I have a large tarp which works quite nicely in bad weather, but I no longer want to pack it when the weather is supposed to be good. So, for a "just in case" tarp, I looked at making an asymetrical diamond a bit larger than the Hennesey version. Since my big tarp is Spinnaker, I wanted to go with either Spinn or cuben for this one to realize a real weight advantage. After studying bonding techniques and sewing problems, as well as the price of cuben, I decided to stick with Spinn.
However, thru-hiker is out of Spinn right now, so I cruised over to MountainLaurelDesigns.com to see if Ron would sell some of his Spinn (which is the same as the one thru-hike sells). Well, I realized that Ron sells the same tarp I was going to make AND sells the finished tarp cheaper than I can buy just the Spinnaker fabric, let alone the other do-dads needed. I know that Ron does fabulous work.
So, here is my question. Does anyone have any experience with this tarp when used on a Warbonnet Blackbird?
