Busted. Thanks Mike.Originally Posted by MAD777
Mike, you're a gear junky with no willpower!
Congrats on a fine tarp though!
I may have some FS posts before long both to replenish the wallet and make room in the closet. The only problem is when I do that, it will just show additional examples of past episodes of limited to absent willpower.
Are these available yet?

Don't worry UncleMJM, we're all about the same, so we totally understand. Your in the right place.

I just ordered my 4 season Cuben Tarp finally. Took advantage of the awesome Black Friday deal. That being said, I would turn right around and buy another in the camo. I would definitely be interested in one Mr. Crow. I'd have to decide if I'd get another 4 Season or just a Hex in the camo. Very glad to hear that it will come in the standard .51 Cuben. I guess I know what I'll be buying for the Hammock Gear Christmas Sale ;-)

Well, I didn't know if it was ok, but I ordered mine, and told them to hold off on making it until the Cuban Camo comes in. Then they have the money up front to pay for the roll. I can pay the difference later.
I am in the market for a HG standard cuben with doors and would be happy to upgrade the order to camo if possible. Left a msg for HG on their site this morning.

I also sent HG an email re-stating my commitment to my a tarp if they could get the camo in 0.51 oz weight.
I would live to have it by mid-January for the big Florida hang, but they gotta be swamped right now after the Black Friday sales. But I'm still hoping!!!

Hey everyone,
For those that do not know yet I am the clown who got the ball rolling on the Cuban camo so I have been working with Adam to get this going.
Adam took a few minutes today to give me an update on the fabric even with being slammed with orders from the Black Friday sale. The elves are hard at work and there is no sign of an elfen strike even with all of you piling on orders on Black Friday.
So here is the skinny, the manufacturer is remaking some samples for Adam out of the .51 fabric, they are scheduled to be shipped on Monday and should be in hand on Wednesday. after approval of the samples a run of fabric will be made and then we should have Cuban camo tarps shortly.
Additionally with the .51 fabric being used there will be some additional weight added to the Cuban from the dye, apparently the fabric is estimated to be at .61 i think this should make my winter palace with 12' ridge line at 10oz maybe less. Frankly there will not be another camo tarp anywhere with that much coverage at that weight and as a bonus will not absorb additional water weight.
I am ohhh so happy
I'm getting excited to see this! Thanks for the update, Dogbone!
