This is a DIY Tarp that I build specifically for hammock camping in 3 season use. However, the square tarp design is a very versatile one, and it can be pitched in many different ways on the ground with trekking poles. I went with Membrane Silpoly for a material. It doesn’t have as much stretch as silnylon, and it doesn’t absorb water or suffer from UV degradation as much.

How much extra did you allow for the French seam? 5/8” or more?
Love this channel, great information and passion goes into your videos. Keep up the great work.
Great job! Most guys can’t sew worth a darn. You did good, from design to completion. Congratulations!
Nice tarp and camping rig. How’d you do with the elk?
Wow..
That’s impressive.
You’re pretty smart guy.
You should consider holding a seminar
I’ve used to seal a poly tarp clear grease bicycle grease fur gars yes it can be a little messy but in time it will stop when I was wiping down real good with a rag and it gets into the joints and it actually does a better job than the silicone to silicone won’t work itself into the joints

Sorry, my question is not about the tarp, which looks great, but about the hammock. I cannot sleep on my back for very long, so is it even possible to sleep on your side or stomach in one of those?
