Boo-ya! Score Baby!!

[stoikurt]

I live in N.Y.(upstate) and travel the western part of the state fairly regularly. While I'm not a huge fan of Wally World, I do use it as a convenient rest stop on my wanderings.To date I have purchased approx. 300 yds of $1ripstop @ WW. I have only been able to find Sylnylon only once. I use the dwr and uncoated for all sorts of projects (I am Scoutmaster for a local Boy Scout Troop). I have had a hard time deciding what to use the 10 yds. of syl for. I just can't bring myself to cut it.

A tarp is probably one of the best uses for sil. And you've got just the right amount to make a BlackCat Tarp.

Or snake skins or a Black Bishop Sack or stuff sacks or........

Hooch. You suck

I was just in that WM the other day and came up empty. I did see some DWR polyester rip stop at the Nicholasville Rd WM Thursday. I passed on it so maybe it's still there.

Good score man.

I went for a day hike at RRG today and on the way back to town, I stopped in at the 2 other Wally Worlds with fabric departments. The Northside store had squat, not a daggone thing. Nicholasville Rd Wal-Mart was a different story. I left with 12 more yards of silver-gray sil. That's da bomb! I've got a total of 23 yards of sil at home now. HC, after the holidays you're gonna have to help me find something to do with all this sil. I'm thinking a tarp a BB Sack and snake skins maybe. I'll buy the beer (I got hooked on Sam Adams Cherry Wheat) and bring some sil for you, too if you want it.

Edit: The Richmond Rd. Wally-World has a ton of what appears to me to be 19. DWR in the same silver-gray color, maybe a little darker, in case you're interesed

Hooch, good ole buddy, you musta brought me good luck. I stopped in my WalMart today, and after a year + of constant checking, I finally scored some dark silver gray Sil. I got 12 yard and was so excited. Of course once again my wife thinks I'm a freak. I was talking to the girl that works in that department and she said she has seen it in there before but it goes pretty quick. I gave her my card and asked if she would call me anytime they got more in and she said she would. I kinda doubt it though.

So now, maybe a winter tarp is in order. I just finished my RMS Clone last night. I'll try to get some pics tomorrow and add them to that thread.

So where's that dancing banana when you need him?

Glad I could be of assistance. I agree, we need to start an online petition to the mods and administrator to add the dancing banana to HF.

Grats! Time to hit more WM's around here.

Yeah, my wife makes fun of me also.

Oh well, such as it is with the un-enlightened.
