I usually fold the tape and cross it over
Let us all know how that holds up
As we are still [ STILL] renovating I can't even find my fabric to make my own tarp
What's the little doohickey you are using?

It's all an experiment on this one including binding the ridgeline - will let you know. The hardware is a Silkworm 0.5g

Interested in the way the ridgeline works as I was going to do something very similar on the old cotton sheets fly I was planning for the old PaddyMade japara tent

How did that corner tape hold up to the test?

So far so good. I have had it out in some heavy wind in the backyard and it held up fine. I have made a slight change with how I sew them but it essentially remains the same.
