    5 tarps?! :eek: #### i thought 3 was bad enough... seems like a whole lot of work to accomplish a easy task.

    I guess you don’t have to worry about heavy tarps that way. That’s a super good looking tarp job.

    I have to admit the more I look at that tarp job the more impressed I get. How long did that take anyway?

    I think it was 2 hours at least. 5 tarps is ridiculou plus they don't have any flaps! They aren't drop tarps or traditional lumber tarps. The theory is that they are all purpose and can be used on a variety of freight that isn't square.

    You know they say state of mind can play an important role in the healing process.
    Think an extended recovery period in the Caribbean could be just the thing to raise the spirits and speed up the healing process.

    I'd rather have your tarps than my carnival colored set

    I’d love to see a picture of the back of that load. Those are so hard for me to tarp and make look good when it slopes down so low in the back.

    Don't feel bad . I stood there scratching my head for a couple minutes to figure out how to get it pinned up. Did the best I could. Always tough when there multiple tiers dropping down the back. 20250404_134052.jpg
