I wrote on here about the Hammock & Tarp made for me by Tenth Wonder to my specifications. The one thing I forgot was to request was side pulls on the tarp, I spoke to Art Barskey who sent me 1.5m of the same material + some D rings and tape.

I researched the subject of pulls outs re strength/tearing off etc. both on this site and the internet.
Eventually I cut 4 x 6" circles of material, stuck them inside the tarp with liquid seam sealer then sewed all around the edge on our sewing machine,all the time dreading sewing the tarp to it's self as it is 4.5m x 4m . I then sewed the tape and D rings to the out side of the tarp then covered the stitches with liquid seam sealer.

When it stops raining I will spray the whole tarp with Fabsil Gold though a brief test let in no water.
