silnylon tarps

Quoted message said:

does anyone know any uk camping stores (online) that sell silnylon
tarps?
i have a (i think) 5' x 7' and im thinking of going bigger to at least
6x10 or 8x8... i need something wider than 5' to get better coverage
over my hammock...
but I cant find them anywhere (ie: cotswolds, nevissport, etc)...

### have you tried Kathmandu Trekking? They do all sorts of tarptents,
bivvy's and basha's. They don't appear to have a website but the
phone/fax no is: 01372 454773
They're at Gt Bookham, Surrey
Or you could buy the material from Pennine Outdoor or similar and sew it
yourself 😉

I would but you cant get single pieces of silnylon that big 😉 sewing a
tarp creates a weakness, you really need a single piece.

pointnorth.co.uk only seem to sell stuff in 150cm widths.. so youd
have three bits sewn together, Id rather not have that bother 😉
pennine outdoor is the same, 150cm widths...
