tarps
 
Anyone recommend a good lightweight tarp with flap on one end for lumber. Internet search found a material called u scan, light and tough. Also 18 oz vinyl with 10 oz sides. What do you think? thanks. Buddy MERRY CHRISTMAS

Be careful of the so called "light weight" stuff as they are not all equally durable. I use 18oz centers with 13oz drops and they have served me well.

Bought some at Peaks Tarps made of cordura material. Company is also called peakstarps.

18 oz. all around =If you can bench press your own weight 20 times go for it !!! If it is light it is good :)

I got my lightweight tarps from Harps Tarps and I like them so far. I've actually gotten two compliments on them as strange as it seems. I'm getting ready to get some steel tarps and I'll be going back to them for sure.

Oh man I can't wait to start throwing tarps. I'm 5'6 165 lbs, and out of shape badly! I'll be huffing and puffing more then the lefties when Israel ramps up her war machine.
