Sounds good to me....

I'm thinking about having pole pockets at the 2 inboard stake outs for 2internal pole mods.
Then this tarp would be a quonset hut / party tarp

I used to own, a OES,,10' x 12' square tarp of grey silnylon,,had 5 tie outs on the sides total of each side, and 2 panel pull tie outs on each side, and of course the 2 RL tie outs (one on each end as it was 12' long RL)...worked perfect if you staked the center 3 of the 5 side tie outs, and then you could have almost perfectly closed doors, especially with a gatherend end hammock. It was perfectly square also, not cat cut. Wished more than once, I had never gotten rid of that tarp as you could even use it for car camping over your pic nic table or in front of your hang spot for hanging with telescopic standing poles and tie outs off the poles for cooking in bad weather..such a versatile tarp being square. I have been seriously thinking of getting hold of Marty to make me one just like I am describing as its easer to make than cat cut and more versatile in my book. I won't order another tarp off OES for various reasons, but it was a well made tarp, and Marty should consider one offered like I am describing.

Sounds cool Acer. After seeing how big his 10x10 is, a 12x10 would be Wicked big.
That would be the ultimate "gang" tarp.

We have the same tarps mountain gout

....I don't think gargoyle is making tarps right as I found out today....might have preliminary jumped the gun on a potential collectors gear

...it will depend on the weights .

The New Tarp is on the Wilderness Logics site!
It's still called "New Tarp" and I'm gonna order mine tomorrow (good Wife willing).
Like Huey says "It's Hip to be Square"!
