    I tried a cheap hub blind I got with points. The material is garbage . Rips, leaks ect,ect. So bought more 600D material like I used for sit drag mod. Got it at a cheaper price 6.50 a yard and made a rain cap for the blind. No sew using gorilla tape as seam binder and left over craft ribbon for tie downs. Made it fit by folding and taping corners.

    That is a great idea I have some old blinds I may try this with. I usually just line the inside with landscape fabric but I think this a great idea

    Maybe I need to pony up the cash or go this route. My newer blinds aren't even water tight. Well done.
