70D is usually a 1.9 nylon from the places that I have ordered from. WB does use 1.1 and has a listed weight on his sight for a double layer hammock, MYOD!!!!!!

Your shipping is based on length and width vs poundage..so that is why the increase in shipping. Cloth is probably on cardboard tube.

I ordered 20+ yards of the 30d ripstop from them a couple weeks ago and the transaction went smoothly. I had corresponded with several forum members before placing the order and had been advised that the fabric would probably be shipped on a roll, could have writing on small sections, and might be several lengths instead of one continous roll. My order had none of those. The fabric was packed in a plastic bag, not on a roll. After inspecting all 20+ yards the only blemish found was a section about 2 yards long where the pattern was slightly blotchy most likely from too much dye. There was a tag attached to the fabric indicating that it was intended for the production of military poncho liners.

Well do you like the weight and looks of it? If I recall the poncho liner fabric is very soft and almost has a translucent appearance. But nice!

If someone sets up a group buy of this stuff count me in for 20 yards @ $2.50/yard (to account for shipping. shipping & all)

However, I'm just to busy with work & family to organize the buy myself. I'll keep an eye on the group buy forum.

I'd also be interested in 20 yards if anyone is organizing a group buy and would ship the fabrics to Germany as well. I'd so much love to make a digital camo diy-siliconized tarp and much more gear!

They still list several 23-33 yd rolls if a group buy doesn't happen.

As gdw pointed out, the roll I received had some messed up places in the first 4 feet, but the rest of my 24 yd roll was in good shape. I'm sorry to report that I haven't used any of it yet.

I'm glad I found this. I'm purchasing some and can wait until Monday, Sept 12, if anyone is interested in a group buy. I know I'm new to this forum so if someone else wants to organize a buy before then, please do and I'll be in! Otherwise if anyone posts or sends me a PM before noon Eastern time Monday I'll be happy to include it in my order.

Pricing will likely come to about $2/yd plus shipping.

Just in case, this is for ACU digital camo 30d Ripstop (http://store.magnafabrics.com/ACU_Ca...r_Ripstop.html)

I just received 35 yards. I'm going to try some single layer hammocks for myself and the kids. Stuff sacks, and uq's to come later, with a little practice. The material came on a cardboard tube in a plastic bag. 68" wide and supper thin.
