    I followed the link to the #2 snakeskins. At the bottom of the page it says they will ship you #4 snakeskins.

    The link looks like the same guy on ebay, It's a bugger as the large diameter on the #4's will be to large for my small tarp, I don't have access to a sewing machine or the material, Bugger...

    A sewing machine is not required, just makes things quicker; hand sewing will suffice- all you need is one straight seam, if you heat seal the edges to avoid raveling. Try it and see! KM

    This might be an application where iron on adhesive strips might be useful. If you don't want to hand sew the seam it might be worth a try.
    I may be slow... But I sure am gimpy.
