I want to make myself a tarp/ shelter thing to some specific design that I've thought up - where can I get some decent waterproof fabric from?

Are you bothered about weight? I have a roll of old-style "taslan" Gore-tex in dark green that you'd be welcome to a bit of.

A few folks on BearBones have been making tarps and might be able to point you inthe right direction [url= http://bearbonesbikepacking.co.uk/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=2198&p=21749&hilit=myog#p20629 ]for example[/url]

Over the years I have bought various fabrics (and zips, fasteners, etc) from:

I'd certainly be keen to see pics of the making!
