Specs for tarp lines

[jennalyn216]

Is there a guide or tutorial on here somewhere about how to make a continuous ridgeline, pull-outs, etc., for a tarp? I've got 100' of dyneema and I want to make a ridgeline like the one in this video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C-IkTg4z6UY), but I'm not sure how long to make it, what to do for the pullouts, etc. (This is for a mamajamba.) Help?

Thanks!

I use 2 pieces of Dutchware for my tarp w/continuous ridgeline as seen here

One Dutch Hook and one Tarp Flyz - I think I have my ridgeline at about 35 feet - this will let me put up my tarp around 2 2' in diameter trees 20' apart. I wouldn't go any shorter than 30 feet. You have to remember that the will start at the tarp, go around the tree back to the tarp, down the length of the tarp and around the other tree and back to the tarp. As for pullouts mine are either 6 or 8 feet each with line locks and a bungee loop to keep the SilNylon tight.

You'll find more information elsewhere on that same site.
