    With all the talk of a 'junglin' show, surprised clearskyblue didn't win a lion bar...

    Or better, my favorite, milk chocolate hobnobs--one nibble and you're nobbled! Goes good with a cuppa. Yes, lived there (96-98).
