I'm looking for some breathable ripstop nylon for a DIY hammock and maybe some other projects. I'd pay around $4.00-$5.00 shipped for 4-5 yrds of nice stuff in good color. I'd prefer low key colors (camo, olive green, black) but this is not a requirement.
Please let me know the width of the material. Also, If the fabric has DWR or some other finish please let me know the finish weight per sq yard.

While I know that you're looking to perhaps buy direct from a member, it's worth your while, if you haven't already, to check out DIY Gear Supply as they've got a good selection of 1st and 2nd quality 1.1 nylon right around your price range.Originally Posted by silverfoot
I concur...also, www.ripstopbytheroll.com is another place to check out.
I just ordered 30 yds of pure finish coyote brown 1.1 ripstop nylon second from magna fabrics for about 66 cents a yard including shipping. So if your willing to order a ton, you can get it for dirt cheap.
I will most likely place an order with DIYGS if nothing works out on here. I had considered making an order from magnafabrics but I would have to place an order for way more than I'll need even though its by far their prices are very low. I was hoping someone around here might have made an order like that and had some extra around. Figured if I could get it a few bucks cheaper than DIYGS and they could unload unused fabric it would be a win/win.
and thanks paulie for the link. hadn't heard of them yet.
I recall having ordered some 1.1 woodland from DYIGS when it use to be call Backwoods Daydreamer.
I will have to check the quantity that I have. It could be more than 5 yrds.
If you are still interested I'm will to work a deal.
I checked my Inventory and I have the following;
12 yards - 1.1 Woodland camo
20 yards - 1.1 Olive Green.
I'll need to verify material width, but I recall it's minimally 60"
