    Thats Australian dollars - in US its $134.00. Yes, it's still a lot, but there aren't many cottage venders there and many materials we take for granted are unavailable in Oz.

    Yes freight is the killer for us over here, when importing fabrics etc. Evan at Terra Rosa makes some nice gear.

    Evan uses Tyvek 1443r for his tyvek tarps, which is a little lighter and more fabric like than the hard structure Tyvek.

    They're very nice tarps - and strong too. I've a couple of friends that have Evans tyvek tarps - they love them.
