Just snagged a great deal on a flat tarp for a crew going to Philmont Scout Ranch next summer.  Thanks David!

As of 3 pm monday the site is down. My shopping cart host is upgrading the system. Should be back up soon. If not, I will honor bpl deals tomorrow too.

Thanks, Dave.

Just finished trying to place an order, and couldn’t finish ‘cuz this message popped up:

“We’re sorry, an error occurred on 12/14/2015 at 16:08:04. This error event has been logged. We apologize for the inconvenience; please try your action again. If you continue to experience this error, please contact Quick Shopping Cart customer support at qsc-support@starfieldtech.com.”

Will try again tomorrow.  Meanwhile, I have this question:  Does the CatBird 1 have a rear beak (or flat panel) as is shown for the pictures of the rear of the CatBird 2?  Thanks.

The site appears to be up as of 5:19 PM Pacific time

Will set up site to work with coupon tomorrow.

The Cat Bird Tarps have small beaks on both ends.

Just wanted to share that I just received my 10×10 30D silnylon tarp w/extra tie-outs and it’s great! The extra tie-outs are positioned exactly as I wanted them, and David even added mitten hooks where it made sense, without me asking.

Can’t wait to go out and try it out!

Thanks David!

P.S.: I imagine SilNet is the best product for seam-sealing this material, right?

Edit: Just found a note inside which confirms I should use SilNet.

For those keeping track: the tarp weighs in at 527.4 g (18.6 oz) including 24 reinforced tie-outs and 2 mitten hooks (not yet seam-sealed). David lists this tarp as 18.5 oz (default) on his site; so considering mine has 4 extra tie-outs + 2 mitten hooks, I’d say he’s right on the money.

The included stuff-sack weighs in at 12.7 g (0.45 oz) and it’s generously sized (very easy to stuff tarp + cord + stakes in), for a total of 540.1 g (19.05 oz).

Stitching looks excellent.

Thanks,

I have a batch of second quality silnylon, 15 yards $39.

I post here cause something changed in BPL is not allowing me to start new threads.
