    Source for Cordura?

    Wonder where I can buy a small amount of Cordura or something like it?

    I only need about a square yard. Needs to be black, durable and either waterproof or at least water resistant, i.e., a nylon or poly blend.

    I'm making something like a saddle for a motorcycle. It has to be durable

    Like this:



    The piece in the middle of the seat. You effectively widen your seat with a pad slipped in a sleeve in the middle and water bottles in a sleeve on each side.

    Do a search on for Cordura Fabric on ebay. Textile Specialist Direct has many kinds of Cordura and will sell by the yard. They have a pretty big selection too. I was looking at using that to make a hammock at one point believe it or not! I never ended up ordering from them, but they have 100% positive feedback after over 12,000 transactions!

    Thanks, I found that ebay site about the time you posted about it. Just ordered a bit.

    Appreciate it!
