and embed some kind of a tension
member in them,
See..thats the whole problem..I just want something that doesnt require
any poles because I almost always camp where there are trees and the
poles add a lot of weight.
Don't need no steenking poles. . . .
So what's the "tension member" if not a pole?
Sorry for the engineering bull****. The 'tension member' can just be a cord
or cable passing through a tunnel sewn in the edge. Just like the hardware
store blue tarps, except, to make the membrane work, curved.
