    Fabric dump

    There are about 6 Wal-marts in this area alone. One by one they took the fabric off of the shelves. But there is one that didn't, it looks like they took all of the stock and are selling it untill its gone. The $1.50 per yard bin is not a bin but several shelves (looks like the stock from the other stores were dumped on this store with no lables). The whole problem is you are not sure of what you are getting. But polyester is OK for hammocks and nylon is what is what is the best I hope I can pick the right ones. I got several bolts of fabric for a song. the last trip was what I believe is nylon but for $8.00 for 13 yards. This mother load I feel will end in time but for now I'm stocking up.
    I would feel more optimistic about a bright future for man if he spent less time proving that he can outwit Nature and more time tasting her sweetness and respecting her seniority. - E. B. White (1899 - 1985)

    Id prob say 3 out of 6 around here still have fabric sections, none that are close though. I have been to everyone and never found any silnylon like i have heard. Just some ripstop. I think one time i did finally find some but it was only a yard or so. Not enough to make another tarp with.
