Got it. Thx!
Sewing class is perfect place to tackle that tarp! Go for it.
So where do you guys get your sil? Looks like Ed's price has almost tripled based on what's in the BlackCat instructions. The stuff I find locally (untreated ripstop) is only 3' wide.
Wow it did triple, I guess that's the end of the $4 sil.
Here is the materials section of the HF links page, it has many fabric suppliers. That way you can shop around/compare. You can also navigate there by choosing Links->Materials.
Good luck with your next project!
