Clear tarp or Clear blue tarp

[DawnSuiter]

Ripstop nylon, used often in my "other" flying life! you can buy it by the roll.. or better yet, try and find an old RAIN fly from a tent. Or ebay for old F111 parachutes or round military parachutes.

We used the mesh circle from our old broken trampoline to cover out coop yard. it "breathes" and allows air to pass thru, keeps out the hard heavy rains, gives tons of shade , and the springy coil things are geat to use as anchors to hold it down - we just hook 'em into the fencing and done!!

I like the old parachute idea.
Or,
GO to WalMart and get their silver tarps.
Just as inexpensive, they last as long as you need them to (and as long as anything exposed to the elements, 24/7) and they arent that cheesy blue color.

I use the mesh tarps made for covering loads on trucks. They break 70% of the direct sunlight but don't cut down on air circulation appreciably. 10'X12' are available at Harbor Freight for around $30.00 each.

Nice set up you have there. What is supporting your mesh tarp?
