DIY Tarp Snakeskin

Tarp Snakeskins are worth the money because it allows for a faster set up and take down of camp. More importantly they can help you to avoid dragging your tarp on the ground and possibly getting a tear in it because it snags on something. If you order a snakeskin by the time you buy it and pay for shipping it can cost between $25-$30. This solution only cost $1 so that gives you $29 to spend on other gear or to put gas in your car and go out and enjoy the gear you have. In my case it was a cheap way to try one to see if I liked it enough to make one from material or buy one.

Excellent. Thanks for the smart, frugal idea.

Thanks. Hopefully it helps someone

[@edmundmuyot7415]

Wow that’s an amazing idea. Thanks

[@mcnhammocks6218]

Thanks. Whish I could take credit for it but I ran across the idea on KZbin a few years ago , just passing it on. They will eventually tear but for $1 it's cheap enough just to buy another one.

Thank you for sharing this. A group of friends are just getting into hammocking . We'll all be giving this a go.

[@mcnhammocks6218]

Nice ! Of course these aren't as durable as the snakeskins you can buy , eventually you'll get tears in it but you cant beat it for $1

[@parfproduction1345]

@@mcnhammocks6218 agree nice jumping off point. I picked up a black curtain sheer at wal mart $6 should be able to make 2 complete 2 piece snakeskin from 1 sheer I hope . Thanks again for the inspiration.

WHAT THE!?

[@brushbum7508]

What pattern & Manufacturer is this tarp ? Please, I looked at the site that you showed in your Florida tarp video but didn't see it there. TAKE CARE..

[@mcnhammocks6218]

The tarp in the DIY snakeskin video is a winter tarp that we made and the pattern is Hexcam. Unfortunately we moved and we are shut down right now until we get a shop up and running again which probably won't be until this fall. If you follow us on any of our social media's or here on KZbin we will be announcing when we will be opening back up. We won't be making hammocks any more but we will be making tarps for hammock camping as well as regular tarp camping and bushcrafting. Another thing you can do is go to our site and sign up for the email list and I will email everyone with the date we will open as soon as I know for sure.
