Found this website last nite. Ray jardine and his sew your own gear kits for tarps ,quilts etc. The tarp design is appealing to me, a basic flat tarp with beaked ends.

Wondering if anyone here on Rokslide has made and used one of these tarps and how they perform.

Thanks for the reply BBob. I ordered his book with instructions on how to make the tarp. I am going to make one and probably use it with a light breathable bivy like the Borah gear one.
