Sweet setup :) How do you like the snow peak chairs? I've been eyeing them to replace my kelty ones but not sure...

Well I finally broke down and purchased and received the large Hexa tarp proset. Opened up the box and laid out everything only to find out the instruction manual is in Japanese or something similar. Not a problem figuring things out from looking at the pictures it just struck me ad odd there wasn't an english version of the instructions when other instruction manuals come in 8 different languages.

Took it to the local park and set it up once to know for sure and I dig it! We will actually use it this weekend and I'll get some proper photos of it.

Yup - so far none of the stuff I have bought came with an English or as they say in the trade "Localized" directions.
I find the USA website has videos that help out a lot. At least least on my recent purchases.

The small stuff I have bought through REI, like backpacking stoves, etc has had multi-lingual instructions, but not the stuff from the US web site. Or dealers for the IGT stuff.

I have had the set for a couple of years now. Great bit of kit. There are actually some Snow Peak video's on putting up and breaking down the tarp. That should help :)
They can be found on the Japanese Snow Peak site. I will see if I can post a link!

Enjoy!

We had a thunderstorm come through in the late afternoon with some pretty gusty wind and a sizable amount of rain and the "hexa tarp" preformed flawlessly!

The wife loves it!

Awesome to hear :)

Still have to get a sp tarp use my Kelty but one thing I hate about the kelty no UV coating so gets hot when under the sun
Once ya get it out on a hot day would love to hear if it's cooler :)
My old canvas was good for that :)

Not for a SP (yet) system, but just finished these for a Partner Stove and Folding Table. Both are made from our OD 12oz. waxed canvas, #10 YKK zipper and 4 panel Riggers Webbing. Ones 22x16x6 and the other is 22x16x3.

Looking to have an SP version soon!

Take care and be safe.

CactusJK-

We offer them as a custom piece right now due to the different way people want the lids and handles. The photo is of the side loader version with 4 panel riggers webbing handles. We also can make them in the top loader version with additional handles sewn on top and around the bag for 360 degree grab points.

Please lmk if you have any other questions! Thanks.
