I have a new .75 DCF duomid that I want to add an integrated DCF floor and bugnet to. Has anyone ever done this? If so, how?

I would suggest building the floor and bug net as a unit and then adding strips of dcf around the perimeter where you want to connect the tarp and floor/bug net. Then join the two by sewing or double sided tape. It will easier to sew the netting to the strips of dcf as well as dealing with any mistakes. The dcf strips would be sized to fit the duomid which allows you to deal with the stretch of the bug net rather than having to do it while wrestling with the bulk of the duomid.
