Hi Hi
I've recently lengthend my tarp - it was 2,8m which I felt was a bit short for my hammock now it is 4.1m. I reckon I could now fold the ends in to close the tarp of to create a more contained shelter if need be.
I thought of running a zip along the edges, but I'm not keen on the idea of a zip for visual purposes.
I thought of a toggle system, but if done like a jacket there will be multiple toggles to fiddle with to open/close. I remember seeing a method where the straps were fed through each other with one toggle at the end to hold the whole lot in place - so it's quick to open, although relatively long winded to close. My google skills have failed me and I cannot find any pictures of suitable toggle closures for my tarp for reference.
How do you close your tents/ tarps?? any suggestions??
Cheers now.
