Hey guys viper here!
Well laity I have been attracted to he thought of a Cuban hex tarp upgrading from my silnylon 30d one.
So first of all people who have made Cuban tarps I need some help!
So I like my tarps being around 11ftx10ish, so let me see if if an explain this right.
I have made a few tarps before out of silnylon and a problem I always run into are sewing the cat cuts and making them not wrinkle up. I sew them fine just they get wrinkled up no matter how many pins I use. So a question I have is how deep do I make the cat cuts with Cuban? Or is it the same? And I dont plan on doing a whole lot of sewing on this, I wana just make the hem buy using the doubble sided tape. I wana use the doubble sided Cuban tape from zpacks would that stuff work? And if so how do I make the hems on the tarp cat cuts look nice and not have the "wrinkles" on them?
So questions summed up.
1.will the doubble sided Cuban tape from zpacks work for the ridge seam/hems?
2.how do I "hem" the cat cuts without making them all wrinkles everywhere?
Thanks a tone guys! Makes me nervous on this because it's so expensive
